1. How is it going to "help you" learn the material if we just give you the answers? Did your professor just give you the answers? The reason why there are people who can answer some of the questions is because…hmmmmm let me think about it…oh yeah AT ONE POINT THEY STUDIED! This is the reason why America’s educational system has fallen behind many nations these days. I hope your professor gives you a test with short answers and and essay. That way he can separate the students who know their poop, and the ones who don’t.
Ok, you said you didn’t want to hear people telling you to do your own homework. Well, I could care less whether I get ten points or not, because I know I will get 2 points just by answering.
Look, the reason why you have no clue as to what the answers are to these questions is because you didn’t study. Plain and simple. Don’t give me that "i did study, but this is my worst subject" nonsense. Professors at the University don’t care about all that. It is YOUR responsibility to study for class. You should be studying 2 hours for every one hour in class. You also should be reading your textbook prior to attending class, that way the information is re-iterated in your brain TWICE. Now, if you do all of that, would you be asking these questions? I guarantee you wouldn’t. Stop being lazy and study!
FYI, I am a finance major in college at the moment, have four classes (Management Fundamentals, Marketing Fundamentals, Business Law, and Managerial Finance) and this past week had FOUR EXAMS. One on Mon, one on Tues, one on Thur, and one on Fri. And for the record, two of those exams were multiple choice 100 questions. 2 were Fill in the blank. The point is that you have it easy. I bet if I studied for two hours, I could look at your questions above and answer them all correctly. Why can’t you??? Don’t even try to tell me I don’t understand.
