Oh yeah. Exams are over. And I had incredibly luck, in that my glasses broke the morning of my exam, the day after I'd had the new glasses I'd ordered a month and a half earlier at Easter arrive. The exam was pretty nice, I enjoyed it a lot better than I'd thought. Rest of Wednesday was spent in Aikman's, with Owain, James and James's girl. Oh, and ( Read more... )

Right. Overall, under-revised for this exam [Functional Analysis]. And under-worked. But it's another class, I think my 4th of the year where I had 100% attendance to lectures. So some of it appeared to sink in, and the sample past paper shows I seem to have enough to pass it comfortably. Hopefully. If it stays in my head. Fingers crossed. Touch ( Read more... )

Well, Functional Analysis isn't really being revised too well. On the plus side ... well, things are pretty decent. I met up with Paul from class to have a decent chat and see him for the last time before he goes off into a wave of finishing uni into the scary real world. I'm going to miss him - we've got senses of humour which really work off one ( Read more... )

Well, Yesterday's exam ended up being not nearly as bad as I thought it'd be. Which was awful ( Read more... )

Well, Symbolic was fairly straightforward, and is quite possibly the easiest honours exam I've ever taken. Admittedly, the project will inevitably drag my grade down, but it should still be tolerable. Lie Algebras, this morning, on the other hand, is absolutely horrible. I don't know if I've felt this bad about an exam since Linear Maths. It's ( Read more... )

Right. So, this is it. In the next 52 and a half hours or thereabouts, I have three honours exam, which will determine 46.5 credits worth of grades, which should be 17.547...% of the credits that go towards my final honours grades, or thereabouts. I slightly wish I'd not done that calculation, to be honest ( Read more... )

Right. Hyperbolic Geometry was relatively easy - there was only one question that wasn't just a modification of a tutorial sheet or past paper question. Well, there were two, but the first was a relatively simple bit of algebra and equation solving, with the proviso that you had to have problem solving skills. Although that's more or less a given ( Read more... )

Right. An hour to Hyperbolic. And, well, I think I'm half OK. Except for the fact that I don't understand half the course, the one past paper out of three I did best at was the one I have no solutions for and thus couldn't check, and, on a brilliant occasion, managed to utterly misdo a question by misreading. On the whole, though, ignoring the ( Read more... )

Right, Graph is sort of OK. Now to completely do all of Hyperbolic Geometry over the weekend. This should be interesting. I've made a start on it, but the exam is in 56 hours... and I must sleep ( Read more... )

Right. Project handed in on Monday. Would've been better if I'd actually come up with an aim for the project before handing it in, or deleted the sarcastic comments and awful pun, or put in the procedure for putting in diagrams, which, y'know, might have helped my geometry project, which I worked out the basic idea not too long before hand-in ( Read more... )
