How'd you go on the first one CF? First of your gauntlet :-X.
Not bad thanks, was surprisingly happy with it. Next one is 9.50 tomorrow morning. I should probably be studying, but I've got to the point where I just think "flower it" ::)

That's a good start then but sounds like you're pretty burnt out already for the one tomorrow. I despise morning exams, I am not a morning person as I have been sleeping at like 5am past week or two. You say just flower it, but you'll probably revise a bit ;). Likely sleeping now as I send this :P.

As a little experiment for one of my exams (worth 40%), it's essay based with 2 questions. Going to pretty much wing it on the basic knowledge I have on the subject (1st year Criminology on Thursday) just to see how I go as only need like 2/40 marks to pass the subject haha. I like living dangerously >:D.

That awkward moment when you get 1/40...

I had my first of three hurdle exams today where I have to pass to pass the subject (lame).
I have one on Friday that I'm sitting on 38/40 for but don't actually know anything atm. So I either pass the exam and basically get a distinction, or I fail the subject.
Similarly, I have one next Tuesday that I think I'm in the 80s for but also know nothing. I hate that my exams this semester are irrelevant from the internal assessments :(

Wait, so you guys have exams that you don't need like, 50% to pass the unit? Last semester I needed 50% on all my exams, and this semester I need 50% on 2, and 40% on the other 2. flowering bullshower.

Still up HP. Tomorrow is only a practical exam where I have to demonstrate physio techniques, so not the hardest really.

Going in to the exams I am currently sitting on 14.6/20 for the one I sat today, 15/20 for another, 14.5/20 for another, and 36.4/40 for the last.

Should be fine haha

All of my engineering exams I have to pass. My science ones are about half half whether or not there is a hurdle. Arts is good because there's never a hurdle and the exam is usually worth 30% so you walk in already sitting on 60something :D

Yep, Arts is good like that :P. My Crim isn't a hurdle and neither is my Psych, although I always try to get over 50% anyway. One of my eco subjects isn't a hurdle so basically only one subject for me is (Mainly because the exam is worth 80%).

I know the feeling Huggy, barely studied for any of my subs as usually cram a day or two out, know how stressful it is so good luck there. Hopefully you're able to get through them with the passes!

;D. History class would be fun then, just sit there and look at the sky :P.

And sounds alright CF, sounds like you're on the ball for things :D.

out of the 3 exams I've done so far, I may have failed one, (chem but who needs chem anyway :P), the others I managed to wing it with 4 hours sleep and 1 day worth of study :P

Just aiming for those 50% marks. Nothing more is needed.

I'll take it maths is your last one then? Because I wouldn't be winging it if I were you...

Yeah, good point. That advice would be better coming from someone that's had Dane as a student. Maybe if there was someone out there who's had Dane as a student in the same class for the last two semesters, they could advise him on not winging it. Oh well ;)
