    I'm wasting so much time on Anatomy, it just takes me hours to learn ANYTHING, eughhhhhh.

    Anatomy is a bitch like that. A lot of effort has to be put in to make any progress. If its any consolation, second year anatomy is harder again. :)

    Thanks, I feel an awful lot better now...

    It's all going to be fine. It'll be fine. I'm actually quite confident about Anatomy now! Going to DR the shizz out of it tomorrow and confound all my newfound knowledge. It'll be fine....


    ...:(

    Kwekubo, can you remember the sort of questions that came up in the microbiology exam in the lab sessions. Have mine tomorrow.
    Im expecting questions like, what does CLED stand for, miles misra calculation, number of microbes deemed significant in a MSU sample, handwashing technique, e.t.c.

    Anything out of the ordinary come up last year?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,889 ✭✭✭evercloserunion


    Some days it's just so hard to get motivated even when you have the fear of an exam in a couple of days. Horrible, all you can do is hope tomorrow is better I suppose.

    That stuff sounds about right, yeah. Can't really remember much other than it was really straightforward. Know the handbook backwards and you're laughing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,937 ✭✭✭mardybumbum


    Great. I know the handbook pretty well.
    33% of our total microbiology score seems a lot for 30 mcq's but if they're as easy as Dr. Smith makes them out to be Im not complaining.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,361 ✭✭✭bythewoods


    I do medicine, NOT ENGLISH.... AND I'M SLEEP DEPRIVED.

    I'm so mad with myself for typing something so stupid, ha! LEAVE ME ALONE.

    I frickin love anatomy! Find it easiest out of all my subjects. I dunno, I guess I've a good study thing going with one of my classmates.

    Not looking forward to neuroanatomy though. :eek:

    Hope the exams went well. 2 more to go for me. WHoOoO!

    They begin the week of August 30th.

    :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,536 ✭✭✭Mark200


    Anyone know when the results will be? Doesn't seem to be any mention of it on the calendar.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 460 ✭✭Gerty


    I think near the end of June as far as i've heard.

    If you have to repeat, do you have to repeat them all?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 113 ✭✭poppy08


    August 30th- sept. 10th.....well i'm assuming repeats is the colloquial term for supplement exams?

    ...i'll be seeing you there by the looks of it :o

    yeah but the one thing i don't get is do you have to take all the tests again or just the one's failed?

    If you have to repeat, do you have to repeat them all?

    Be warned that regulations governing repeats vary from course to course.

    Some courses will require people to repeat those papers, and only those papers in which they failed. Others require those who fail the Annual Examination to repeat all papers, or to repeat all papers in a particular subject that they have failed. There is no common policy across College.

    Also some courses allow compensation between papers, others don't.

    Unless possibly you are posting in a course-specific thread, don't rely on responses on boards. Check your departmental handbook, or maybe with the College Calendar. And if that doesn't answer your query, check with your department(s).

    Our results are out June 1st. Very efficient I must say!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,361 ✭✭✭bythewoods


    We're getting a provisional list of who failed at the end of next week apparently. For today's exam and tomorrows at least.

    Tomorrow will be the most painful day ever. Gawwwwwd I hate Biochemistry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,597 ✭✭✭dan719


    If results come out on the day of my 21st, I'll ignore them for at least a week. Have already cancelled plans to head to France, and Rock En Seine.:( Best of luck to everyone who is still going.

    There will be a pdf of all the dates of results publication put up here https://www.tcd.ie/Examinations/Results/vpexamresults.php in the next few days. According to the exams office they are waiting on just a few departments to get back to them.
