One of my current classes literally has nothing but group projects. Once you turn one in, he assigns the groups for the next one. It never ends. Do these guys not realize how difficult it is to get 4-6 college seniors (most of which have part time jobs) plus full school schedules to all be able to meet multiple times over the course of a week? shite sucks baw

Cancer, world famine, ISIS, rape, extreme feminism, but yeah group projects are pretty bad.

I hated group projects. There is inevitably the person who does not care and you end up having to do that sob's work.

I remember those sucking in undergrad. In grad school the crappier students were fewer and far between.

It's even worse in grad school when everyone in the group has a full-time job plus a travel schedule.

Son, if you can't manage to do this, good luck when you get in the real world.

In the real working world, you'll have these regularly (usually several at one time - with team members spread across hemispheres) all while doing your regular daily job.

I always just took the hardest part or whatever the others didn't want to do so I could blow off group meetings at coffee shops without getting shite for it.

I'd always bail on the group and get an A anyways. It truly helped me get places in life.
