I hate waiting for exam results to come back, it's worse than doing the exam, mabey I should have studied harder.

Has the left foot returned yet?

No. I now have two right feet.

Congrats to all you people that finished your exams and assignments. And heck it must be good to be finished with your entire degree, PT!

I had 3 exams this semester, engineering drawing didn't have one. So I had exams on monday, wednesday and friday this week, finished my last one this morning!
I studied my arse off for this morning's exam, engineering mechanics 2, and it paid off, I think

Can't wait for the results...

I'm soooo glad engineering doesn't have any long essays you have to write, I think they were worse than the exams when I was doing my 1/2 BA.

Now to have another Guinness...

Good on ya Erik... Finished just in time to enjoy the good weather over the weekend too

What year of your degree were you doing?

This is the end of my first year. I'm 23, but kinda stuffed around a bit and did half a BA in sociology and psychology before starting engineering.
I think I've made the right choice to study engineering though, it suits me way better than psych/sociology.

Mechatronics must be pretty interesting?

dunno yet erik.. This coming year will be the first of my specialisation, and even then it is no different from the standard mechanical degree. After the middle of the third year the two degrees start to differ in the prescribed papers. Of course there are chances for elective papers to be taken over the course of the degree, but I am nto sure what those will be yet. I have to find out if I am approved for the course, pick a timetable and elective papers and get that signed off by the course supervisor. That should all be happening around christmas time, as results for the second semester are supposed to come out on the 20th of December.

wooooooo finished...

**Milky** · 30th November 2004, 18:45

Finally got all my grades back...
I was happy with the first results that I got: A in Materials science, A in Computer science, A+ in Electrical engineering. Bit disappointed with the final mark, a B+ in Enginering design. I had a run of A's through the first semester and up until this last result came out too

Still, it will be enough (7.62GPA) to get me into the mechatronics department for next year

and that is what matters

And you passed your WoF today! Bet you were sweating on that one - lucky the inspector took pity on you and turned a blind eye to your sad lack of preparation.

What percentage do you need to get a A in your department?
Good work none the less!

I'm still waiting for mine

But I am well prepared for the WoF!

**Milky** · 30th November 2004, 19:31

I really dont know for certain... The only percentage I know of is the engineering design paper - fully internally assessed - 81% got me a B+. For the rest of the papers, I have absolutely no idea as they do not release the marks that you get in the final exams. I guess that overall:

70-75 = B-
75-80 = B
80-85 = B+
85-90 = A-
90-95 = A
95-100 = A+

There may be some changes between departments, but I dont know if it is based on a 6th form certificate system (only a certain number of each grade) or pure percentge based grades :spudwhat:

I'm still waiting for my results from An Introduction to Social Research.

**James Deuce** · 2nd December 2004, 16:18

Bloody brilliant!!

That is an awsome effort especially with that workload and all the drinking and stuff.
