WTF: It's clear to me now that this university gives preference to Engineers when making the exam schedule. My roommates have at least two days between their exams, yet I have 3 in two days. Way to be UW. Way to be.

  2. 2B Engineering Electrical student here, last term, we had 3 finals in 2 days, and 5 finals in 5 days. It was nice being finished early though.

  3. It's because if your class size is greater than 90 students the department gets to pick when to schedule the exam, and since almost all engineering classes have a class size >90 and all their courses are in their own department, they get a nice spread out schedule.
    But as pointed above, the downside is that engineers usually don't finish right till the end.

  4. 2B Chem Eng here - our exam schedule is weird this term - 3 exams in 3 days last week, then two today, but the last exam isn't until next Monday. So the exams came in spurts of high intensity, but we're also not done until the very end.

  6. I'm an upper-year in Arts and I have a badass exam schedule this semester. Never had such a good exam schedule for mid-terms or finals.
