Exit Exams

In order to graduate, I have to take 2 "Exit Exams".  One is the General Education test, and the other is a Major Field Test (MFT) - a test for each major. These tests get submitted to some government or private or something to determine how much grant money the University gets and my college gets.  

Notice above I said "take".  The score you make does not affect your GPA or ability to graduate.  I could get a 0 (yes, ZERO) on both and they would still let me graduate!  (Yes, I thought about it)

So let me get this straight: the University gets money based on my score, but I have absolutely ZERO motivation to score well?!?!  Yeah ok.  

I go into this test thinking I'm going to get some reading questions, some basic math, english, history, etc. You know, that stuff I slaved for a couple years on pointless high school repeat classes to learn?!  What was the test?  35 logic questions.  

Example (Source here):
a. If there are no dancers that aren’t slim and no singers that aren’t dancers, then which statements are always true?

1. There is not one slim person that isn't a dancer
2. All singers are slim
3. Anybody slim is also a singer
4. None of the above

I wish I was kidding.  I'm just going to let the irony sink in for a second.

A logic test that is classified as a General Education test that earns the University money based on scores, but offers ZERO motivation to do well.



YOU MEAN TO TELL ME ALL THAT GEN ED WAS FOR NOTHING?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Mrrrrrrr

Hopefully the MFT I take for my major will be more interesting.  

Until next time,

Stuff...and...Things

Since I didn't blog for the majority of the Spring Semester, I'll give you a rundown:

• Calc 3: Failed.  3D math taught by professor who couldn't speak English, read from the book and wouldn't answer questions.  yay
• All other classes: passed.  

That's about it.

Until next time,

:)
