[George/Cannon] Math Struggle

As I think most of you know we (meaning Kate, Grace and I) are taking a math course through BYU.  And while we are in America we are all going to be taking our finals.  In this post I'm going to talk about the preparation for our finals.

Notes:  For the exam we are each allowed one page of handwritten notes.  This takes a lot of time.  What I did is I did the practice test several times, and each time I found a question I didn't know how to do I figured it out and wrote it down in my notes.  (For example I wrote down how to turn a repeating decimal into a fraction in my notes).

Calculator:  This semester I took algebra I.  That means that I needed a graphing calculator.  So today we went to Walmart and bought two $125 graphing calculators (one is for my sister who is taking algebra II).  I have no idea what half of the buttons do.

LOOK AT ALL OF THE BUTTONS!!!

Doing the practice test over and over:  Thankfully BYU gives you a practice test so you can know what to expect in the real test.  And it doesn't count towards you grade so you can do it over and over again.  This is all I have been doing in math for the last couple days.  I am soooooooo sick of it.

In conclusion I think that we are all very sick of math and can't wait to be done.  Our exam is on Friday and I think we are all very nervous but exited to be done with math.  Wish me (and my sisters I guess) luck!!
