Hey Jon I've been patiently waiting for you to finish this class. I'm assuming that since you've completed calc including a 5 HOUR final (EEEEEEKKKKK), without going postal on anyone, your ready and brilliant enough to build me a TRANSPORTER like the one on Star Trek("if I could just take it apart, I'm quite certain I can duplicate it, Captain").
Let me know if this is something you'd consider. Just think how your resume would look.

I think I could handle that ... i have a duel major, Computer Science and Physics. This is some hard shit to do at the same time ... plus I work 40-50 hours a week at the one of the largest credit card companies in the world doing web app development and custom software applications. (Let my post count reflect the amount of work I accomplish  )

once upon a time , i felt like you do and and also many of those whom are mirroring those same sentiments you espouse. then came the professional exams, in my case, the cpa exam. i listen to those who tell me how easy i now have it , since i am now a cpa and do not again have to study and "take THE test". you do not know how good you have it! now , every time i answer the phone , meet or talk to a client or irs agent, attorney, actuary,potential client, colleague, staff person or my boss, each question they ask is a "final" exam, and if i give an answer, its got to be right-few to no partial credits in the real world. don't think the rest of us have to study-constantly?(tax law changes year to year,you have to know what question the client wants to ask because he doesn't, and give the right answer). that crap really cuts into practise time.
next time you see your doctor what's your response if you have chest pain and he tells you he got a c in cardiology class and has not studied since med school.
enjoy school while you can.these tests are nothing compared to what you may find out here.
