Too bad she says she doesn't mark on a bell curve.

LOL ya 61%, was surprised i was above the average.

Its true though, bunch of tricks. However, someone before mentioned if x/y = z, we have to be able to find all three variables... obvs not as simple but

:heckno:

People don't realize you can drive THROUGH the roundabout and up gaglardi, or up the back side of campus. Even waiving my arms doesn't get their attention :concentrate:

Probably just think you're unce'ing because you're bored.

The new roads look nice. Too bad I don't have a car to drive on them lololol.

Also CMNS130 with David Newman is pure lulz minus the papers for the course.

When do enrollments usually begin for students new to SFU? I got admitted for the Spring semester but I would not want to check my student center everyday if it is the fact that it does not come for the next month or two anyways. Thanks.

Took the first of my last midterms today.

Good luck to everyone for midterm season!

And it was HSCI 180. I know there are at least 2 people in the class with me. How did you find the exam?

Did you do it already? when I took his tests (3 years ago) I found he asked a lot of author/reading specific questions that didn't test as much about understanding as it did memorization.

i.e., "What was XXX's theory in his "blah blah" published in 1904?
a. (blank) theory
b. (blank) theory
c. (blank) theory
d. (blank) theory

I'm more used to questions that list the theory and ask you to describe it.

Do they scale grades at all in Crim?

See you there!

And a big fat LOL to the midterm study tips that were posted this morning: re-read every course reading, re watch every lecture, re do every tutorial.. Thanks for the pro-tips day of exam.

Holy crap people are retarded. Saw two people slam their breaks to cut into the right lane last second. How do they not realize that both lanes can go right...

Cr33pUh 10-15-2014 09:38 PM

It went as expected, though there was a lot of details to remember. Had a physics exam the day before so I barely spent any time on it.

Overall, not too bad :toot:

On a side note, got 1 I-Clicker incorrect so far in the semester....40% of your grade :fuckthatshit:

My iclicker is also at 100% (though I got some wrong but I think they might have been dropped?).

Anyone take anything with Ajit Thiara?

You get 50% just for showing up and 'clicking in', and an additional 50% for getting at least half the questions correct -- that's how it was for me when I took it

Ended up getting above average, but not an A :okay:

Pretty sure chapter 3 with all the regulations fucked me over

For this semester, the worst 2 I-Clicker quizzes are dropped. No marks for answering the question.

I should take some of my own advice.

I posted a while ago that I took 3 courses last year and worked 30+ hours a week and to avoid doing that.

For some reason I thought it'd be smart to work 30+ hours a week and take four courses this semester.

Some sleep would be nice.

However I am pulling my grades up from last year which is a huge boost, at least, for now it is.

Luckily my manager at one of my jobs is very lenient with my hours and has given me some spare time to dedicate to studying during the midterm weeks.

^ you sir are a beast. Hope your hard work pays off in the future.

I've been doing part time school/work and I'm drained from everything.
