With finals upcoming next week this is without question a busy time for all of us! We constantly have to balance the demands put on us both academically and athletically as basketball season is also in full swing. As far as finals at Coe go they begin Dec 10th and end on Wednesday December 15th. Some finals are comprehensive as they cover all the material covered during the semester but most professors elect to just have finals be like any other normal exam. One really nice thing about Coe is that they institute a reading day one day before finals. This semester the reading day is December 9th and classes are cancelled for that day so that students and faculty can prepare for final exams. Each class has a specific time to take their final, as it is usually not at the same time as your normally designated class time. Some teachers choose to alter their final time in order to allow students to take their final early so as to not have to worry about it later on in the week. For example, in my economics class we are scheduled to take the final on December 15th, which is the last day of finals. Instead of taking it on this day my professor kindly moved it to Monday December 7th so that our class wouldn’t have that final hanging over our heads. We can now take the final and get it over with before finals even technically begin. During finals we are also given three days off of practice so that we have plenty of time to prepare for our exams. As the semester draws to a close, all of us are excited about finishing strong academically and continuing to improve on the hardwood!
