Exam Misery

[marguerite_krux]

 Eeeiiik. So doomed.

So, my Psych exam was only two hours long, even though it was 2.5 hours *last* year but given that the exam is only 120 multiple choice, I wasn't too bothered. Then I walked in and found it was only 80 questions- which, yay! But ouch. 'coz people were discussing it loudly afterwards [which I hate] and they kept saying that the questions were copied word-for-word from the practice exams which I DIDN'T DO. *facepalm* Ick. That's just mean.  Anyway, it only took me an hour [not to say that I knew everything- I didn't know about 30 of the questions, lol], which now gives me more time to memorize my three essays for Sociology, which is on this afternoon.

How evil is that, two exams on the one day? How does the same nightmare happen to me again?

So it's a seen exam, seven questions- but only five will appear on the exam, and if I walk in and the essays that I've prepared aren't even an option then I will be majorly pissed. What's the point of a seen exam if some of the topics aren't available? You concentrate the students' attention on a few specific areas and then, just for fun, you deny them the opportunity to show off their breadth of knowledge? Examiners are Teh Suck.

Soc has already been a sore point with me. I found out this week that the questions I thought were going to be on the exam were actually NOT the exam questions. It turns out the document marked 'exam advice' and put on the main page of the Sociology unit on DSO was from last year. Which lends credence to my theory that all lecturers suck. I mean, to deliberately go and put up questions from a past exam and mislead kids into preparing for the wrong thing? EVIIIIL. I was up to 2am this morning, frantically trying to recommit to new questions. Not fun. And now I'm wasting time here, gleeing over the new icons

rory_elizabeth has put up. Torri squee!

Damn it, focus. Soc. Think Soc.

[And don't damn Netty for doing the exact same unit but as a third year meaning she got to do two essays and NO EXAM. *sulks*]

PS. I hate myself for saying 'which' so many times, but I'm a little braindead from exams, so forgive my lack of creative wording.

And wtf is there a break in the line for? Meh, can't be bothered formatting.

GO STUDY OMFG! LEAVE LJ ALONE!
