I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

It's a way to maximize your opportunity for a 4.0.  As you get closer to the end of the program, the stress to maintain a 4.0 becomes tremendous.

Yes, yes it does.  Of course, it's really the fact that it's a couple of courses that I have to memorize terminology and not ideas that's giving me so many problems.

You have my sympathy.  I am not a memorizer either.

One of my friends took a year of organic chemistry that required rote memorization of all those chemical diagrams.  I could ask her a question and receive a blank stare in return, then a couple of minutes later she'd ask, "Did you say something?"  Her husband was going crazy with worry every time she had to drive somewhere.

May you live in interesting times.

That was me before I started all this learning stuff.  I'm surprised I don't just shut down completely now

Don't shut down until after the diploma is awarded.
