THANK YOU. I told the invigilator, but he looked at it and said 'Nope, that makes grammatical sense'. Whaaaaaat.

Well it doesn't, but it's clear enough that you don't actually need the professor or anyone to look at it, so that's probably what he meant.

That's the thing...it could also be interpreted as asking for the difference between a particular stage (inexplicably left out), or just plain Meiosis II and Mitosis.

I suppose it was probably the latter, but it being clearer would've been nice...

Wilson's tests were the worst.
There really isn't any need to further qualify that statement.

LOL, really? I didn't find the questions so bad as much as the level of detail required. For both Kajuira AND Wilson, they're questions really tested whether you've been preparing for this from the start or not...

Well, I'm generally not fond of the biology testing-style. I find that it doesn't really test much beyond how much time an individual is willing to spend memorizing tidbits of information

True that. DEFINITELY true. :/ Plus, 100 questions is insane.
