I just finished a 40 hour take home final--ask me anything!
Or not--there is a very real possibility of me going back to bed in a minute.

1. Is this for law school, perchance?
Those exams are even worse than in-class exams, I think. Get some rest!

2. This was for graduate level data modeling
Essentially turning Excel into a program that makes my computer cry.

I can see simulations inside my eyelids right now.

4. The work is fun, the hours are not
My hand in was 17 megs of Excel files (how the hell can you make an Excel file that big?) on a CD and about 40 pages in print outs to support my conclusions page.

My hope is to be close on 80% of the "real" answers and my stated assumptions will allow me to earn modelling points on the other 20%.
