Anyone here sitting the Biological Psychology exam tomorrow? I'm thinking of leaving the brain out, simply because I can't draw and that topic bores me to tears, is this a bad idea? I'm studying:

The Resting potential
The Action potential
Synaptic Transmissions and different ESP's and ISP's
Classifications of the Nervous Systems

I don't think i'll have time for much else with all the Developmental to do. I may have a quick look over it tomorrow morning, once Piaget's theories don't stress me out too much!

I don't think that's a bad idea. I'm gonna study it myself, but just because I did LC Biology so it's something I'm kinda familiar with already and I'm gonna study synaptic transmission as well. Biological is my weaker of the two questions so I'm hoping for a really nice Developmental question - Piaget or attachment and I'd be so happy!

I haven't even LOOKED at Developmental yet. I'm gonna learn Piaget and that Social Development thing. I really doubt anything else is going to come up as an exam question to be honest.

Did not realise there was quite so much to learn in Biological... oops!

I've just taken a look at the MP110 exam, and realised how much I've forgotten. *curls up into a ball*

DylanII · 06-01-2013 07:47PM

Trying to decide if I should study or not?

Im quite sick, thinking of just resting for today and then going at it tomorrow. . .

spartacus815 · 06-01-2013 08:00PM

watching voice of ireland to motivate me from not studying :P

Geo10 · 06-01-2013 08:05PM

I have an exam on the Vikings tomorrow and I have yet to start studying. It's literally the worst module in the world. I'm just gonna take a chance and study the few topics I think will come up. After all isn't just studying your predictions what makes exams more exciting? :P In all seriousness though, I feel sick leaving out so much and taking this chance but I don't really have an option at this stage!

spartacus815 · 07-01-2013 02:52PM

Translational clinical research was grand.... 1 down, 3 to go. Next exam is organelle genome evolution on wednesday

HY118? If so, I had to endure the twelve weeks of torture that accompanied that module last year. I feel your pain!

Planemo · 07-01-2013 10:41PM

Shíttin EP222, haven't a clue about either electricity or electronics and the exam is three hours long!

PictureFrame · 07-01-2013 11:21PM

EN152A on Thursday week and I only went to lectures for 3/12 weeks. My own fault I know, here's hoping notes and cramming is enough!

Same boat. Went to so few lectures.

PopePalpatine · 08-01-2013 10:27AM

I had about 2 hours of sleep last night.

I'm surviving on headache tablets and power naps of 20 mins. Periodic table can go and F*** Off!

spartacus815 · 08-01-2013 08:18PM

In case something comes up on the paper that hasn't been asked before in the last decade :P

I'll be honest, I barely looked at previous exam papers.

Idjit · 09-01-2013 02:04PM

Anyone on here doing HY311? That exam was absolutely awful, the worst one I've ever done in the three years I've been here...Some of the questions were difficult to interpret let alone answer! Very unhappy with it.

spartacus815 · 09-01-2013 06:19PM

Organelle genome evolution went really well .... 2 down, 2 to go... next exam bioethics and biotechnology on saturday...

Daemos · 09-01-2013 07:01PM

Geography exams out of the way. I've never been so happy to start studying English

The Iontas building but you'll have to go in through a side door. It should be signposted though

DB21 · 10-01-2013 09:07PM

Risk Analysis done. Operations Research next on Saturday afternoon >_>

spartacus815 · 10-01-2013 09:24PM

Boeing777 · 10-01-2013 09:29PM

I'll be having my second Saturday exam this week and it's maths again

peacock169 · 10-01-2013 09:39PM

@Boeing
At least with this Maths module we have a better idea of whats going. Biggest fear is that its only 45 mins long. Definitely don't expect to get it finished.

I didn't finish the MT101S exam. I made the mistake of going for the hardest questions first.

Go past John Hume Building, keeping it on your right...keep walking to the end of the Iontas building...swing a right at the end of the Iontas building and there is a door on your right-hand side. Go in there and through the next door, then go left and you will see the cloakroom to your left and a little further on is the hallway leading to the foyer.

Get your seat number in the cloakroom.

Are there no maps online any more?
