My comprehensive exam begins at 9am tomorrow (Friday). This exam is all essay and closed book. I'm a little nervous, but the point of the exam is to show what I've learned in the program and that I can professional and intelligently relay the knowledge I have gained. It shouldn't be difficult, but it may be a little tricky, depending on the questions. I've always been good at writing essays, but it's not one of my favorite types of exam styles. At least with essays, the qualitative nature allows for more subjectivity in assessment (as opposed to the quantitative yes/no, right/wrong nature of multiple or true/false questions). So that gives me a little relief! I will still need to make sure I answer all parts of the questions and do my best to coherently and concisely convey my thoughts.
Hopefully, by 2pm eastern time, I will be a lot less stressed. I started my MSIS back in August 2012, so this is a long-time coming. My graduation is May 8 and I will find out the pass/fail result of my exam by April 17.
Here goes nothing!
