NM paper was fine. 20marks worth of MCQs which most pple would have scored near full marks with considerable studying on their part.
and 80 marks worth (40 each) of a news release and a news story. which really depended on how well you could write even before taking the module. after all, at this age, one's command of English is more or less already fixed at a certain level.
had 1.5 hrs to study b4 the ChemOcean paper, but din feel like it, despite not being v well-acquainted with the notes. so i went for a swim instead.
the paper was quite a breeze, unexpectedly, given the amt of effort i put in (nvr go lecs, tuts, no TB, no mindmaps, pure staring at notes).
only had abit of doubt regarding bioremediation, primary productivity and upwelling, after which i discovered i had got more than half the points for those questions anyway.
only 2 v short qns (worth 2 marks only) i was totally unsure of, given the fact that i hadn't touched the TB b4, knowing the lecturer's style. actually i figure the main reason i go for consultations is to suss out the lecturer and his style of marking and setting tests/exams.
so far i've proven to be quite adept at this v unorthodox method of doing well with minimum effort.
so i decided to have some fun with the 2 qns.
1. what are the huge amts of lithogenous sediments left behind when seawater evaporates in a specific area at a tremendous rate? (or smth like that) ans: salt mountains (confirm wrong one)
2. what are the appendages that mid/deep ocean fishes use to light up their passage called? ans: torchlights
left after 1 hr (minimum required staying time), after checking thru the paper twice. really despise pple who leave early for their last paper, as they could utilise the additional time to redo or check their answers, but for this case i really felt i could do no better.
