One Down…

No word of a lie: I finished 60 questions on a Developmental Psychology test in under 10 minutes.

I was the first one finished, the first one who handed it in, and the first one to leave the room.

We had a full hour allotted to complete the test.

It felt really, really, REALLY good.

There were two questions on the test that I flinched over, not positive I had the right answers. I figure there might be two more that I didn’t realize were wrong. I’d be happy with a 70% mark, but I think I may have zipped past that.

AWESOME.

Tomorrow I have a test in my Group Process class. Actually, I believe it’s more a “quiz” than a test. But I’m going to curl up on the bed (in my jammas, yes!) and read the textbook a few times before dinner.

Then one test on Thursday, a paper to write for Monday, and I’m done with the big assignments for a bit.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

    Not to say I told you so, but I told you so.

    Please repeat after me: “Community college tests are geared towards the lowest common denominator.”

    You are going to ace the course and with minimal effort. And I’ll say I told you so at the end. LOL

          Well, honestly I have to. The alternative implies that the same is not true of University, and also somewhat looks down it’s nose at College grads. I take issue with both. Certainly there are programs at colleges that are, shall we say, less than difficult. There are others, like the one I was in, where 80 people start the course, and a few years later, only 16 graduate. I think it’s safe to say they didn’t coddle the dummies. Were there a few bell curves thrown in every now and then, sure. But try to tell me that doesn’t happen in University.

            I learned absolutely nothing in university – well, nothing of worth at least.

            A good part of that was circumstances (my own, I mean) but a lot of it was also because of the environment. I don’t thrive in a huge classroom – some people definitely do, but not me.

            College seems to be making things sink into my brain – either because I’m in the right frame of mind to do it, now, or because of the classes/school themselves or, alternately, all of the above.

            Either way, I’m glad I’m doing it. :)

    I’m pretty sure there are two courses I’m going to have to work REALLY hard on – Sociology (for the tests, not for the assignments) and Law. The latter because I have to know all the various laws pertaining to (seemingly) everything in all of society, all the time, everywhere, ALL OF IT NOW NOW NOW. ;)
