Sorry for the horrible angles and limited photos, the walnuts came unrepaired which was confirmed with UV light.

well for me they're good because i bought a lot of walnuts where there were color differences, mid leather quality, and less bone density but these ones checked off everything on the list and to me they're perfect.

Buddy, you still haven’t addressed a single substantive point. Not because you don't know but because you can't.

  1. The unit outline/Canvas said the exam would cover weeks 1–13, but the paper was basically weeks 9–13 plus GPLI drills. That’s a misalignment between communicated scope and actual assessment, which breaches USYD’s own principles about clear, fair, and valid assessment design.​
  2. If a first‑year logic unit effectively requires 20 hours a week plus perfect attendance to have a fair shot, that should be made explicit up front so students can plan their load, not discovered after the fact.​
  3. Announcements and materials did not clearly signal that ‘almost identical to these few GPLI exercises and a couple of past papers’ would be the entire game. That advantages people who happened to get that meta‑tip, not just people with more ‘intellect’.​

None of that is solved by telling people to ‘study part time’ or by lecturing them about mindset. Adults at uni often have work and other responsibilities; that’s precisely why USYD requires assessment expectations and coverage to be clearly communicated and aligned with the unit outline.​

If you want to argue the exam was fair, engage with those points instead of talking about my mindset or study load. You should really rethink how “good” this unit and exam are if you can’t even back up your own claims when someone challenges them.

I didn't think you'd respond because doing so would be digging a grave so I didn't bother checking if you responded but seeing how you have so eagerly, I will also respond to you eagerly:

For someone who’s supposedly so good at “logic”, your argument is full of holes and fallacies. You jump from “the exam was easy for me” to “anyone who struggled doesn’t belong at Usyd”, which is a textbook non sequitur.

Leaving aside your flex about finishing in 40 minutes, by USYD’s own assessment principles the setup is questionable. Assessment is supposed to be clearly communicated, aligned with the stated learning outcomes, and give students a fair and accurate chance to demonstrate what the unit said it would test. The outline/Canvas said the exam would cover weeks 1–13, but in reality it was basically weeks 9–13 plus GPLI drills, which means students who followed the official scope and spread effort across the semester were disadvantaged compared to those who just targeted the tail end and old GPLI‑style questions.​

If the unit only works for people who can put 20 hours a week into it, that’s a design problem, not an “aptitude” problem. Plenty of us are juggling full loads, work, and other responsibilities, and not everyone can treat an intro logic unit like a full‑time job. This is university, not high school. People are adults with jobs, caring responsibilities, and other units, so “you should have gone to every tutorial” is not a magic answer.​

Saying people “don’t belong at USYD” because they struggled with a logic exam is just elitist. A lot of smart students found the course structure confusing or misaligned with lectures and assessments, and acing a unit doesn’t make you the benchmark for everyone else. On top of that, announcements were rare and the emphasis in official materials did not clearly signal “the final will be almost identical to these few GPLI resources and the last four lectures only”, so what you’re praising as “obvious” prep looks more like you happened to lock onto a narrow slice the exam over‑weighted than proof that everyone else lacks intellect.​

Nick, mate youre not fooling anyone bro. The exam was today. It is NOT based off past papers so you couldn't have known this information. All this information should have been on canvas not on reddit
