Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    The point is that she's a TOTAL nerd/freak. Get over it CK, it's an A.

    I'm happy with a 15/20 on a difficult exam...I'm rather sad when I got 17/20 in English..I usually get 19/20..yeye, I'm good at english..well..you might not notice it
    Yes well, I can thank my mom for having such high standards for myself. When I was in middle school and high school and I used to bring home and A- her response would be, 'Well, why isn't it an A?'

    Gotta love her!!

      I'm last minute as well.... well not last minute, maybe the last two days, but it works for me. I don't really study during the semester but when I have a test I spend two or three days in a row studying for it and ace the test, so no complains! My finals are next week, and I got two on the same day

        Method of studying...I usually don't, and if I do, I study in the last hour or two before the test.

          When I start studying, the first step shluld be to turn off my computer. Second, not to turn it back on. LOL.

            My mom too! Maybe they were trained at similar parenting schools.

            Even if it was an A, she'd say "if you'd answered (#) more questions right it would have been 100%. ARGH!!!

                I just took my first final and I have been studying for it since sunday. I dont usually study that long for a final but this final has my grade depending on it so I really had to concentrate on it. My method of study is basically memorization with review. If I organize my notes a certain way and go through them a few times then the information sticks in my head. I have a photographic memory so if I look and read at something long enough than I remember it pretty well on the exam, I am even able to visualize on what page and paragraph (not the page number, just location) the information is on in the book.

                  I don't have any finals. Naneee naneee boo booo!
                  I have to the GRE in a few days though. That's pretty major. I'd rather take a final.
                  I have my preliminary orals for my thesis in early January as well. I'm a little anxious about that. I don't know that I'll have a whole lot of time to prepare when I have a bunch of applications due between now and then. Oy! Then, my comprehensive exam is scheduled for the first week of Feb. That'll be a 4 hr exam in an extremely broad area and I do not have any idea what the questions will be. Fun, fun...

                    That's review and studying all bundled into one. Works great!
