I feel like I'm preparing for a walk down the Green Mile or something. I'm heading to this final with the full knowledge that I will not get everything right. I have absorbed all I possibly can for this exam, and there's still stuff that I know I'll need to know but can't force my brain to store. I've memorized so many derivations, equations, and scale analyses of equations that there's no way I can remember any more without losing what I already have in my head. I hate, hate, HATE that this final is comprehensive, because there's just too much information to know. It's probably attributed to my study methods more than anything. Instead of getting down and dirty and LEARNING everything, I take quick snapshots of it all in my head right before the exam and then coast through it with my short term memory in all of its photographic remembering wonder. It's a terrible way to go through school, because when you're done and have the diploma you have the grades to show that you know everything when in fact you've already forgotten most of it. I always remember the conceptual stuff, but if you ask me to regurgitate an equation I learned three years ago I'll look at you like you're from another planet. It's just how my brain works. I remember the theory but not the math. I can't just rewire my brain to learn things differently, even though I wish I could at times.
