    Re: Holy Shit I considered it pretty easy, except the fact of forgetting the biomaterials used in artificial valves. ><'

    Did anyone do shit in school assesments?

    I did okay in rankings & assessment marks for all my subjects.... except maths. It's always been my weakest. :)

    Study guides - are they really THAT helpful?

    They helped me in some way, but only from the practice/sample questions they provided. ..though that accounted for very little - eg. Biology topics. If you're a talented student (not saying that I am anyhow), you should have no need to buy them.

    Section IV - Historical Periods

    I was worried for this section as the topics are so extensive. I did New Kingdom Egypt to the death of Thutmose IV. I'm glad the questions were very common-like, & required just basic knowledge of the topic to apply it to the question. :) I'm happy with my response.

    General Thoughts - Ancient History

    I was stumped at the first look of that question. I had not done much study on Lycurgus, but it soon came to me & I basically talked about basically... everything, as it was so extensive & linked to many things of how the social structure & state as a whole worked, etc.. I hope my answer turned...

    Section III - Personalities

    I did Hatshepsut - the questions were pretty good, but I re-mentioned a HEAP on both questions, as both had a majority part of each. I did however forget a few minor things in the first question, such as her title of God's Wife of Amun. Crap. :(

    Section I - Core (Pompeii and Herculaneum)

    I think it did say archaeologists &/or specialists - besides, my teacher said that it was possible to talk about almost everything & anyone involved in it's conservation/restoration/reconstruction, etc. I talked about them all, so it's bound to score most of the marks, so I hope! I'm really...

    Ancient History exam too long?

    I finished my last word within the last two or three minutes. I did pretty well I'd say. I spent ~35 minutes on Societies, ~35 on the Core, which gave me about an extra 10-20ish minutes to divide on my Personality & Period - the two which I wrote mostly more than enough on. I was pretty...

    Will i get a mark?

    I'd say you wouldn't - but that's what I'd say if I was a marker for your paper. ;\

    The pompeii short answer questions

    I third that, haha. I really don't see the point of the first three marks of the P+H.

    Leaving early - how do you DO it?!

    Even my friend who was ranked #1 in the class said she finished ~20-30 minutes prior to finishing - & this is coming from a 90%+ scorer in exams! She was even surprised herself, with many many booklets - I was amazed how she did it! I managed to last until the last minute with all mine, & made...
