You can't trust your post exam instincts. The curve, self doubt, adrenaline... whatever your instincts are (and they won't always be wrong) you still can't trust them. Just move on (to drinking, studying, or study-drinking depending on your circumstances).

I think you can trust your instincts w/r/t whether you did better or worse than last semester. That doesn't tell you anything about your grade but you can feel better/worse than last semester. I agree with disco about moving on but take a few hours (watch a movie, hang out at the bar, or engage in relentless masturbation) for yourself.

I had the most horrible nightmares last night. I couldn't sleep... My brain kept telling me that there were issues in the exam that I didn't see.... I hope I am just paranoid, and that I did not do horrible!

I'll believe it when I see the transcript.

Onward and upward! You guys can't go very much further upward, but you know what I mean.

Exam prep group meets in 1 hour to rehash the exam over drinks. Go or no go? I desperately need some drinks, and I don't think there are other people I can drink with on a Tuesday afternoon - especially because many of my classmates have 8 hour take homes.

I thought so.

I guess drinking alone while on TLS is better.

con law

i didn't feel like i drilled it (and i think you know when this has happened), but i didnt do as terrible as i thought

still not so happy... sitting there in the middle off an exam and coming to the realization you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about is an awful feeling. but i think i pulled something decent out of my head by the end. i dunno. we'll see.

Screw all of this, I wish we were all drinking right now. I have had enough of torts outlining, but torts hasn't had enough of me yet.

Drink for drinks (online)?

I have Miller High Life, PBR, Guinness Draught, California Cabs and Zins, Knob, Singleton and Laphroaig.

Do we have a match?

But still better than drinking with my studymates rehashing the exam, right?

Edit: Damn it I think I'm going to meet up with 'em. Cheers!

You will regret this. There is no way you won't.

Two hours until test time...try to cram shit into my brain or just relax, eat pizza, and wait?

I took con. law my first semester and it was my worst grade.

Relax. There is at least a two hour relax zone before and after.

Relax. There is at least a two hour relax zone before and after.

I'm doing it wrong then. I honor the two hour before zone, but then I have a two-hour "try not to puke and tell yourself it was better than it was" zone immediately after.

There is a solution to this. Pay heed to the activities of your colleague uptown, minus the rehashing.

And it was better than you think it was. I actually know how much you studied.

*Hugs apper123 and cries* I feel the same. Especially since I loved the subject and wanted to do well. And my classmates thought I would. But I sat the test. And I know.

[stinger35]

I already wrote most of what I wanted to say in the Pennoyer thread, but since I started this one....


someone please tell me I am gonna do well since I was first in my class last semester? I am such a self doubter. I imagine I sound like such a fucking idiot. But, Ive been drinkin. so ok.

That is rough, but you will be awesome! Just be glad yours isn't over Memorial Day Weekend, as mine is!
