shame i dont know who you are, else i could be like HI ROUTEMARKER in the exam, but if you see a chick in a 'where's wally' shirt, its me :D

things like that you just know lol and it is the exact same test you did in the exam period. Duffy is very easy going i failed higher chem and he gave me a pass in fundamentals so i was fine with that, better than an overall fail.

Drop down he just gave me that pass, aslo same for Math 1a failed that and asked for a pass in general maths. Very screwed up session it was.

hmm im uneasy about the multiple choice, most of the calculations panned out ok, others were just educational guesses.

I liked the last short answer question, basically all based on opinion. I think i screwed up that inference question, i just basically infered that temperature affects the height of the plant in proportion to its normal height ranges. After i left it just hit me that maybe i needed to try to determine the genotypes of the plants.

oh well its all over, now to relax and watch the stack of csi/cold case eps i have lying around.

can someone tell me what's the difference between advanced genetics and genetics? What have you heard from people? Is the assessment/exam harder? i understand both are doing the same lecture stuff, but one extra hour of lab, and that's all i know. Thanks!

not sure how much the adv component is worth it, they do get a seperate exam and instead of a genetcs talk they must hand in a scientific report on the drosophilla crosses practical.

three hours of genetics lab is a ton, one more would be overkill!

Most of the time our labs finished early anyhoo.

The talk wasn't that bad; and reports aren't bad either..
