I'm not rid of exams just yet

I have been in the Computational Math group at the workplace since over a year ago. This means intensive math training in Calculus, Linear Algebra, Python, etc. for us in the group.

I like that I got to learn (for the math stuffs I didn't learn when I was in school) and re-learn (for those that I have forgotten) the amazing mathematical concepts that advanced the technology of the world. I like that this time around I can relate most of the concepts to the problems in the real world because the training is programmed that way (Singular Value Decomposition to Regression, for example). I like that I have learned soooo much new things that I probably wouldn't have learned anywhere else. I like that my brain is constantly exercising. I like that I think I now have a better sense of how a lot things work.

I don't like though that I still get to take exams! And a comprehensive one in linear algebra is coming this week, of which I am so not prepared yet. I have so many things that need to get done at work, studying is last of my priorities. But I have to...I know I won't get fired for failing...however, I'm not the type to go down without a good fight!
