    Generally happy, but I definitely have an Achilles' Heel: memory. When a subject makes consistent sense, and I can see how all the parts fit together to form a body of knowledge, I'm laughing. When a subject requires me to remember lots of arbitrary, disconnected bits of information, and regurgitate them flawlessly on demand, I'm screwed. This year (2nd, Structural Engineering) was a mix of both types, and my results run the gamut from A+ to E(C). Not all subjects are best assessed by examination! :o

    Happy with the results but I'll have to do much better in German if I really want that place in Berlin next year. And economics was my major worry but it won't be next year.:D
