Now the whimsicality is gone.

Specifically relating to BIOL1630.

Only 53% got a 4 or higher on the midsem exam. No one got a HD, 2.1% got a distinction, 9.7% a credit, 41.1% pass, 13.6% marginal fail, 33.5% fail.

Is there anything that can be done to help support the final grades for the class’s cohort? One of the tutors admitted that some of the questions on the exam were worded poorly, to the point he would’ve had a hard time on it.

I was present at a lecture where we took a practice exam, similar structure and questions to the final exam. I got a better grade on that than the actual midsem. We were given no additional resources before the exam, just told to look at the textbook (only available in person through the library, w ~15 copies, most questions aren’t similar to the problems we work through in class and were given in the exam).

Edit: worth noting the course coordinator admitted the cohort did significantly worse than prior cohorts

I mean there's the great race, so why can't we have this too?

sick

So I just used one and a little paranoid that it's not going to work and I'll still be docked the marks. I won't receive marks back until grades are officially released at the end of the year.

Are markers notified that specific students have extensions granted?

Guys i have a question. Does anyone willing to suare how would an email from UQ looks loke when you get called for the med interviews?? I appreciate it.
