Opinion

Everyone who voted has a reason for voting the way they did. Just because they did not describe it vividly in a 'plea' does not mean that they have less valid reasons. To call everyone who doesn't do things the way you like it 'a douche bag that doesn't care about his grades' is rather immature. --Hhuang 21:10, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

There would a two week break between the time we finish covering the exam material and the actual exam if the exam is after spring break. This could hurt students who are keeping up-to-date with the material since they would have to go back and do additional studying to stay on top of everything. It would help students who want to cram before the exam since they would have more time to do that. I figure the class is probably split evenly into these two groups. Personally, I have an academic study abroad in France during spring break. I am not partying in Florida or laying around during spring break. I will have little or possibly no free time during which I can study (we do not return to Purdue until late Sunday night). It is also likely I will be jetlagged for the week after spring break. This is why a pre-spring break exam works better for me. --Rodrigaa 19:37, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

You know what? The test should be after the spring break. Do you guys really have the time to prepare mid-term 2 before spring break? The spring break is 1 week which is enough time to study. If you don't want to mess up your precious grade, think one more time. --Kim415
