Exactly the same schedule smile

Looked briefly at the tutorial letters again last night and will start studying in earnest probably only on Friday. Got some commitments the next 2 nights.

Are you on leave? What time do you start stuyding if you study in the morning?

yeah, also cant make the studies in the evening until friday, so thats why i tried to make an effort from 5-7 for the today and tomorrow.
more to relieve the panick of not getting through all the work on time. the required chapters are a lot of work.
man i feel like a gautenger who has to wake up at 5 for traffic hehehe

Just remembered we have our monthly software release this Friday night, so I guess I will kick off on Saturday.

I read a fair amount already in December, but wont know how much I remember until I get down to serious studying. Also have to balance the next 11 or so days between this and INF425.
For now guessing a 50/50 split.

Guess it wasn't all that bad, although I didn't enjoy writing it or studying for it.
But at least that's another one down, and just one more for the year.

You guys?

feel the same
went much better than expected.
glad they didnt ask stuff that was never asked before, and the questions covered almost all the chapters
this subject could get really nasty if e.g. you have to do like a 30 point essay on security or they asked some of the lesser known stuff that one would scan over like singularity/seperability etc (p532)

stressing big time for INF425 on Friday, you?

I though 431 was good - by far the easiest one I did this year (exam wise).

They also asked mostly everything I thought would be asked, given that we only have 100 marks to work with.
