Think so - he was so lame and graded everything so strict even though it was a damn elective.

Ended up scoring a 70 on the final to pass the class with a 70, so there's that


CE at LSU, night before my last Calc final(freshman) my best friend from hs came into town, we were heading to P'Cola right after my test, we got so fricked up the night before I slept in, as the alarm went off he was coming back from the shower, I asked him to take the test for me because I couldn't make it in time, he aced it for me

Probably Intermediate II, if you were an accounting major. If not, probably Intermediate I.

Statics with some Arabic dude that replaced the teacher we were supposed to have that had to stop teaching because of a bad moped accident...

Strengths with Moorthy. frick that POS.

Engineering Physics 3 with Robert Beaird. Dude looked and acted like the Angry Video Game Nerd. Strictest grader on the planet. Miss a unit in one line of work? -10. Ended up scoring a 70 on the final to pass the class with a 70, so there's that

Corporate Finance in my MBA was a cumulative exam that was clearly the hardest test I ever prepared for or took.

There’s something with engineers and units, I hate using engineering standards for their lack of...when it comes to equations.

Yeah, we were supposed to have Kerry Reed. Instead, they split the two sections into four and had the foreign TAs teach them in her stead. It was truly awful. I don't think I understand a word that guy said all semester.

Naval Nuclear Power School and Naval Nuclear Power Prototype School. Both had an 8 hour written exam, all long answer and problem solving. After the final in prototype school you had to face an oral board that took most of a day. It was grueling.

I think Kerry Reed got in a car accident and had to take a sabbatical the year after I had her for Statics. Shame, because she was an excellent professor.

I took a highway construction class and it only had 2 test. The midterm and the final. Each were 50 questions. Every question was a point on your grade. That shite sucked.

USMLE Step 1. If we’re not counting board exams, I’ll say Medical Physiology renal exam, when I was getting my Masters degree.

Bombed the shite out of the Physics 1 final.. Professor never spent a minute on the conceptual side of Physics.. Final was literally all conceptual. Got a 40. Still finished with a B though.

A soil and water engineering class. Final was 27 pages long and we had to use calculations on our computer software to come up with answers in paragraph form, but in the conceptual sense. All grading was relative to the time it was graded, the mood of the grader, and the writing skills of the student.

It was absolute nonsense, but at least we got our money's worth of learning. Damn Asian professors and their calculators for brains.
