i think ashiteru is getting a bit carried away with it all

look at ur email, it says its the same format as declared in week 14 lecture slides.

2b finals was hard enough i dont see how they could make it that much harder if any harder at all.

relax ashiteru
9 days
week 7 and 13 is easy shit
week 6 bit harder
week 8, 9 and 10 extremely hard
week 11 is more or less remembering the journal entries for equity method
week 12 is hard


main thing from what my convo to dianne a while back is that she emphaised that we study the tut questions more than past papers coz last yr's course was taught differently, not to mention diff content. Dianne also specified that she took the same format as some tut questions she set and dianne sets the minority interest question, so yeah thats a good indication.
Well I read that part of the email... but a few of my friends said its gonna be extremeli harder than the finals.. anyway, thanx for the analysis of which week is easy to hard.. haha...

Good luck~! and see u there... Thank god for giving me this 2nd chance..

1- tats highly confidential, they'd never release it

2- why does it matter how many ppl do the supp? if u got the supp be happy coz this is a 2nd chance at life, if u didn't get it in all probability u passed.

So they usually dont give special consideration to ppl who passed?

if you pass, then its likely that they dont grant you a supp
if your reasons were too shit, its also likely they dont grant u a supp
if your attendance and performance in other assesment indicates u to be a long term slacker then its unlikely u get a supp
if you chronically use the system and have recurring 'headaches' everytime you get a finals exam, ur unlikely to get a supp


otherwise u are likely to get a supp if u applied


nah working @ global markets in their premium banking service section, contract job till uni starts

i aren't gonna be welcomed back if i fail accounting

i think if u get failed without a mark its deemed as a UF
which in this 2b context means:
- u prob got over 50 aggregate
- but didnt' achieve the 50% needed in teh finals

i know a guy who got through on 48% in finals
but as you can see his quite close to the mark.

if u failed, it really doesn't matter if they give u a mark does it?

i don't think u can do anything. but u should try anyway, make a heartfelt appeal and perhaps they'll let u a "late entrance" to the supp
