How did the UMAT 2013 go in general? (modesty aside)

Pretty good, I'm pleased with my performance
Alright I guess
Not really sure, could have gone either way
Not too well, not happy with how I went
To be frank, a complete disaster
I didn't sit the UMAT 2013 today but like to respond to polls anyway

I have more than a few concerns about my S3 performance, but I don't think I did too horibbly.
Did I imagine it, or was there actually a question about an obese chick hiding a sandwich?
The guy who had to print his admission ticket off from Monash and the operator wouldn't let him?

Nah you didn't imagine it.  :P

Wow...

That whole exam was like a complete buzz of semi-indecisiveness, semi-going-through-the-motions. So unsure how I went though! Like.. at this point, any score is possible! I guessed like 15 like... wow everyone finished. I was really kind of crap with timing.


Anyone know when the results get released?
Around mid-September

Hey everyone,

I finished UMAT today at Sydney. Anyways I was really calm during the exam but maybe I was TOO calm because I ended up not being able to finish on time so I had to guess maybe around 15-20 questions (but it wasn't in order, they were skipped questions I knew I wouldn't have time to read). I went out feeling really crap because I mentally properly did a section 2 question that i guessed and cross referenced it to my MC and I said to myself "Well..those are DEFINITELY WRONG". But yeh, i went out feeling crap while most of my friends ended up feeling satisfied and some managed to finish on time. What do I do now? Now I'm worried that the answers that I thought are correct might be incorrect... I know that the results can't be controlled but I'm really worried that I haven't done enough and that I'd let myself down and everybody down who believed in me...what should I do to get this worry off my mind?

P.S. Did anybody here get a question which was a missing grid section, but two of the multiple choices had the same grid which happened to be the correct one? My supervisor said that it'd be reported so hopefully ACER will let both answers either be correct.

I didn't finish, guesed 5 at the end of the paper. Looked through the questions when they were collecting the answer sheets and none of them seem to be C gg.

And also, is it just me or was there a s2 about a 55 year old gay man taking interest in a young man...(not that there's anything (too) wrong with that)

Just on the note of S2 discussion:
- The answer to the last "bacardi type of guy" question wasn't that the woman would feel foolish by the end of the night, was it? Because I only realised after I was finished that that was probably extrapolating too much (the other questions sort of indicated that the man was leading her on to get free drinks or whatever, but I don't think that's enough to assume that she would feel a negative emotion when she was very positive throughout the entire extract)
- I feel sorry for the man whose daughter carries on a polite conversation while he's hammering on his emergency buzzer in another room.

This.

And to be honest, it won't do you any good. You're much better off just moving on and getting back to VCE imo.

I did shit. I had to guess ~7 questions in the end so that i didnt get penalised for writing after time. But this guy next to me kept shading even after like 20 seconds. I wanted to report him so bad....!

did any of you guys see a guy in a red jersey with a grey hoodie?
