There's also another final based on you knowledge of the English language in general, but that one isn't worth nearly as much, and it's much easier.
For math you get a whole page of notes of whatever you want for the 6 chapters covered in the semester that you can use during the final (you just can't have worked out examples). That tends to be easy, as all you really need to write down are equations.
Science is about the same. Except even easier.
So as you can see, the English one is an absolutely bitch if you're lazy and save all you're studying for the end of the semester. Which would be all right if my English grade wasn't border C+/B- range.

why do they make English a pain in the butt in high school? Always made me mad about that. I was in your grade range also in English because of the bull**** they would pull.
They would give you a topic like abortion, tell you that you are going to argue the con side and write an essay right there on the spot!
I'm like wtf how am I supposed to know enough about abortion to argue any ****ing side? why would you give kids research type essay topics and want them to write an essay with no knowledge of the topic?
bravo now read what i said
