article image placeholderUploaded by @FionaElizabeth
Hello, Swell, So I am so happy because I just finished my last final and all of my finalsweek were papers I did not have any exams I had to go in and take, they were all papers and they were each like three pages, five pages, One of them was six pages long But I just wanted to come on here and ask which do you prefer for finals? Do you prefer taking I exam? Or do you prefer doing papers

A combo of both!

Hi, Fiona. I was actually just thinking about this today because I am currently in the middle of finals or about to start finals and I have all exams next week. So I have four different exams next week and it's going to be a lot and I'm very stressed. And honestly, I honestly wish I had a couple of papers to write because it would at least balance it out

So personally I think I like taking exams just because I like like the format of like multiplechoice or short answer and whatnot. But honestly, I do not mind like written exams or like essays for your finals and whatnot because it's just like you usually have more time to get it done and you can craft your argument or whatever it may be with more time

Okay. Me and my roommate were just talking about this because last semester, like my first semester of my sophomore year, I had a bunch of essays that I had to do for finalsweek, and I was just always writing and it was most draining, so thing. But she had all exams and stuff. And then this semester I had all exams for my finals and she had a bunch of essays and we were talking about just what we preferred and stuff

So it is a very nice question and if you ask my opinion then I will obviously suggest that exams are better because exams may make us actually prepare for the subjects and so I prefer for exams

Hi. So having papers for finals would be so great. It's not so stressful as of exams, as exams are going to give so much of stress. Currently I am in the middle of a exams which is going to end next week and it's so hectic that I can't even explain in words, I would say you are lucky to have papers for final terms and not the exams. Thank you very much. I

Because when I have to take my final exams, the most we have is 3 hours. So is it the same for a paper or is it spread out over time and then you're working on it and then you submit it at the end and it counts as a final paper because under a time crunch, I personally would rather take a final exam. I feel like that speaks to me better

Midterms and finals are stupid

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, girl. I got like four other different classes and all of these professors are expecting me to take how much time to study on top of all these other classes? I don't get it. I've had a variety. I've had a semester of all tests, a semester of all papers, a semester of both, and either or. It doesn't matter, it just sucks. Like midterms and finals week

And if I'm really interested in it, if I'm really interested in it, I feel like I would prefer a test, because if I'm interested, I'm going to know what's on it. And I feel like I'm not interested. I prefer a paper
