I'm not writing what I really want to right now, so just give me a little more time to unwind and be a little less paranoid and then some big articles will be released soon that are going to shake up the domaining world a little bit. Yes, the domaining world. It just depends on how far I go. Thanks.

This is due to heavy development/testing/and family visiting and me taking them out. I saw the revenue of two sites drop by 50% in the last week. They are REALLY good money makers so that REALLY pissed me off. Damnit... quoting myself earlier today: "It feels good being away from the computer for two days." Back to work, I guess. LOL.

We basically learn for the whole semester and then get tested on it, that shows our ability to learn, how much we have comprehended, and what we are having trouble with. I am still doing my general studies at UC Berkeley, so I do not know how the finals are after I finish my general studies and focus on my major. The exam cannot really test all that you have learned in the past semester, but certain parts of the material. The exams usually cover the most useful or broadly covered sections of the subject. In the end of the day, the only test you since they have to. Well, the exams that we have “Finals” are a major portion of our grade, if not our entire grade.

You can't just assess and grade a student depending on how he performed in those few hours. Testing the whole semester, in just a few hours... that's just not fair..!! Anybody might flunk it, probably cze they are disturbed for some reason while sitting the exam. I hate exams... :lol: I don’t agree with the fact that exams test all that you’ve learned in the past semester.

Plus based on your exams, you get your grade. I personally hate exams since I have to study for them, but otherwise I think they are OK.

I was so busy studying that I felt like I didn't have enough time to write anything with even a speck of quality. That was especially hard for me because I update every single day, and I hate doing cop-out posts. Oh well, that's over and now I have free time again.
