Math Placement Test

I've been bustin' my ass studying for this placement test in hopes to get into Math 241 at UH Manoa. If I get into 241, I'll be able to take my GG250 class which is the MatLab or Scientific Reasoning for Geology. Along with getting into that class, I'd be able to qualify to get into Physics 151 or 170 and when I finish both, I'll be done with my Physics requirements and maybe I'll take Quantum Mechanics as an elective. Quantum Mechanics! But anyways, I took the practice test online yesterday and I got a 10, you need at least a 14 to pass and get into the class. I did more studying today and I got a 15! But I don't want to stop there yet. I want to at least be able to understand all the problems and know how to solve them all then maybe get higher than a 15 on the actual exam. My placement test is going to be on Monday at 1:30p. Don't know how I'll pull off cramming before that time since I have to go to work and learn how to sample some more groundwater, both sea and fresh waters. Other than that I was very productive today. Got to clean out my closet, clean my room, do my laundry and wash my bed sheets. Now I'm debating on whether to sleep now or later since I have to go to work tomorrow. But it's my last day! Well not really since I'll still be working once a month to update my paycheck. But still, yaaaay!

Hope I pass,
