Could have been SO much worse. I did very little of early Genetics revision since the MST which meant I fucked up some of Dawns 2-point MC but otherwise pretty much nailed it I think. Awesome that you felt good about it too. Oh I also didn't answer the parasite-co evolution question very well but cest la vie.

Totally grateful for there being VERY FEW prac related questions. Except I totally fucked up that plasmid MC question. Really should have clarified what the fuck was going on in that prac

Not bad! The only confusing questions were genetics-related, but those questions were very well set out; I'm just lacking when it comes to genetics. The only genetics I understand is that mankind's gene pool needs a lifeguard...

And I tried guessing some of your faces at the exam. Were you wearing black sunglasses, jeans, maybe a hoodie, and have sandy hair, Nicola?

+5000 respect for planning exam outfits in advance.
We would be great friends.

I threw you a curve ball and wore brown stockings instead of black ;c The hand of fate is fickle,  I'm so sorry!!1!


Edit: Also, I only just found out that magnificent weirdo Rick Weatherbee is a marine biologist n_n This is my understanding of his life now n_n

It's okay I forgive you.
I've given up on life I can no longer plan my study schedule let alone my outfits.

Haha didn't you know that about Rick? It's why he's so obsessed with Protists.
Nah that wasn't me, I was seat 1519 near the toilets, I looked out for red shirt black tights but didn't take note of any brown tights :-P hehe

I just want to put him in a big box with a ribbon atop and put him under my Christmas tree, he's adorable

Plot twist, I ran out of clean laundry  :'( Ohh, my stockings are dark enough to perhaps pass for black but I was seat 2954, rofl. Damn.
I am still on campus at Redmond Barry, studying for my breadth exam. I must be insane

Oh man I just had the nicest time catching up on sleep after that exam. Now time for food!!
and I'm pretty sure in the 6 hours between the exam and now, I've already forgotten everything I crammed last night. :'D

Which subjects are you all doing next year? I swear I will find one of you eventually!
Science-wise I'm doing Aus Wildlife Bio, Cell Bio, Animal S&F (sem 1), Plant Biodiversity, Biochem, Comp Animal Physio and Ecology (sem 2) if anyone actually wants to hunt me down (unlikely, I know).
(I am going to miss chem since I'm not doing it again until 3rd/4th year ;___;)

Human Physiology
Science and Pseudoscience (amazing breadth)
Biological Psychology
Principles of Human Structure

...Guess who will be copying off Nicola in the exams!

I haven't finalized the subjects but when I do, I'm begging everyone for notes to these subjects so I can be prepared next year.

Human structure and function
Microbiology and Immunology
human Physiology
Genetics maybe?
Biochemistry and molecular biology
Maybe path? Or fundamentals of cell bio!

Isn't HSF a biomed only subject?

If so you're gonna be doing MCB as well in first sem.

Woop woop ill be doing biochem and eng math + comp as well. ^^ though chances at ill take eng math over summer cause a matchless semester during the year will actually make my life.

Looking forward to learning all those steps of glycolysis yo'
(But not really. It'll make me want to neck myself)

@Ballerina: My friend said she found Science and Pseudoscience to be a really wanky breadth with super-biased lecturers :s
@Nicola: Zoology (and German via the DipLang)! (Though the subject choice I have planned also qualifies me for the Ecology & Evolutionary Biology major). So hard to pick majors though, I feel like I'm going to end up taking 20+ Grad Dips of Science ;s

Aren't all breadth subjects wanky? Were the lecturers biased towards or against astrology/acupuncture/voodoo?
