Wow. What an exam.
SOOO MANY RESEARCH EXPERIMENT QUESTIONS!

I still maintain that i got 100%, though.

The question on a criticism of Reitrieval failure theory was a little bit of a surprise, as was describing retention in observational learning.

The method of loci SA question was easy and predictable.

Overall, i thought it was pretty hard; A+ cutoff should be pretty low, as this exam should trip up alot of noobs.

Then stuffed up research methods question

= 39-42 study score.
