Comprehensive Exams

Tomorrow morning I will be emailed three essay prompts for my comprehensive exams and I will have till 5pm on the 25th to write three 8-12 page papers on those prompts. I’ve gotten great grades in all my classes so far in my masters. But those grades won’t matter at all if I don’t pass what we all lovingly refer to as “comps.”

Writing papers that long isn’t that big of a problem for me. I have ten days to do it. And I don’t really have much else going on during those ten days – I’ve pretty much cleared my schedule for these. But I’m still nervous. This is the last big step for my masters.

So if everyone could think calming and intelligent thoughts for me for the next ten days, that would be greatly appreciated.

I’ll report back every so often to let everyone know how they are going.
