Actually we may have 2 programming exams before xmas and maths after xmas or it could be visa versa. IT apps first week of Dec in excel and access.

We only have 2 exams for xmas, all others are CAs.

I've absolutley no idea how I did in the maths exam, hadn't a clue how to mathematicaly calculate percentiles or that one where 1:x and 3:y. Im terrible at maths so I'd gladly take a 40% pass at this stage.

As for programming, I'm gonna have to crawl through labsheet 6 and hope I can pick it up, as it stands I wont even be able to attempt a question.

Need to look over the end of semester exam questions, see if ti will give me a bit of hope. The worry is that even if I do scrape a pass, when we go onto Java ill be totally lost.

The thing I found difficult for maths was time. We really didn't get enough time in 1 hour to complete it. The exam should have been in the 2 hour class

Aye, I didn't have enough time to double check any of my calculations, and for the standard deviation stuff, you need to double check it as its so easy to make a mistake. I was really surprised by the marking in Visual Comms, has really taken the pressure off the final project.
