Recit Speed Record
Today, our Crimpro prof had to dismiss our class early. Unfortunately (or fortunately) he paced the class as if we would go the full 2 hours. So when he had 20 minutes left, he looked down and realized we had 7 cases to go through and 5 minutes to do it in.
He called me on case #2. I knew it well, and recited on it -- for one minute. Then he let me sit down and called someone else on another case.
On one hand, it's cool that I wasn't so, what's the word, grilled this time around. I didn't even have the chance to get the altitude sickness associated with standing up for recitation for long periods of time.
On the other hand, imagine if all the profs held 1 minute recits every day. That would mean they could theoretically call 60 students in an hour. That would mean, in a 2 hour class composed of 40 students, you would be called 3 times. Brrr. Not a pleasant thought.

I remember Mison doing the same to you. Mison was like that. One case and you're done. Maybe two to three questions just to see if you got it.
My last Salvador recit was horrible. Aik. Don't want to dwell on it too much. Anyway, as I told Mike, have been floating since midterms. This is not getting to be a good habit. :P

That actually happens in some schools... I have a friend studying law in PLM (where Judd Roy holds his deanship... phooie!), each class has an average of 10 to 15 people. My friend had Mison for Oblicon and each person gets to stand up for recit about 5 or 6 times for a 2 hour class... sheesh! sucks man!
