    Archaeology just there. Not to bad actually. 1 hour exam and 4 quesitons. thats about 1 page per question right?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 359 ✭✭Macseamusa


    I wish we had multiple choice in my archaeology exams. i was suprised when i was reading the exam before you guys came in, I could actually answer a lot of them, it was a nice paper, I actually learnt something in my 3 years.

    I had the same exam. The sample paper that was on the internet had all the long questions on it (8 on the sample 4 on the real one) . I did everything i needed to do since 9am this morning. 1 -> 1.5 pages per question. The Multiple Choicers were alright..... But the "fill in the blanks" was pretty harsh.

    How you set for applied and social?

    See my problem was I didnt go to lectures or attended a single tutorial and only started studying yesterday but was interupted by going to Des Bishop gig in Vicar St. [which was excellent btw] and then studied after while still drunk:v: :v:

    Ah well then! I suggest getting on Blackboard and getting all the Dev+Bio Notes before they are taken off. Everything you need is up there. (about 60 pages :eek: ) ...

    App+Soc is the most boring load of piss I have ever done. I actually walked out of about 5 lectures cause yer man was so boring. Didnt go to loads but Its not on till tuesday so Im going to start going over the notes and stuff in the morn... Good Luck with the rest of the exams...and the BioDev repeat :D

    Looks like I'm in your class too. How did you find E+E and Thermo/fluid? Free 'till Monday :D

    Don't do E&E either due to being in structural but I did 12 lectures in it cos i was originally in undenominated,did the mid term test and the practicals in it though.How'd E&E go anyway?Thermo/fluid went ok partly cos i crammed like a mofo the day before.I'm screwed for chemistry how u set?What type of engineering u doin?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,578 ✭✭✭Scraggs


    Anybody know when we get our results???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,868 ✭✭✭Alkers


    Did you get a second round Structural offer or what? I'm in undenominated. E+E my best exam so far I think. Haven't looked at chemistry (not that I even have anything to look at)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 113 ✭✭mickomack


    Nah I appealed Irish and it went up so got in around Mid October,Have you done chemistry before?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,868 ✭✭✭Alkers


    Nope and I copied at least 80% of every tutorial!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 113 ✭✭mickomack


    Yeah I'm fairly screwed I'll probably be repeatin it in August/September:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    I had bio&dev psychology today... went alright I guess. I didn't do any of the developmental psychology short notes! :) I was really just hoping to pass, cos I only looked at the sample paper yesterday, and only read anything this morning, so I wasn't expecting to do good at all! I'd say I got around 45-50% overall, which I'll be happy with!

    Whats it matter if one little person in the exam hall is given a sly few answers to assist him his move towards a degree. And you make a sly €20 on the side? Everyone is happy. UCD is a faceless Evil corporation and they dont get hurt.

    1)I pass exams and avoid a life of poverty and syphilis
    2)You make money and have the personal knowlegde that you saved a man from the doll que
    3)UCD maintain high grades among students and it seems like a good college , more people will go and Herr Brady get more $$$$

    Can you point out a downside?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 359 ✭✭Macseamusa


    where did syphilis come into it?

    I'd help but Herr Brady has his spies everywhere....

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,750 ✭✭✭ghostchant


    Optics & topics in modern physics went well today...most of the stuff i expected to come up did...so its all good

    just atomic & quantum physics to do now...will probably be a bit harder anyway

    Well yeah :)
    I'm just glad that exam is over though, but I'm kinda pissed off. Everything I didn't know that well came up, and almost nothing that I knew really well came up. Grr.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,541 ✭✭✭irlrobins

    Fritz'z Concurrent Programming paper was a handy one today...
    Im defo taking his formal symantics unit next semester. Im so shallow.
    Note to current third years, next year Fritz gives a compulsory course - Dont listen to him in the lectures coz Youll get brain damage but just do the past papers from his notes and youll be well set.:eek:
    and now to go drinking...hic

    I take it all back. Fritz was spawned by the devil. I thought I aced his paper but he only gave me 50%, and the unit I thought I failed I got 67% in. what a joke. God knows how they marks papers in this university.
    Im not doin Fritzs unit this semester. Id rather eat my own head. I hate you Fritz. Friiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttttttttzzzzzzzzzzzzzz *gets dragged away kicking and screaming*
