Where would we be without useless notes..?<BR/><BR/>I found that if I tried to copy someone's useless notes, I generally got more confused, and the person who's notes I was copying would have to go back and explain what they meant by the notes in the first place and hence entirely re-teach the lecture, which is what confused me, see..?<BR/><BR/>Hey, I didn't realise that marks were so important until about 3rd year of university. Why the hell do they give out CP's anyway?<BR/><BR/>Keep the roll going - GTH: Music Road tripping to Brisbane and going a bit 'Wolf Creek meets Tom Green' about it when discovering that the assumed 'dead kangaroo' turned out to be a dead emu, getting involved in the art and contemplating the idea of snacking on the biggest drumstick ever!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4696126386168661766.post-6994126529136578062008-10-22T19:53:00.000-07:002008-10-22T19:53:00.000-07:00Brocky - That's very interesting ... *makes note i...Brocky - That's very interesting ... *makes note in Little Book of Blackmail*<BR/><BR/>Squib - You could see that he meant well, and it was utterly true, but still ... way to teach!<BR/><BR/>I would say that your behaviour may have been the reason for the credit in the first place ...franzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02400212989359954521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4696126386168661766.post-20624754553628689432008-10-22T17:59:00.000-07:002008-10-22T17:59:00.000-07:00"Because students like Anna and Craig could really..."Because students like Anna and Craig could really help students like Molly and Andy and Franzy."<BR/><BR/>lol! ouch<BR/><BR/>I got a credit once and I was so enraged I went to the Appeals Committee and jumped up and down like a complete twitAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4696126386168661766.post-49574212078459049162008-10-22T15:42:00.000-07:002008-10-22T15:42:00.000-07:00At uni we had one lecturer mark 50 pages * 100 stu...At uni we had one lecturer mark 50 pages * 100 students worth of prac reports per semester.
