So I'm on holidays. Or at least not being in university-days. I have three exams to revise for, one of which is all day. Yes ALL day. By which I mean from 9.30 till 4.30 (your opinions on the all-dayness of this may differ from mine, but in my head this is most firmly all day).
Said exam is a practical examination. The other two are a multiple choice computer exam, and an essay exam. The computer exam includes negative marking too. Frankly I'm not sure which I'm more terrified of.
However, since we have the grades for the coursework associated with the essay based exam I have spent part of my day working out what I need to score to pass. Yes, I am a bit weird, I spent my day calculating what everyone in my class needs to get to pass (yes I do need to get out more).
I need:
Fail Marginal to get a bare pass (a D-), it is impossible for me to get an A, to get a B I need a B+, to get a C I need a D-, and to get a D I need that oddly named Fail Marginal.
I like this. I like having some kind of focussing point.
It would be nice if I knew what I had got for the coursework in the other two...
In other events. I have changed several of my modules for next semester, and now am doing a work placement module. Erm where ??

A week gone
First I was ill, and then it was the snow...it equals no university for a week and two assignments that I manically drove people nuts over got extended.
My computer died a bit, I've watched too much crappy daytime television and I've taken up eating bizarre food combinations...all in all I feel as though I am *truly* living the student life.
In other news its my birthday tomorrow, woo me...I was going to be tremendously sensible and use my book tokens/gift vouchers for uni books. However, I was persuaded out of this and now am the proud owner of Superfreakonomics, How to Teach Quantum Physics to Your Dog, a Jo Nesbo novel, and some Woody Allen films...
