Learning issues.

So, INPG enjoys scheduling exams after Christmas break, which is an absolutely horrible decision, as I did not study during break.

I really don't like how school is organized here. Class is once a week, for somewhere between 2-4 hours. There's no homework assigned. No books. Just lecture notes and the examples given in class. No practice exams. You do get all the material from class on the exams, but I need more than what's given in class. I need supplemental material to read. I need example problems. I just can't go over the same problem that we did in class and expect to learn the material. I need to crank out problems. This is how I learn. I learn by doing. Doing problems until I know the subject and not by just going over my notes.

So, I haven't been doing so well on the exams. This needs to be changed. I need to find a way to succeed to get the credits.
