2 down, 2 left

I've done 2 exams already and have 2 left. one on thursday and one on friday.

thursday's one. I think i'll be okay once i get through the material and do some practice exam papars. we are allowed a cheat sheet so I can write stuff on it. so im not too worried about that. but I do want to do really well in it, since I've only last 1% in my assessment so far. so I want a decent mark for it. but the exam is worth 70%... :(

friday's is shitting me cos I dunno anything. I shall study some of friday's exam maybe later 2nite. its worth 80% and I'm a bit worried. cos its hard! :( But I shall try my best to pass it~

the first exam I did was probably the most important one. it was worth only 50% BUT BUT BUT... the marks for this subject will be contributed to my average to get into my Postgrad. So I had to do extraordinary well for it. I spent nearly 10 days studying intensely for it, covering all the dervations of forumalas and trying to understand everything. And what it turns out, none of that was examined :( what a total waste of time! but I think i did okay to get over 75? maybe 80+? who knows...

2nd exam which i did a few days ago. I think that went okay. I had a week to study for it, but i practically procrastinated for 4 days. it wasn't until after the 4 days I felt the "importantness" and how the exam was approaching. it was only a 2 hour exam and only worth 50%. I was smart. I only studied the sections that i thought it would be on the exam. Cos I remember the lecturer saying that there will be 9 topics that will be examined on the exam but we only chose 5. So I went through the course and drew out the 9 topics and then picked the 5 that I was most comfortable with. And (thanks God) that all the ones I picked were exactly on the exam XD! Although at times I went mind blank and didn't know what to write. But since it was a management subject, as long as it made sense, its logical and somehow complies with the theory we covered, then it will be partially right. Unlike maths where its either right or wrong, management you can bs your way through and still get marks. I answered everything and wrote like a crazy man. Wrote like 26-pages. But then again, I had massive writing and you know the exam books they have huge margins and lines. so in actual fact it ain't that much. But anyway, my hands was tired after the exam and I was so relieved I got that exam out of the way. I know I wont get H1, cos I didn't do well in my assignment during the year. But I know I did well enough to pass, and hopefully a decent mark too, not just a P.

Now I shall go and study. I dunno why, but it seems like throughout these weeks Ive been putting tvb first instead of studying. I'm really up-to-date and I'm loving the new sit-com with 李司棋, 黎耀祥 and 毛舜筠... and the other one with 林峯 & 楊怡. XD.

toodles...
