    is it for a paper? Just bullshit your way through it. I'm actually doing that for an essay final right now.

    Are you sure you have to do it? What class is it for?

    a greater part of this readings are for non crim classes insatiable, this bio class is going to kill me, my brain stopped absorbing information 20 minutes ago and i passed out for a slight nap

    i hate when i reach what i call a sleep block, where after so much reading i feel like a narcoleptic

    You could always write an e-mail to your professor/TA and ask him/her what will primarily be on the exam. I sinecrely doubt they'd be able to test deeply on 500+ pages of material. Just write in and ask what material should be prioritized. Worth a shot.

    we've all been asking and he says its best to "know as much as possible"

    i honestly would just skim it all if the final wasnt worth 50% of my mark, if i do bad on this i potentially fail the course

    reminds me of my stats class, except i actually did fail if it werent for the wonders of the curve

    i got 213 pages done today and decently memorized

    hmm.. i would just skim the titles of each section and read few of the first and last paragraphs just to get the general idea.. but do pay attention to big chunks of material that dominates let's say a whole chapter.. that you should read through thoroughly.. other than that.. skim everything else..

    what about notes? are they of any help to indicate what's going to be on the test?
