    Got lucky with Intro to Psy today.. the only topic i'd studied came up, and i remembered more than I thought I would so ended up with a pretty sweet essay.. and then the MCQ's were pretty common sense at times..

    nice start to the proceedings for me :D

    I did it two years ago. It was fine, most people from my class did very well indeed.

    I cant remember anything about the subject so to refresh my mind I flicked through my notes (have all the subjects I studies on my computer). Its the only subject in 3 years I have no notes for, only the course outline. I honestly cant remember what the lecturer looked like or anything. Got a 2.1 though; so I imagine it couldnt have been that bad

    Trauma Imaging. Much nicer than the sample paper,

    Felt I did ok to good in it. One of the questions was kind of unclear in that it divided into two sections but both were kinda asking you the same thing.

    Main problem was the 4 page answer booklets - I write every second line due to very poor writing skills when in a rush so I ended up with about 10 booklets at the end.

    Achieving the Millennium Development Goals, straightforward enough. He told us what was coming up, and we'd already done an essay on each of the topics. I wish they all did that.

    im in 3rd arts and i done it got a B plus. the mcq continous assesment is the worst mcq youll ever do but the end of exam is actually easy obviously this person never looked at the previous exam papers, own fault if you ask me.

    Financial Accounting went ok today, A few of the Q1's came up in past papers.Question 2 was just the same as mentioned in lecture, nothing too difficult but the 2nd notes got me, the one with the invetory.

    Well 2nd year sociological theory didn't turn out to be the nightmare it could have been! Thanks has to go to whoever put Gramsci on the compulsory section!

    psychology 1st year elective today, intro to child development, handy enough, same format as the mid sem exam, 10 mcqs, 10 short questions, one essay, we were given the topics before hand to study. 1 or 2 of the mcqs were a tad tricky i thought, in that alot of the possible answers i would have said were correct for the actual phrasing of the question :|

    Honestly if you want an easy elective next year(after summer i mean, its only on this sem 1) pick this as quick as you can.

    Another changed format here! Intro To Programming deviated wildly from the set format of the last 3 or 4 papers... absolute bitch of a paper it was by comparison to previous years...

    ...were we sitting the same paper? question 1 was the same word for word, pretty much. I had 3 questions done in about 40 minutes, would have done another one but for the fact that I'd forgotten arrays
