I was burned this week from 3 exams that were all much easier than they could've been. Why? Asides from the class that I was really behind in, I thought I understood concepts I didn't really have a good grasp of. So the lesson is that you don't know it until you can prove it. Eh.. whatever... the real lesson is study in advance and don't fall asleep in class. There's always the finals, right?
Update concerning procrastination: it's not only possible to underestimate the time it takes to accomplish tasks, it's almost certain to happen. Compound these miscalculations with interruptions and set-backs and you're surely screwed.
Boring post again... but this is for my own good anyway.
