not really stressed about this, just commenting on stupid mistakes.

i just wrote an online quiz, i have to write 11 of them and the prof takes the top 9 and those are worth 10% of your final mark combined. so i got 60% on this one, i don't know what i did wrong on one of the questions, another i forgot to square one term, and another question i just plain didn't know the answer. no sweat, i'll just ace the rest. i just kind of got frustrated that i always make some stupid mistake like making something positive instead of negative, or forgetting to square something, stupid things like that.

Presuming you are dealing with mathematics, study a bit more, or slow down while you formulate.

I used to do that all the time. Just mess up on the small stuff. That's a sign of rushing. SLOW DOWN. Learn from my mistakes.

yea, math sucks, but i like it more now and understand it better now that im not in a class, kind wierd i think, i used to rush through my tests and failed most of them...

I do it all the time on tests. I teach my class half the time then fuck up the simplest stuff on the test and it screws up a bunch of other stuff. Luckily my professor is cool and knows I know the stuff so I still do fine in the class.

Online quiz?
Do you take it in your own time from your home?

If so, why do you rush? I've taken online quizzes in the last few months for courses I've been doing, have yet to get less than 100% - be smart and take advantage of it

They can be timed. I know several of my teachers are fans of using online quizzes, but they time them, which makes it difficult to spend too much time on any certain question.

yeah these quizes are times ones once a week. you've got a certain deadline that you have to complete each one by and you've got an hour to do them. the thing about this one is that i wrote down the equation right and i stuck all the numbers in it correctly, but i forgot to square it when i used my calculator.

what program or website? I know for the math class i was taking last semester we used Mathxl.com the quizes are timed but you can go on, log in and print all the questions out then log out and when you came back they were all the same questions. Thus giving you however long you needed to work on them.
