Arrow Semester 2 fans

Hey y'all -- anyone know the structure of our 1st round o' exams? ie, how many questions, etc

For Physio, Dr J said it would be 60-75 Q's
For Neuro, I'm assuming it's 50 Q's
For Biochem, I recall a # like 50 -- but how many are Dr N and how many are Dr V?

Mucho gracias!

tests

Dr J thinks it's better to have more questions (debatable) so he has as many as he can add before the deadline up to 75.

All of the Neuro and Biochem exams last semester were 50 questions.

Dr. V and N always told us how many questions from each prof the week before the test. If not, I would guess that it's based on the % of classes taught by each.

thanx for the quick reply -- Dr N/V (pardon the unintended joke) may have said, but i didn't hear... so if anyone knows...

just wanna focus on the material as to be tested -- if Dr V only has 6-1o Q's -- obviously, I will put more of my final study time into Dr N's stuff.

thanks again -- good luck on round 1 Jeep!

re

hey Godchosenone, stop complaing that the exams are too easy! Your remarks probably got us screwed with Dr. P last semester It gives us more time to study kaplan, First Aid and High Yield info when exams are easy. The nuero exam was doable, i got a B without the curve, but it was def a curveball from what i was expecting. BTW....please dont be at Dr. J's office crying that the exam was too easy.....thanks alot, thats all i ask for.

Of course I wont be complaning, I am a very good student, it
does not affect me either way.
But hey, I guess it would be interesting to see how many students just memorise answers
then fail the final and maybe the class itself like what happened to
so many people in Dr P's classes last semester.
