Final?...We say NO!!

In Analog Electronics we have been slowly progressing until the last few weeks when our teacher rushed through chapter upon chapter until we finished--just in time for the semester's end. He is infamous for this; working at a snail's pace and than demanding multiple assignments at the end of the semester. But who doesn't have a teacher like this.

Well, we get to the final after a full night of studying and some last minute cramming in the morning before. Teach comes to class almost 15 min late; we all knew he was just making up the test, cutting and pasting furiously before we said enough with waiting. The nerve of him!

Right after he passed out the scantron sheets he asked, "Do you have any last minute questions." This is where Stetz stepped in and said, "Can we not take the final." Of course it was a joke, but we were serious in a way. After deliberation with himself and our other offerings instead of the final, we had convinced him to not take the final! He gave us the opportunity to take the final to boost our grade or keep what we had. No one stayed, haha!

So it came down to a simple question with an even more simple. Ironically enough, that is what Eistein was striving for: "Make everything as simple as possible...." What could be more simple than not taking a test!

To top things off, we never had a test at all!! Life is great :)
