    I've gotten by on cramming during study week for the past three years, but this year it just doesn't seem to be enough.

    The fact that there are only two this semester is nice, but i'm not looking forward to PHAR40070 tomorrow, in fact i'm really starting to panic:(

    I know what you mean. Just focus on past exam papers rather than cram. Pick out a few questions and develop an answer for them

    I feel pretty fine. Only worried about my first exam. Hopefully I can scrape a pass in it.(also the fact that its a 100% final exam sucks :() But anyway have 3 of my exams basically passed with 30% or more obtained already in them. So I am happy about that. Then the other two exams I feel comfortable that I can do well in.

    so does that mean you only need 10% from the final exam to pass? or do you have to get 40% in the final exam?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 48 JBUCD


    Yes I only need 10% in the final exam for them. Just takes a bit off pressure off me. Anyway I'm going to make sure I do well in the exam also so my gpa is good.

    Not a clue really- could be set, could be blissfully ignorant.

    Oh well, an exam is an exam. Life goes on.

    Good luck!

    Today should be ok, Cities in a Global Context, know the topics, and pretty much the questions coming up.

    Tomorrow, Sociology of Education...questions are quite tricky, but will hopefully get through it. Same as Theory 3 for sociology.

    All in all, should be ok, get by in the nick of time, although nothing spectacular.

    Good luck everyone.

    Finance. Oh dear. That is all.

    Six exams in ten days, all of them counting 70-100% of the course assessment. That is all.

    Political theory tomorrow. I'm so screwed.

    I've been looking at past exam questions all day and can't come up with any sort of structured answer. My only hope is to waffle my way through it and hope I show enough understanding of the issues.

    How did the assignments go? If I remember correctly, 40% is done before sitting the exam?
