Lab test today. Three statistics program to use, each student will be allocated one of the 3 programs to use for the test. I was particularly weak at one of them, and there comes best of luck... i was allocated to use that program to solve the questions. It took me sooo long (15 min out of 45 min test) to do a first import of the data. I mean, without importing, no analysis can be done on the data set. Its like one comma missing, error msg, miss a period, error msg, add an extra bracket, error msg. Getting fed up with the error msgs and the messy interface, i did a ctrl+c and exited the program (without saving or even pasting in notepad 1st!!!). Relaunched the program,
then when i pressed ctrl+v... nothing comes out. Nothing. Nothing was pasted, so there goes my codings. I took another 7 min to redo the damn importing thing, by which time 22 out of 45 min had been used up. And as they say, the rest is history as the lack of time and my panicky hands proceeded to screw up the remaining questions.
ok, its only a test worth 5%, but what the #$^%, whatever % it was worth, it was a sucky experience.
