EXAMS OVER!!!

[Stig]

On the plus side, A* in ICT GET!

ICT GCSE was awesome. Easy exam, easy (though quite work-demanding) coursework, easy GCSE!

The Double Award one we did was a huge epic pile of steaming gooseberry fool.

Might as well have been called "Secretarial studies."

I felt very ill this morning and I had to be at the football stadium at 9am for my 'Theory of Computation' exam. It meant getting a coach at 8am, which meant leaving my flat at 7am, which meant getting up at 6am

I was expecting this exam to be the worst of them all and as I felt ill and knew I would fail anyway I came very close to just not turning up, but common sense prevailed and I forced myself to make it in on time. It turned out that the exam was actually not too bad. I'm sure I still failed but some of the questions were just true of false questions so there's a fair chance that my guesses will be correct.

Another 9am exam tomorrow, this time maths

Finished my last exam this morning, three hours, went quite well. Freedom!

One of the modules I did had a small portion of the marks measured by a multiple choice exam. So utterly pointless, I barely had to think about any of the answers and completed it in fifteen minutes, almost insulting if they thought anyone would be that ignorant. They should have just put those few marks onto the written work rather than bothering with that bollocks.

My Maths exam this morning was actually very easy
Of the five exams I've had so far this is the only one I'm confident about. At least now I get a weekend off after 4 days of non-stop revision and 6am starts

My next exam is another Maths exam on Monday and then I get a whole week off before my final exam (Principles of Programming) a week on Tuesday.

I'm trying to revise the Roman army. Who would have thought it would be possible to make stabbing and war so boring?

[Chocolate Jim]

Bsc Business Management

Overall degree grade - 72.97% FIRST CLASS DISTINCTION

GET THE FUK IN!

[satriales]

Well done!

[Corazon de Leon]

Nice one Jim. I'm hoping to get a good degree when I finish in two years time.

Maths Terminal Exam today. Was incredibly easy - finished Paper A in half an hour and Paper B in 45 minutes. I only need 73/100 to make my final grade an A* as well

[Madness]

Media exam today. Went well, considering I hadn't revised.

Nice suprise with the video clip - Doctor Who!

[Red]

Roman Army and North West Frontiers exam went ok today. I got to do my patented "Emperor Tiberius was actually a really great guy" rant which cheered me up after a tricky Hadrian's Wall question.

Tomorrow morning - Onset of Revolution: Rome from 148 - 78 BC. My favourite module so I'm hoping it goes ok. Give me a nice juicy question on Marius and I'll be a happy bunny.

I had a Maths exam today. I was expecting it to be quite easy as whilst revising I had no trouble with any of the past papers, but it was actually quite hard. I don't think I did too bad though.

[Stig]

My exam today was pretty horrific.

I'm not a lawyer, and will never be, so why I'm doing an exam on "legal issues" I don't know. I might make a complaint.

There was a multiple choice question, where all of the answers were correct .

And we had another question which asked if Facbook was secure or not. Depends entirely on your definition of secure.

[That]

Maths! Went well I think, only fluffed one question!

You do CompSci yeah? Those questions would be reasonable I guess. Surely the Facebook one you would've had in the bag?

Yeah.

Unfortunately, it was an exam run by "Information Science." I don't know if her definition of secure is the same as mine.

I mean, technically speaking, FB isn't secure, its all in HTTP, apart from login which is HTTPS.

But she doesn't know this.

It was just mostly ambiguous crap. Oh well.

Got an exam tomorrow I can do well on!

[Stig]

Some people complained about the exam yesterday, so the lecturer added answers so there was more than one correct answer to the ambiguous multiple choice questions I mentioned above!

Exam today went well .

[Alex Harman]

Had an absolute NIGHTMARE in the Geography exam today. Ended up having to skip out so many questions due to my poor time-management skills

[That]

Anyone else here have AQA GCSE English Language today? If so, does anyone else know people that forgot to check the information leaflet properly, and ended up doing questions on only the front-cover of Item 2? I can't imagine how anyone does that, but I'd say a good quarter of people I spoke to did.
