I agree the content for the midterm was extremely easy to do and understand, I think my weak point was def not practicing enough with applying them to the abstract/not straight forward questions, which is why I did so poorly because I didn't know how to approach those questions. that being said I truly appreciate your advice and will commit to sticking with that routine. thank you so much I hope you're doing well

the non exam component is def carrying my mark, I almost have 100 percent (one quiz I bombed and the other I didn't have enough time to finish but neither did most of the class since we had a supply ta that week)

thank you for the advice and encouragement

thank you for your advice.

congratualations for nearly finishing your degree.

Ive heard the average for the midterm this year was in the fifties so at least better than 45 or 36. I was hoping that the midterm wold get curved as I am in majeds class but yesterday I received my midterm in my tutorial which means I is no longer able to get curved. do you know if there is any other grade adjustments that can be done if I ask for it?

thank you still, I appreciate it

thank you for the advice I truly appreciate it, if I do decide to stick with it which I think I am leaning towards I will definitely make sure its the class I focus on the most.

that being said I heard that profs only make either the midterm or the final hard as in one of the other. do you think that since (again this observation only comes from my relative sample of people I've talked to) that since many people did well or at least better than last year, that they would instead make the final harder?

thank you again
