1st exam today -- ENVS1050 -- nothing like last years exam! Way too much emphasis on stuff they covered over 1 lecture rather than topics that spanned like 3-6 lectures... like we spent half the course talking bout soils and shit and we get one measly 5 mark question on it... we spend half a lecture talking about the 1st and 2nd law of thermodynamics and we get a frickin 20 mark question on it. I don't get it! :mad:

Are you freaking out about bio tomorrow? My heads overflowing with ecology and plants and animals and people running around demonstrating nutrient cycling and all this other ranom crap, but yet I don't actually know any of it...
and, I mean, I'm reading signs for "Colorado" as "Chloroplast"...thats just scary!

Na I'm feelin pretty confident... I mean 50 multi choice! I've had the benefit of ENVS1050 which overlaps a fair bit with BIOL1110 (well the ecology side of things anyway) so I've been able to maximise my study time :D I've studied bout all I can for bio now, hope there's no complex questions bout different animal systems... plants isn't much of a problem since we covered a lot of that stuff last semester. Bit worried bout that quadrat question on bb tho...
Meh... it'll all be over in 20 hours :uhhuh:

I'm dreading Biology.. all those phyla and phytochromes are spinning me out.

We get 65 multiple choice.. which is horrible because last year some questions had 2 answers exactly the same, some had more than one right choice and some had spelling mistakes so bad that it was unreadable.

Spell check, people.. spell check.

Yeah I liked it. So far I know I've only made a few silly mistakes. How good was Gary's 5-marker?! I wrote almost 2 pages for that! Good exam..

Yup, I wrote dead on 2 pages, but then 1/2 a page of that was diagrams, lol
I figure, he is marking it, and he is male, and men like visual things, so diagrams might score me browny points :p
There were a couple of 'argh' questions, but over all, I think it was awesome!

Haha yeah it was good...for an exam... can't believe they didn't change the animal questions... luckily I went thru last years exam on thursday morning :p ...and 65 multi choice!! Unbelieveable... I reckon that's bordering on the rediculous side tho... I was gettin way sick of the stupid (e) options - all of the above, only a & c, only a, b & c are correct... but yeah finished within 2 hours, checked over and left. Tho I do know a few people that had quite a lot of trouble with it lol :rolleyes: o_O

If the exam is already finished, how can you affect the mark:p?

You finished a two hour exam in thirty minutes:eek:? Or are you just exaggerating:p?


As I said in the other thread, STAT1050: Statistics For Business went really well. It was as I expected:). IRHR1110: Introduction To Management and Organisational Behaviour was a bit easier than I expected but I had to leave a few questions out. It was my most hated subject all year though and I didn't do much work or study for it so I wasn't expecting to go all that well:).
