I HATED undergrad stat. Back then we did a lot of it by hand and that doubly sucked. Nowadays its all in the software and as long as you know what you should be doing its pretty easy going and is even fun on occasion.
God luck on the test - soon it will only be a bad memory.

17. ProCrastination Tip for Success #78: One word for you -- Tupperware... |
|
It's time to clean that Tupperware shelf in your kitchen. You know the one. The lids are all over the place. The containers are not even stacked by size or shape or depth.
It's time to roll up your sleeves and get the job done. You might even have to move on to 78B and 78C:
Remove all the tupperware containers from the fridge and check contents. If moldy, empty and drop into boiling water or otherwise disinfect.
This could lead you to the really big Tip for Sucess: Full Refrigerator Clean Up Job
You'll need to run down to the bookstore and buy the ProCrastination Manual for that one.
Whew! I need a drink now. Hmmm.... I guess I should be cleaning that Liquor Cabinet.....
Yes... I am the ProCrastinator. Turning Pro has really changed my life. Well, at least it seems to have put off changing my life. For now.
