Exactly! I wasn't expecting stellar marks in the first place since I didn't really do well throughout the course, but I was expecting to get a minimum of a C...

I'm going to see the exam anyhow, you're right. Rather try and fail than do nothing at all.

*goes off to email the prof*

(The worst thing is that the prof had told me I could get a 6 if I studied...and I did. Study. I think. Now he'll be laughing his head off when he sees what I got.)

It says "Please note: This is an unofficial degree Audit report".

SO if your mark went down, apparently this is unofficial. Let's hope...

I'm going to email the prof as well.

Its NOT fair. I'll admit I did very poor on the mid-terms. (I had my animal phys midterms 1/2 hour before the physics 1b03 midterms, it was a total nightmare). I was hoping to go into the exam and do well, I studied loads for it. I felt I did enough to at least pass. Guess not.

I have a feeling that iClicker marks may been messed up. They never showed us what we received.

Unfortunately university testing isnt fair. Just gotta write it, get owned, and hope for bellcurve.

Totally agree. It was my last exam in first year as well and Quinn's questions were the cherry on top -__-

bellcurve didn't even happen. I don't think McMaster does bellcurves.

Don't professors just reduce the denominator?

Not really, no.

In 2nd year Protas posted the formula he used to bellcurve the class.
