Failed attempt at sarcasm...

[offtopic] Not that there's much activity from us at the moment, but for those of you that don't know - once you hit 50 posts in your total post count, there's a chatbox which appears at the bottom of every page when you visit the forums... Just watch out for Frootloop, he's crazy. :ninja: [/offtopic]

[OFFTOPIC]I'll take that as a compliment [/OFFTOPIC]

yaaaay, lots of Commerce, Tower and Human Nutrition for me. I don't know how serious you guys are being, but is stream jumping really a big deal any more? it seems like it's pretty much reached equilibrium with people shifting classes (cheeky chem reference there) so I just go to whichever ones suit rather than going to and from my hall all day... particularly useful for those mornings when 8am chemistry just isn't an option...

 

[frootloop]

Lol Paddaball, I don't think anyone cares about stream jumping any more, pretty much none of the lectures are full anyway. (As opposed to module one, where you were bashing people over getting a seat )

 

[Cathay]

I *think* people just go early to whatever lecture they want to be at, and if people are late and can't get a seat they just walk off quietly...

 

[Ben]

Does anyone happen to have a practice/previous years HUBS191 terms 2 test? On the odd chance that there was a chem-like event where some/a theater was able to take their question scripts away...

Given how HUBS apparently reuses their questions, it's very unlikely that anyone would have a copy of the real paper. However, if anyone has any practice questions or practice tests they want to share (perhaps by adding them to the question bank thread like GG did with his endocrine questions), it would be much appreciated.

Also, CHEM released their question script over Blackboard later, lol.

 

[frootloop]

I doubt it, as Cathay says, they have a 'bank' of questions, and so wont release them (for obvious reasons). I wish though....
[OFFTOPIC]Soo many people post questions on peerwise with answers that are either half right, or blatantly wrong. Ignorance, or throwing people off?[/OFFTOPIC]

 

[Ben]

Sigh, assuming that it was unintentional for the people to leave with the question sheets, I was just making an example where students were able to get away with taking question sheets away - not suggesting that CHEM and HUBS administer their tests in a similar fashion.

And guys, don't worry - I understand that there is a question bank/less flexibility in the questions produced by HUBS, compared to PHYS and CHEM; see "On the odd chance".

 

[frootloop]

Calm down Ben, just making sure
lol, I just had a look at where I messed up in the chem exam. Apparently I thought living cells can be at equilibrium....
[OFFTOPIC]Apologies to Ben, who doesn't want to be seen as 'raging' [/OFFTOPIC]

Wheres everyone up to in revision for finals?

Wheres everyone up to in revision for finals?

Winning, epically nailed everything, going to get 100% in every paper. [OFFTOPIC]Not lol I wish. Everyone studies different things differently, kind of a redundant question.[/OFFTOPIC]
By the way, who else enjoyed Frank Griffin's surprise at the 'planking' episode in 4pm CELS?

 

[Bamboozle]

I think once this hubs test is over, i'm gonna realise i'm really behind in revision for finals

 

[frootloop]

You'll be fine Finals are three weeks away, and that may not sound like much, but remember that CHEM and PHSI finish early, which gives you a little extra time to revise (The lectures for those two subjects are 'revision lectures' (ie; tutorials) for the last week or so). A little (or a lot ) of hard work, and you'll be fine.
[OFFTOPIC]Just don't get upto 50 posts on MSO, or you'll be introduced to the biggest procrastination device ever invented: MSO chatbox[/OFFTOPIC]

HAH!
He was freaked out as soon as he saw those people walked in.
Oh my. . .
I thought they were gonna abuse him, which later followed by a. . what the. -disappointed-
Rather enjoyed it though

Yeah, it was funny at the time but a bit of a let down.. Planking, I can't believe so many people are stupid enough to do it.

 

[frootloop]

Planking, I can't believe so many people are stupid enough to do it.

Agreed, how did a game where you just lie face down get so popular?

 

[Ben]

Exactly, I mean, if you want to make an impression on an area do something creative - don't just lie there.
