[UoM] 2013 Semester 1 Results Thread

[simpak]

Well, I'd say people tend to stick in their own areas, so probably not?  Like, depending on what you apply for.
Alternatively, I have friends who get ~90 on their Arts assessments, you just have to get good at writing for university.

Probably gonna piss some people off, but I reckon that a 95 in a humanities subject outweighs a 95 in an engineering subject because of the subjectivity of the marking scheme.

edit: spelling

[simpak]

Obviously, speaking from a wide background haha, it is easier to get very, very high marks in Science subjects than it is in Arts subjects.  But I don't think it's easier to get a H1.  Just more likely that you would get more low H1s in Arts putting in the same amount of work to get a high H1 in Science.

EVERYONE I KNOW (INCLUDING MYSELF) DID BADLY IN CALCULUS 1 TONYCHET IT'S NOT A BAD SCORE
Seriously, I wonder why they didn't scale marks up at all given the enormous number of P and F-boundary students.
It seems a bit mean to blame the students when the exam was so awfully cruel in comparison to all the set questions/lecture note examples/everything we were provided with. :')

If its any consolation it was exactly the same situation last year.

P == First Class Honours? Probs a typo I reckon. Regardless, congratulations!

Yeah, I was really perplexed when I first saw this. I was freaking out and I called the student centre and they confirmed that it should be indeed be a H1 and that it would be rectified. I should probably follow this up.
