Decedents' Estates Exam

The lid is on my fall semester. The grand finale--the Decedents' Estates exam--was a horrible nightmare, but that doesn't mean much. I've taken three of this professor's exams, and they've all been horrible nightmares. It would be folly for me to try to predict my grade.

I will say this: I was very unnerved by the fact that I had to use a calculator to answer one of the questions. Lawyers, law students, and law professors hate math as a rule, so exam questions are usually formulated for minimum arithmetic. The fact that my answer did not come out in round, easy numbers is strong evidence that I did something wrong. I figure I lost some points there.
