The Verdict Is In
I went to bed last night (or early this morning) at 1:00 and got up again at 5:00. My pre-econ quiz routine for the last 4 or 5 quizzes has been to rise at 5:00, get dressed, and go to the university to study in the lobby of the 4th floor. It’s usually quiet, and I can ambush my prof with my questions when he arrives.
My stomach was rather upset with the impending quiz. About 10 minutes before class started, I headed down the hall to his office for a final clarification before heading into class. He heard my footsteps as I came down the hall and greeted me with a large grin, saying, “How did I know it would be you?”
The quiz felt like a comprehensive final, involving formulas from long ago. I was utterly nervous and the 25 minute deadline didn’t seem nearly long enough. The prof gave us an additional 10 minutes to complete the quiz. I handed it in with many misgivings, and he promised to have it graded by noon.
After my last class of the day, I landed a computer lab. I went directly to his website and, true to his word, the grades were posted. To my complete astonishment, I got a perfect score on that last quiz. I think it may be the only perfect score that I’ve gotten. My relief knows no bounds! There will be no econ final for me!!! Praise the Lord!
Unfortunately, I’m taking Statistical Analysis in the spring semester. I had a choice of three different classes…and it sounded like the lesser of three evils. Can you imagine?
