Until you're the only one walking out with an A.
It wasn't enjoyable. It was necessary.
Blowing out the curve as an undergrad was a lot more satisfying.

Essays were my chance to shine, but even more so research papers."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

I remember in my case, first day of college.... "so, THIS is the library.... ", and a significant learning curve on just how to utilize it.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

She actually used the local Junior College library as her prep room. So, when she started college, it was 'business as usual' to turn out quality research papers - no sweat!
