Summary of what's happening (if it was the same as last year):
1. You'll get to do it in your tutorial time on a week.
2. The questions will be different for each tutorial.
3. You will be given some time to write an essay response to a question. There will be one question per tutorial.
4. It will be marked out of 10.
5. Your tutor will mark it, you will get it back in not too long; the biology department has a good history of being well organised and getting back quickly. I think we got ours in the next tutorial/practical timeslot.
6. The questions will not be troll questions.
For the MST here is a summary:
1. You will do it during your practical timeslot. The rest of the time for the practical you will do a short practical (once again this is if it has not changed from last year).
2. You will get 25 or so multiple choice questions.
3. They will release the answers later in the year on LMS via a pdf where you can see your student number and your score (but no name).
4. The questions are not troll questions.
5. If you miss it, I think they will average your marks out for the appropriate questions on the exam to work out the derived score for the MST. This is PROVIDED you supply appropriate documents that sufficiently address the reason as to why you missed it (make sure it is appropriate - refer to lms for details).
