<p>That's an interesting question, Olsi. It really depends on the person. I'm assuming you are talking of CC...?!!? I personally have not spent much time this semester studying..too busy on this site :) Then again, I saved my easy classes for the last semester. In any case, if a big test is coming up, I like to spend about a week studying for it...same with papers, I spend about a week writing them. That's just me though, I can't speak for the rest of the high gpaers.</p>
<p>***Edit--Once I transfer though, I will certainly be spending much more time studying since I know the school+homework load will be much more intense.</p>
<p>I do everything right before its due. For History, I prefer to go to bed at 6pm the previous day, wake up at 2am, and study until I leave for class; for Calculus, I study for about two hours before class; for Managerial Accounting, and hour is good enough; and for Physics, I try to study but it does not do any good because that class is dumb and everything she says is going to be on the test isn't. Stupid whore.</p>
<p>i think it depends on your major. im a political science major/arabic major and i spend 1-2 hours a day doing work (at the most) to maintain my 4.0, but my roommate is a microbiology major, and he spends 5-6 hours doing work each day to maintain a 3.85</p>
<p>hejjjj, dissmis the question about CC, i just managed to realize that CC stands for community college, but i am talking about a four year college, but yet not a "top school"</p>
<p>wowww.... i just read this whole thread start to finish (I'm at probably the most boring internship known to mankind) and all I have to say is nspeds, i totally enjoy you now. i'd love to see you and martini debate in real life! martini, you didn't perchance apply to georgetown, did you? that might make that actually possible.... haha
original topic-- i have a 3.73, and am looknig at a 3.9 right now for this semester. it is only University of Vermont, but I'm in the hardest poli sci class in my school, a senior seminar, and my history class is intermediate level and i'm a freshman so... i guess that's my excuse (?)
or i could just blame this site, which honestly is probably more accurate... that and the cache of milan kundera books my mother sent me in the mail about a couple weeks ago.</p>
<p>I just read some reports regarding my "baptism," so I think the following is necessitated:
- I chose HBU because I was offered a full scholarship there.
- I am a North Indian, agnostic, Libertarian... not as hardcore fundamentalist of some of you would like to think.
- HBU was not nearly as "hardcore Christian" as some of the schools which were referenced. There was no required 'chapel course," which is typical at schools like Baylor, BJU, and PCC. To be sure, comparing HBU to such schools is ludicrous. In fact, the preponderance of my professors there were alums from Rice who themselves questioned the existence of God; in a contemporary philosophy course, we read the works of Nietzsche (as a precursor to PoMo), and many philosophical works containing curse words. Heck, schools like Duke and Yale took professors from our school. </p>
<p>To criticize the place from where I transferred, or aspects my personality is presumptuous: you presuppose that you are sufficiently educated about who I am and what I do. Such presuppositions are false prima facie.</p>

When you use all this unnecessary words, it only proves how insecure you are.

<p>Not really. I mentioned earlier that I am a logophile; the fact that you cannot stop complaining about such words is demonstrative of how insecure you are.</p>
<p>Also, burden of proof does not lie on the person whom is attacked.</p>
<p>(These factors seem so painfully obvious. That one should argue otherwise only attests to his/her intellectual inferiority.)</p>

prima facie
"at first glance," as in:
Prima facie, it seems that George will inherit control of most of father's estate; but the will is complicated, and our lawyers are looking into it even as we speak. Perhaps they'll discover some clause that blocks George's inheritance.

<p>I am not sure what you are trying to prove. If it is simply that you are an idiot, making idiotic posts so that others will persistently correct you, then you are proving that very well.</p>
<p>I can tell what you are really trying to do, but you are just exposing your own ignorance in the process, and further contradicting your prior claim that you would never communicate with me again.</p>
<p>Please, keep doing it. This process should typify your idiocy.</p>
