I liked my last final. It was the kind of final that I like; the kind of final that I missed from not taking anymore analytical math. It lack the long and repetitive isolate x and then substitute it into equation (1) to solve for y crap. If you know what is going on, the process is simple, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, and you are done.
Oh how I wish the 425 final was like that. That final felt ridiculously long, though it really wasn't overly long; I had about twenty minutes left in the end. However the whole exam has a lot of questions that were essentially boring. In REAL math exams, like the one I took today, you actually go, "Oh how neat!" If you know exactly what is going on and did not make any mistakes, that exam could have been finished in under an hour. Otherwise, you would just be BSing.
Maybe I'm destined to return to academia in the future... we'll see.
Bye SFU--assuming I did not fail Stat450 or Acma490!
