Former GENE20001 students: how far back into the past exams is it worth going to for mid-semester test revision? The 2009-2013 papers are supplied for us on the LMS, and the 2007 paper is an online interactive quiz, but I understand that older papers are also kept in the university library. I'd obviously like to get in a decent amount of practice, but I don't want to go back so far that the questions become irrelevant lol.

From memory, the questions on the first MST (if it is still Ronald's MST) were quite a bit different from past exam questions. Many people worked together to solve the questions (but of course i didn't because that would be considered collusion  ;)). But there were some similar qns to the past exams. They tend to repeat every year but i personally didnt go back to before the 2009 exam

OK, thank you. I wouldn't be surprised if the MST is quite different from the past exams - I did the relevant parts from 2009 this morning and found that most of the questions were difficult and didn't really seem to be of a significant focus in Ronald's lectures. GENE20001 has been alright so far but I haven't given it a lot of attention due to BIOM20001, however I'm starting to see that Ronald's stuff isn't as easy as it initially seems. In fact, I'm actually finding it very challenging. Hopefully it will all resolve itself soon.

Ronald's section is the only difficult part of that subject. Partly because he struggles to teach it and also because the content is, in and of itself, actually quite difficult. Subsequent parts of the course are frightfully easy.

Your best bet is a faculty building or something similar. I don't believe there any general access ones though.

If it helps, in biochem a lot of the CAL stuff wasn't assessed. I'd literally have failed if it were.

They say "everything is assessed" yet never ask anything related to CALs ever

I ask because they said nothing to us about CALs and being assessed in exams at all.

I'm so excited to have Dr. Familari as our BIOL10002 lecturer for the next few weeks. Her lectures are so organized and comprehensive - kinda takes me back to VCE with the way she sets it out and how she includes key concepts, textbook questions etc

If the results were not quite what you expected, write the errors out and what may have caused it
