In uni most of my Accounting subjects are weighted 30/70 (30% in semester assignments, 70% exam, also exam is a hurdle, so if you fail exam and have a Pass mark overall you will get dragged down to a fail mark.)
lol these subs have rather high fail rates, probably one of the higher ones out of the Commerce subs at The University of Melbourne.
yeah a fair bit different than up in Canada.
Psshh, Nah I'm just smart :D Smashed straight HD's last year :P
but then again if you go back a couple of years, 99.00 from Melbourne Grammar is like an average score. well the median was 89.something in my year but still, it wasn't anywhere near the top end.
subjects are pretty easy, it really depends in yourself, I did really super easy subjects and managed 99 because I was suited to them. Work hard, and attempt to look back at the end of the year and think "Yep, I tried my level best."
