Pains me to see the boy so hard at work on his first major project after so long. All the blood, sweat and tears staying up overnight just to rush the report out (which isn't even his part) and then getting his presentation in order. Who would have thought that he would come across bigger slackers in his first year than me in my 2 years in school! And to think his school was one that is famous for chionging and hard core mugging!
Anyways, all comes back to the point! 8 people in a group is totally not conducive for effective project work at all. Or maybe the university is trying to do as my mother says, show their students that 4-5 people is really the optimal and that with 8, people will really slack. Thats before they go out into the working world, and just to prove a point. Hmmm... food for thought eh!
Anyways, just realized how much this second (unwanted and unnecessary) presentation is gonna hurt my group! 7 questions, with a million and one parts to each one! Oh god, help me please! Well, I attempted to do some of them. But mostly, I'm failing. Derivatives really ain't my cup of tea. Shall hope and pray that we get it done tmr during the meeting! :D
