Let it be known to any that think grad-school is easy, it’s not.
I just took a take-home test. Sounds easy right? You get to do it at home, super simple!
Oh how wrong you are.
The end result of my marathon is this.
It took 14 hours total to finish this test. Not 14 hours as in “took me a day with a bunch of fiddling”, I mean it took me
14 hours worth of work to do, I’ve written for a grand total of 14hours. My final paper was 15 pages long, nearly 5000 words. I cited over 20 articles, one book, and two news posts. Most answers to these questions were 2 or 3 pages long, containing numerous citations. Said questions were multipart monsters covering large swaths of cognitive psychology. In addition to citing 20 articles, I’ve had to read through 36 articles over the course of the class to even prepare for this abomination. I was given only a few days to do this.
And this was for
one class. I have 3, and I teach a class, and I help run a lab. Ya’ll bitches don’t even know.
Me right now
