Psych 1xx3 final -- PANIC ATTACK!! - Page 4 - MacInsiders - Student-run McMaster University Help Forum

I was panicking about the exam last night. Turned out it was rather easy. Most questions only had 3 choices, and there weren't any 'trick' questions. Overall, I felt it was a pretty fair exam.

I didn't even use my cheat sheet.

By any chance, were we supposed to bubble in our tutorial section number on the scantron? I know I bubbled in my student number and version number as usual, but I wasn't sure whether we were supposed to bubble in the tutorial section number in order to get the "extra bonus" mark at the end.

In regards to my earlier post. Many of my peers relied too much on their cheat sheets for answers. Then spend too much time searching through their cheat sheet for answers. So much time was spent that they didn't finish the test. Does that make sense?

Maybe it worked for other people...but for my friends, it screwed them over. Might as well not have had a cheat sheet at all.

I used my cheat sheet, but only about...5% was actually useful. 10% at a stretch.

The rest was all...not...but I'm still glad we had it. I agree with the ineffecient preparation thing, if you had to look through your cheat sheet for answers, that means you probably just tried to cram everything in rather than study it and write down what you're likely to forget.

Btw, macinsiders homepage isn't working for me. :/

The invigilator never told us to bubble in our tutorial number but on the first page if u read the instructions it said that you needed to bubble in the tutorial section so I did just in case. I'm not sure if it will affect the bonus mark but considering it was written in the instructions i think it might.
