    Why does time go by so slowly when waiting on silly score reports?!? (Are you hearing the Madonna song in the background? - time goes by ~ so slowly...)

    I find myself always asking, "did the mail come yet?" I mean, really, there should way more important things to focus on like my kid, my husband, my job, my running, heck, even my dog... but nooooo, my biggest concern is that one little, all powerful... SCORE REPORT (dhu-dhu-dhunn!).

    I keep thinking that if I didn't pass USSR, I'll just freak out!

    Maybe it's just me - should probably up my meds (kidding!)

    It has got to be brutal! Last exam and it's a DSST. I can't imagine!

    Hey, but it's your LAST exam! That's fabulous! You're going up there to walk the stage?

    I'm trying to make it so that my last few exams are all ECE's so that they'll get the scores fairly quickly. I find myself in the situation where my annual fee is due and I'm soooo close to graduating. If they get all my scores in with 30 days of paying my annual fee, they'll credit that fee towards my graduation fee. I'm cutting it close but hopefully it'll work out.

    It's my last U/L exam, however I still have to take CLEP college mathematics before I can walk -

    My average wait has been 16 days. Although my last batch of three exams all took 22 days.

    It is hard for me to move on 'mentally' to the next exams without knowing how I did on my last exams.

    I love that the DANTES are untimed (I can take as long as I want), but it seems that DANTES results are untimed also (they can take as long as they want).

    Waiting 2 to 3 weeks for the score is like needles in my eyeballs! But, we do what we have to do.

    You're not kidding!! I'm trying to get focused on my very last and final exam (which is tough enough) without having to struggle and be tormented with the pending results of my last DANTES - USSR exam. For now I'll presume that I passed it, however if I didn't, passing math won't mean a thing as I will miss the commencement deadline.

    I'm going on 20 days now with no results. It's driving me nuts. I'm becoming obsessed with the mail. I have my wife call me at work to let me know whether or not they came when she gets the mail each day. I hate this. :-P
