I know i'll sound incredibly stupid in writing this. But I just want to clarify, that in the exam there will be absolutely NO questions which require a written paragraph but they are entirely ALL questions which utilize multiple choice answer sheets (A-D or A-Z) ? ? ?

I don't want to go into the exam and be caught by surprise by anything.

There are none El :) I'm not sure what to think about that..
I kind of like just regurgitating information, that's what I'm best at  :o
I wouldn't say I'm the best thinker in the world!

I studied much more for this mid-sem and ended up with the same mark I got for the 1st one  :(  Gah!

Pink, I have trouble with that too! Except that when I don't know the answer to a question, I leave it straight away and continue with the rest of the paper. Then once I've answered all the questions I do know, there's less than 10 minutes left and I don't have time to work through the ones I left as thoroughly as I would like to! asdfghjkl.

That happens to me too! And sometimes I skip the questions, do the easy ones fast and come back to the hard ones. But then I'm so careless I end up losing marks are the easy ones!!  >:(

But I think we did well overall guys The average improved from last sem!

BelVP, looking at the range of marks, a pass is really good!

Hahah yeah x) Was worried I'd failed since I was terribly anemic that week and had some personal problems (partner is hospital). Did about average though.

I know the tiredness that comes with anemia!! I had it for a year!
Iron tablets fixed me up quickly though!

Hope you feel better soon :) sorry to hear about your partner :(

Ugh, also a sufferer of anaemia at one stage in my life- fainted one time, yeah that wasn't fun. But yeah as turtle said, definitely recommend iron tablets as the most practical treatment.

For anyone doing Research Based Phys (PHYS20009), I wonder when we will get our marks back for the Thermoreg report?
It says that the post date is tomorrow, so perhaps we might get them back then?

If you're not a massive meat eater, maybe try some other iron-enriched foods :)
I know weet bix has 25% of your daily iron intake and there's also iron-enriched soy milk. Together they can give up to 50% of your daily intake.
