At a T50, where people don't really have jobs and are also too lemming to realize their grades no longer matter actually have doubled down, and I think there will be a ton of well prepared finals. Then, a really phoned in exam will stand so far apart it might be at risk of C territory or worse. This is my fear.
At T10.
Have SA.
More afraid that I'm too dumb to be here in the first place (stttriver tttransfer).

B+ curve, but only classes with >40 people are curved.

Fuck that. My schools curve is a B, and it only gets marginally higher for smaller classes. But, since most of my classes are huge anyway, the curve is doing nothing for me. I think the highest curve I'll have this semester is a 3.1 or a 3.2.

I meant to come here but accidentally clicked on the 1L exam prep thread. I almost had a panic attack.

I should give someone a list of my classes so this doesn't happen.

change that to "30 pages" and "tonight at midnight" and we're on the same page.
