I think the most I've had was four finals in one semester. And it was brutal, where some of those finals would either make or break my grade. Well, sure glad those days are over.

I don't get why exams and tests are given so much emphasis in school when it's really your ability to put knowledge and know-how into practice and experience, not memorize it so you can just spit it out on a piece of paper and then proceed to forget everything five minutes later.
