Economics Horror

So, I just finished an economics exam. It was an online, open-notes type of thing. "Don't worry," says my professor, "you have 90 minutes. You should be done far before that."

La-dee-dah-dee-dah ...

I get to the end of the exam (30 minutes to spare) and go back to check over my answers one last time.

!!!!!!Klong!!!!!!!!!!

I realize: OymyGawd. I transposed the wrong "unit labor of productivity" number, rendering all the subsequent calculations (and test answers) wrong, wrong, useless, wrong.

So ahhhhhhhhhhh! I had to go back and re-do the whole test, praying that I'm not so frazzled that I jumble other numbers along the way ....

(All the while, someone has brought a screaming baby into the study room. And the guy next to me is gently moaning in Islamic-call-to-prayer fashion.)

I get it in with 3 minutes to go. Because it's online, I can see my grade right away:

41.25/50. What is that? B? Low B. But a B. Not bad for economics with a meltdown at the end.

Sigh. Must continue to bust hiney to make it in this class.
