    Today was a long day but nice to get most of databases done with. Not really worried about that exam, just gotta nail OOAD over the weekend.

    Yeah, why they felt the need to have those 2 exams on the same day is beyond me but it's par for course with the way 3rd has gone. It'll almost be a relief studying for Software. Sick to **** of coding and visual studio and bloody databases by this stage

    Think you might be in the minority there. Was talking to 6 or 7 different people after the exam and most of them found that everything they studied for didn't come up. Question 1B was kinda tricky, 2C and 2D I had never seen before so was pure guess work. Question 3 was really sickening as well. Think its annoying that so much weight is put on a single question. 31 marks for 2D was not what I wanted to see. Hoping I did enough but thought this one would have helped improve my average, which isn't going to happen.

    I got lucky so I knew question 3 fairly well just glanced at 2 and ignored it and found 1 ok not very easy but do able

    I was going to do path coverage etc but I thought it would have been question 2 and Q3 would have been on what we did our first assigment on. Would have thought best practices of test automation, top down or independece testing would have come up :confused:

    Was kinda weird this morning not having anything to worry about for the next 2 and a half weeks, i've had a nagging feeling all day that i should be doing some project or assignment then I have to convince myself that we're done till January, then an hour later that nagging feeling will come back.

    Hell week almost over, thank fook. One more assignment and I might be able to enjoy xmas (day). It sure does test your commitment at times considering what you have to sacrifice. Anyway, I'm done for now, bah humbug!
