FINS1613 exam --> Wanted to rip the entire paper to shreds. Obviously did bad in it. As did a number of other people. It doesn't deserve a fuck.

MGMT1001 exam --> Two hours and a little bit certainly isn't enough time to finish 40 MCQ and two essay questions, especially when said essay questions have to be in proper essay format. Introduction, body, conclusion, that sort of thing. Well, at least it wasn't difficult. Didn't even properly study, just memorized the 10 theories for the case study and read the case study twice. Still knew the answers to most of the MCQ. The rest, just did a little guesswork based on common sense and I'm hoping that my guesses proved correct. As for the two essay questions, because I didn't have enough time, all my sentences look like crap and the flow of both essays suck, but the answers themselves are pretty alright.

Will let you know how the ECON1101 exam goes when I take it. Might be the best exam out of the three that I have.

MATH ~ standard straightforward test.

If only I applied myself more throughout the semester rather than cram.

Oh well no more maths for me.... Hopefully.

ARTS2451 (Intermediate Chinese B) - Ridiculously hard, but was answerable though. Even if it was a Non-backgrounder exam, it was still so hard because the teachers ripped off a newspaper article and expected us to comprehend that :/ That being said, I hope I got around 60/100 raw though :S

FINS1613 - FUARRRRKKKKKK I guessed 60% of the paper. But I wanted to rip that subject to shreds anyway, coz I fucking hate it to death =_=

ACTL1001 was pretty difficult. Lots more maths in sections I had never imagined. Less theory than I thought there would be. Nevertheless, most of it was doable though and BSable.

Just did my last exam, Microeconomics (ECON1101). Questions weren't necessarily too hard if you studied, but I was procrasti-cleaning (get it? procrastinating by cleaning) and didn't manage to study all of the chapters, so the "essay" questions, which focused on the chapters that I didn't get to before the exam, were difficult for me. Luckily though, one of the essay questions was similar to a question in the online quizzes, so I was still able to answer everything. ;)

Multiple choice wasn't too difficult. There were a few that I was pretty stumped on, but most were pretty decent.

I'm hoping for at least 40/65. My written answers were all over the place, but I'm hoping that they were right. If not, I still hope I'll get some marks out of them, haha.

I wasn't talking about your shitty first years subject. This thread is designed for gloating, so I was gloating about finishing within half an hour this afternoon.
