Org. Theory exam.

3 questions.

I have answered 1/4 of one question and have already written 2 pages.

I may be screwed. Hope he doesn't mind question 1 being 7 pages and questions 2 and 3 being like a page and a half each.

^ I support this idea. Set your font size to 8 and supply a magnifying glass when you submit your paper.

speaking of that 11x17 shit, im assuming thats to annoy someone.

you wanna annoy someone... use that old school legal document size paper (i guess 11x17), but use the TYPING PAPER (tissue paper thin) stuff.

god that would annoy me to no end. ive been reading shit from the beginnings of the transistor patent info days and tons of it is on that old ass paper, and i HATE HATE HATE it

3/4 of question 1 completed, a little over 5 pages used.

I think I'm going to have to cut some of it back.

I hate erasing stuff I have already done. I'm lazy, so it's a wonder I ever got it done in the first place, then I learn that I did too much and it makes me sad.

This guy's very strict about his 12 point font and 1 inch margins. I would rather go over the 10 page limit if it came down to that.

I did laugh at that, but it's not happening.

I think everyone's gonna be using their 10 pages on this test.

I'm contemplating using all those old high school paper writing tricks that everyone used, except in reverse.

Setting font to 11.5
setting line spacing to 1.9
etc.

Try to cut out the bs and be more concise with your answers. He probably gave the 10pg limit because he knows how much people can bullshit on theory

Teachers usually don't pick up on it when you only break the rules a little bit.

Speaking from experience here. Anal retentive teachers totally missed my use of 2.1 spacing and 1.6 inch margins with 12.5 size fonts...

That was back before I spammed the shit out of my assignments. Now I gotta do 1" margins, single spaced, with size 10-12 fonts.

Use the replace feature and replace all 12 font periods with 10 font periods.
