How could I have not studied enough for this test?<\/p>\n<p>I have this need to succeed in this class, because I need to prove that I am better than the undergrads that are in the class.  I believe that i am the only graduate student&#8230;and yet I still perform at the level of an undergraduate?  That is wholly unacceptable.<\/p>\n<p>I could list a number of reasons why I wasn\\&#8217;t as prepared as I should have been.  But they don\\&#8217;t really account for the fact that I just didn\\&#8217;t spend that much time on this.  Sure, I could say that the student competition was taking a lot of my time or that my work with Jason was sucking a lot.  Yet, that\\&#8217;s not really the case.  It\\&#8217;s more about the fact that I just&#8230;didn\\&#8217;t have the dedication to study.  I thought it would be a breeze, but it\\&#8217;s not always like that, is it?<\/p>\n<p>It\\&#8217;s one of my favorite classes, yet I wasn\\&#8217;t sure how we would be tested.  and I just read through the book, not sure if I studied enough, or studied too little.  Next time right?  If I really enjoyed this class, then I should spend more time in it, correct?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My latest painful experience is taking a test that I should have studied for.
