Yay, all tests are done for this term.
Two went okay, the other two ended up kind of rushed and/or there were questions I couldn't answer. Oh well. Now I just rest.
(And wonder if it's good to push myself so much towards perfection at the last moment...)

Yay!
What were the two that went okay and the two that wound up rushed?

I forgot the bounds that prove that an MLE is a minimum variance unbiased estimator when it is unbiased, in the stats case[1], and I didn't know the eigenvectors and -values for a particular type of matrix in the latter, nor how to augment certain root-finding methods to respect equality constraints at every step.
[1] I understood that was what I was supposed to have written there when there were 15 seconds or so left and I was separating the carbon copy pages. Similarly to how it's much more annoying to miss a train by half a minute than by half an hour, it's much more annoying to do something wrong and realize it just as it's too late than realize it days later. But I suppose the point is that if I knew the stuff better, I would have recalled it in time to begin with.
