Poor guy indeed, hope he was alright.

Firstly good luck for all you QMB'ers tomorrow, go pwn that exam up and show who's boss. And Shinji best of luck for yours, last exam ever eh? :P

Sigh Contracts 2 Exam, most hilarious and lame case scenario ever. Last year's one was based on rugby league sex scandals. This year's one was even lamer. I'm sure we all remember all the fuss on BoS about Kyle Sandilands and his lame radio stunt. Turns out our exam was based ENTIRELY on it.

Of course the names were changed to make it sound "fresh". Kyle Sandilands = Carl Corf, 2DayFM = 2NiteFM. 2NiteFM lost their lucrative contract with Optus worth $5 million and it went on and on.

We were given 2 hours to complete it, but I think 2.5 hours was more appropriate. So much to write about in a short space of time. Man...I'll be lucky if I maintain that D for my final mark. Fingers crossed.


2 down 2 to go

[Uncle]

Finished the 3 day HSC exam marathon.

ELEC1111 -

Fuck the telecommunications questions and the train question.
But the rest of the paper seems good, no dependent sources please and god heard my calls.
Then a HSC exam style question worth 5 marks asking to "Explain in about 30 words what power factor is and why it is important to maximise the power factor."
I²R and other HSC crap....blah blah...

MATH2089 -

Numerics strand too easy.
Asked me to do Simpson's Rule and Trapezoidal Rule for pretty much one whole question, HSC stuff really.
Then asked to solve a heat PDE in space intervals of 0.5 in a 1 unit length bar, lol.
fucking statistics makes me write a lot of words for a maths exam. too long.
too much content stolen from his own lecture slides, some rote learning and other bullshit, etc.

MMAN2600 -

It was nice and easy then it just went downhill. Woohoo.
Why the hell would i derive Reynold's Number or find the appropriate tubing diameter.

[cjtk]

just finished my last exam today, had four exams in a row too, but thank god it's all OVER

[wrong_turn]

one down 2 to go. Just did PSYC2101. easier than expected. Expect voyeur material for my ECON3114 final...

Sadly enough I didn't even do that in 1A and ended up with a pass

BIOC2201 Theory:
Really happy with this one.
Prediction: 85%+

CHEM2021:
Bleh. Spectroscopy question got omitted on the day because the spectra came out really badly on paper. A lot of people were relying on it for easy marks, too. I was bored after I finished everything else and ended up solving it in 5 minutes. Fuck. Otherwise did ok.
Prediction: 75%+

Agreed.
MMAN2600's question 3 was bloody annoying, and I screwed up the train question for ELEC1111 as well. Oh well, at least it's over.

[Omie Jay]

train question was weird, i drew up some circuits, noted in the resistances in the overhead cable and the track, but apparently that question was in one of the tutes...

[tallkid34]

My first exam is tomorrow! How fucking retarded is that....

[Justina]

lol, my last exam is tomorrow :P

sometimes, its exam questions like these that make rote learning tutorial questions worthwhile.
i would have believed they would be more original in their approach for setting exam questions.

k, using rote learning in the future.
