tampalizard Wrote:I haven't written for awhile but I have been reading fairly often. I am done with my tests now...one way or the other. I took Intro to Business and Principles of Finance last Thursday. If I passed both all I need to do is finish the classes I am in and I will have my degree. If I failed the Finance I will be taking another self-paced class through BYU. I know I will be able to go through it quickly as I studied a good bit for the exam. I am not sure I passed it though because there were at least 8 of the same type of calculation question and I did not know how to do them. This has been a depressing couple of months for me. I made it through nearly 100 credits via testing without failing a single test. Of course..I saved the worst ones for last. Failing those two tests (Algebra CLEP and Money and Banking DSST) and now, possibly, a third is taking the spring out of my step thats for sure! To top that off I am having a REALLY hard time with my algebra class and I have 3 proctored exams I have to pass. It is looking more and more like that stupid subject is going to delay my degree. I get really angry with myself when I simply CANNOT understand something. It makes me feel really ignorant. I want to repeat, again, that it would probably not be my choice again to save all the most personally challenging tests for last. I would not advise it for anyone else. Hope everyone is doing well!

hey T-Lizard-
you've come this far, just a few more steps. hang in there. i would love to be in your shoes! sounds like we all have our dilemmas going on right now. i understand about the frustration of not understanding a concept and getting angry but you are far from ignorant. i plan on taking your advice about not saving the worst for last. just like dinner when i was a kid and saved those peas, i knew i should have just downed them with the potatoes.hilarious
