Two Q’s.
I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED! I PASSED!
WHEEEEEEE!
Now I have to find an advisor/supervisor committee.
Well, quals are over for now. The analysis exam was 2:00-6:00PM on Monday and algebra was 2:00-6:00PM yesterday. I think I may not have failed them.
