Therz too much to study and revise before exams..i.e 2 times as much as semesterwise exams..many of us forgot whatever we have learnt in the first semester, and it takes som time to actually go through all of the first part once more and in addition to study wat we did in semester2 also.. Som modules are pretty bulky(e.g system software) and seems kind of impossible to revise all the chapters just b4 exams.. At the end of the first semester we are very relax but as the end of 2nd semester approaches we get twice the amount of stress..without forgetting that we hav lots of tests and assignments to submit..we dnt hav much time to concentrate on revisions.. Concerning the exams paper, it consists of 2 parts which are usually not really related, for instance the module CSE2004Y which consist of PL and Algo..i dnt see any link between the 2.. so why do them on the same paper??!! I wish we cud go back to the old system of semesterwise exams.. if DCDM and UTM are still doing it, y can’t we?? We UoM students, we r being penalized unfairly with those yearly exams.. and its tough to improve one’s CPA with yearly exams!
