Yeah, I went. He just went over a few logarithm and exponential questions, and gave us a small lecture on how we should be well rested before the exam. :p

Haha, yeah, Jonah's a good TA but can get a bit confusing sometimes :p

Yeah, the good thing is that there are 5 exp/log questions...so just make sure you get the other questions right :p

Also,

According to this:

http://registrar.mcmaster.ca /calen...05/sec_118.htm

A 12 is a 90%-100%. So technically, if you get 90% on the exam, you'll have a 12 in the course.

LOL, oh, I know,
fear not.
I totally did all my research and math.
each question is worth 4 marks and there are 30
so 30 x 4 = 120
but he's marking it out of 100
so 20 / 4 = 5 BONUS MARKSS free markss lol

we can get 7 wrong and still get a 12, cuz it'd still be a 92.
that's what I'm hoping for right there.

Yup, that's awesome. I kind of feel sorry for the people that have 100 already in the course. :p I heard he does the same thing for Math 1M03, which is why I'm taking him again next term

Not to scare you guys, but 1K03 with Moore was a joke compared to 1M03 with Moore. A lot of people with 12s in 1K03 ended up with 3s to 6s in 1M03.

Just make sure you guys step it up in 1M03. Me and a lot of my friends learned the hard way. :p

Good luck with your 1K03 exam!
