omg, CUL100... *shudders* So, so so so painful.
The big fat ARTS100 one is a little scary too...
I'm ok with 2500 word essays now. They're not fun, but at least they're doable. I've got myself on a kind of 3-4 day for each essay thing now
Hurrah!
All in all I prefer final essays for some subjects... subjects like ARTS210 would just be a nightmare to memorise, and even SOC289 would be hugely difficult unless it was a short-answer exam (which it was). CUL100 would have been really yucky to "study" for as well, especially if you had to do an in-exam essay :S Can you say "ouch"?
