So, i went into my last exam of the year for my Psychology Research Methods class. I was relatively confident I would get a 80% or so on the exam. So I go to class, with mild test anxiety as usual, and the multiple choice exams get passed out. I start taking the test and realize that every correct answer on the exam is in BOLD, wow, i thought to myself. I checked out subsequent pages.... BOLD, BOLD, BOLD. Then someone had to open their mouth about it...  The professor said he cant just give everyone A's, so we will now get a shortened version of this exam emailed to us, and for it to be returned friday. Easy 100% regardless. Thanks for the fail prof. fail boat.

My finals/juries are next week. Fun, fun, fun...

Otherwise I think he is not doing you any favours.

I did not say a damn word it gave me an A instead of a B in the class and when i relay on financial aid and scholarships i'll take that mess up |

I'm all prepared for my exams. | arrogant bastard comes in 750s? thanks, i had no idea. only had it once in san diego, where i think its made (not sure), but always thought itd be next to the beer, even though its 12% or so. no wonder ive never been able to find it around here. ive been looking in the wrong place.
as for the topic, thats pretty awesome. i wonder if he copied the master version or something. any test that is 100% multiple choice is great, provided it doesnt have that "none of the above" bs. it removes all that doubt. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
