Help me in my last days as an undergrad!!
Hey guys, here is a little quiz that you should take to help me in my final days of undergrad.... yes, it's ridiculous, but that's ok. Apparently, you should e-mail the responses to landslidesquiz@yahoo.com and you'll get a response with the correct answers. We need the responses as quickly as possible, so if you're doing a little late night e-mailing or maybe some early morning checking.... send those responses our way!
