    I have Elements of Tonal Harmony tomorrow and I am completely screwed.

    I have business law tomorrow and will be covering the whole course, for the first time, between 10am and 3:30pm.

    Note to self: Next semester prepare better (i.e. do any preparation whatsoever)

    I DON'T FINISH TIL THURSDAY. And I've got 2 exams left. Its poo

    Pretty sure I passes circuits-gotta thank some postgrads for that :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 212 ✭✭Villaricos


    Results should be out 5 working days after the first meeting of the "school board" (cant think of the name) in the new term. Varies by school, basically your results might be ready for a long time just waiting for the rubber stamp


    Seeing as my neighbour whos a lecturer has to have all his exams corrected and handed in by the 8th of January I think your point might be very very true!

    Got my very worst exam tomorrow - Foundations of Computing, how much do I loathe thee! I'll be finished on Wednesday at 11am though when I'm done with the C++ written paper. Can't ****ing wait. I can get back to some serious gaming then - Azeroth and Hyrule are calling!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,016 ✭✭✭Blush_01


    Finished today. Hadn't a clue what I was doing. Anyone know if I can elect to repeat the exam in May if I did awfully? (I don't think it was THAT bad, but that's not a good sign!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,255 ✭✭✭✭The_Minister


    Two more, one tomorrow, one on Thursday.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,578 ✭✭✭jimi_t


    I had my last 1st Sociology today. Have 2 dirty big english essays due and they won't accept them after tomorrow so no Redz for me tonight. However, if you see a tall, hairy drunk fella in the Traps from 3:10pm onwards tomorrow then say hi :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,896 ✭✭✭fish-head


    Done and done. I didn't get completely poleaxed up the proverbial but it was still a fairly crap harmony exam, as all of them are.

    I love being finished. And my last exam that should have been completely disastrous actually turned out pretty well!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,134 ✭✭✭gubbie


    I think everyone who's finished should be banned from posting here now. Its making me feel depressed :( Its bad enough that I glued my fingers together

    Then get off boards and go back to studying*

    One more exam to go, tomorrow at 5 it's all over.






    *Yes I'm aware of the irony of telling someone to go study when I should be studying.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,158 ✭✭✭Stepherunie


    Im tech = better than equipment but still not good - a hour just wasn't enough time to do myself justice - even an extra 15 minutes would have helped.

    4 down 1 to go. Mechanisms of Disease Thursday at 12.

    afaik if you repeat an exam you can't get better then a D-. So I dunno if it would actually be worth putting yourself through it again for that.

    Failed Art history yesterday, seven questions out of 12 or so topics, and I did the five topics that didn't come up...hmm...clever me :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭snickerpuss


    Hey Cannibal Ox i wrote some unbelieveable nonsense and i still passed in first and second year AH. They're pretty good about marking so if it was a bit iffy don't worry too much.

    Unless it was really bad, in which case i sympathise cos i've been there with English. Such bad memories...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,033 ✭✭✭Chakar


    Whoo hoo I had a exam on Saturday, Sociological Theory 2 and that exam went well along with the two I had today in Comparative Politics and Politics of the European Union which were SO easy because I knew my stuff.

    I'm finally finished on Thursday with one last exam.. in Power, Discourse and Political Action.:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,635 ✭✭✭tribulus


    Finished tomorrow at 2 with Receptor Mediated Cell Signalling :(

    A recap:
    Genetics: Should Pass
    Cell Biology: Doubtful
    Pharm Neurodegenerative Diseases: Pass
    Biostats: Pass
    Pharm: Chemotherapeutic Agents: Failed
    BMOL lab test: largely irrelevant


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,821 ✭✭✭18AD

    Trying to study for my last one at the moment... but it's REALLY hard! Because I just got my shiny new Macbook Pro *\o/*
    I've got my notebook between my 2 Macs right now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,561 ✭✭✭Umaro


    Business Law went surprisingly well. Have a B for definite.. maybe an A if the lovely Ruth Cannon is in the mood

    Tomorrow... one more exam.. ONE MORE EXAM. Operations and Supply Chain Management and I already have a huge portion of the Continous Assessment which should make life a lot easier for me.

    I can finally stop sitting in the library contemplating how boring life is.

    I liked it too. Suffered from my usual case name forgetting, but what the hell.

    Opps, not going to be as much fun. 4 hours before the exam, I'm on section 3 of 12. I don't have lots of continious as I missed one of the tests. This should be fun...

    /end complaints
    I'm in ur RDS, failin ur exams!

    I like.

    Enjoy your return to WOW on your shiney new Mac.

    Hehe, notebook between two Macs. :cool:

    Anyway, to all those who haven't finished them, chin up, it'll all be over by tomorrow evening if not sooner. Hang in there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    I'M FINISHED!!! :D

    Now to go home and sleep! I only had 2 hours sleep last night...

    It was really bad. I answered one question on 'the three modes of expression in Surrealism' with 'three' artists. I had no idea what the modes were, and wrote a two and a half page essay using Dali and that guy who did "This is not a pipe" (I still don't know his name) on something that I didn't know. In my other essay, I was supposed to write on three artists out of six for their technique and socio-political time, I wrote on two artists (Ballagh and Pollock) and what I wrote was pretty woeful.

    Never mind, I'm not too pissed about it because...well...it's over with now...:o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,561 ✭✭✭Umaro
