Title: EXAM 2 ALLOCATION OF TIME? TIME MANAGEMENT?
Post by: john.wu92 on June 20, 2011, 10:05:30 pm
Since exam 2 is 2 hours long,

How much time would You recommend onto the Multiple Choice?

Any tips? Thanks ^^

Allocate 2 min MAX on each multiple choice Q (Obviously some Q's will be done quicker than others) and the rest on the short answer. You'll find initially you may be spending 45-50min on the multiple choice but you should quicken up a bit with more practice and experience.

I've been finished for a month and initally put off starting trials because of chem and physics exams, now that they are over I continue to put them off! lost motivation for methods, want something harder, it's going to cost me slacking off, i have to get to it. anyone want to make me feel lazy and kick start me into trials by telling us the mountains of papers they have already done?
