I will agree with you on the lab guy being a nutjob. That I hear was Sri's fault, for telling them to be pricks this semester (ok, perhaps saying, be hard on them and question them ruthlessly). I'd say they took it on board, far too much. (I had anderson for lab guy)
However the tutor was pretty good (I had jorgen). However I did hear 1 of the (3 or 4 distinct tutors) was a real ass of a person. You probably got him. He ran at the same time as jorgen's fri 12-1 class.
Omar let me see the raw sheet of marks (cause I was enquiring about my mark) and in that, he ended up showing me the line which showed the number of people <50/100.
I was pretty sure it was low-mid 30's. I distinctly remember the number 36. But im hoping my mind didn't drift since then (so low-mid 30's is probably more conservative). So yeah, i guess with the nss figure of 118 enrolled, ~30% (recalculated) failure rate raw seems to be more likely.
Zoodboog, I said 10% failure *after* all the supps and scaling. Cause they did scale massively (i'll talk about this next time I catch you on msn)
Provisional marks were on sturec. Didn't you ever get those irrating global vaguely worded mails from Omar, about marks being up. (One exception, provisonal FINAL EXAM dss marks weren't on sturec, since they were in an excel sheet, and not on the cse marks system.) (However, assignment marks were definitely on sturec)
