Yeah, sounds about right. I'm getting burned out from school too. I thought I only had one assignment left but now I have three things due on around the last day of class, including two huge programming assignments we just got on Friday, and then I have my first final two days later. I thought I would finally get a break but it just has not happened.
It sucks but you just have to stick through it. I'm doing a couple classes I absolutely hate right now (I'm in third year) but I know when I finish I will have a job I like (most of the comp sci majors at my university graduate with a job lined up already).
For me it is more frustrating profs that make me hate school. I can handle the assignments, but when they don't answer questions or act snarky when I ask them things after class it makes it really hard to care about their class when it is clear that they do not. Also, when it is clear they put no effort into their lecture, or that they are just recycling an old one (this is especially bad in comp sic because of how much things change at times). One particular prof this term teaches me two different classes and it is clear he does not care about either of the classes or students. Being fully aware that we have a gigantic assignment due the second last day of classes, he had the gall to assign us another equally large assignment due the next day, and a math assignment also due that day. I'm glad I booked this weekend off work or I would be completely screwed. It'll still be tough to finish given I have other stuff due this week I have to finish first, but I'll manage.
So I will be skipping all his classes this week, staying home, and doing the assignments. I'll probably learn more this way anyway.
