RANT! RANT! RANT!
Thursday, September 15 we took our Exam #2 for Psychology. I just want to put it out there that professor said, "students in the previous semester say that this the hardest test they have ever taken in my class." After announcing that statement to the whole class, everybody was afraid to take this killer exam! As promised, my professor had an envelope of numbers from 2-7. These numbers correlate the exam numbers. He kindly asked, one of his TA's to pull a number out of the envelope. The number that the TA pulls out will be the open book and notes exam. Everybody was praying it will be Exam 2. DRUMB ROLL PLEASE................... TA pulls the number #2 out of the envelope. A sense of relieve was lifted off my shoulders because studying for this exam was major killer!
We are required to do this test in 50 minutes. Mind you not, this test was about 54 questions long, all questions were also multiple choice. Since this exam was open book and notes, it takes about 2-3 minutes to find the correct answers to the question. (well, it took me about 5 minutes or so). I reached questions 25-30 of the exam, and my professor says, "OKAY YOU HAVE 10 MORE MINUTES!!!!" I started freaking out because I was far behind from finishing on time. About 8 minutes into the last announcement, I reached question 30... And my professor, "okay you have 2 MORE MINUTES" I personally was not in rush to finish the exam BECAUSE I thought I was not the only one who will NOT finish. Apparently, 2 minutes was up and he told us to pass our exam's to the right. I DID NOT FINISH AT ALL! Since I was sitting in the front of the class, I asked my professor if I could finish my exam after class.. He says: "No, that means I will have to make everyone who did not finish, finish their exams. I can't just do that for one person. Well on the bright, you can drop 2 low exam grades." I personally was so upset because I wanted to ace that exam, just the fact that he did not want me to finish the exam, tells me that he does not want me to pass the class. I believe that all professors should give second chances to their students who are willing to better their grade... RANT!
