Midterms in October

More midterms again in November

Then finals in December

So it works out that your always studying for some big exam.

In my experience, midterms in November are rare, but having at least one big test every month is totally normal. What is bothering you?

So you're saying you have two big midterms and then a final. Is that normal. Not that's not normal at all. I don't know what you're professors are thinking. I don't think I ever had a class like that.

I always had at least _three_.

But seriously, I had classes that ran the gamut, from 1 to I think 4. I even had at least one class where we sat for the final semester exam on the last day of classes and sat for a cumulative final a few days later.

Darn, I always knew there was something wrong with my college...
Now I know what it was! Too many darn exams.....<grin>

Never was a bother to me, but then I loved the subjects (Mechanical Engineering with minors in Electronics and Aerodynamics) and usually did OK.

If you are not keen on your subject, that could be a problem for the whole education plan. Better fix that first. If you are keen on it, it's a chance for you to shine!;)

Hope it all pans out well for you.
