w8kg6 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 ouch, what did you get for the course then? I dropped from an A to a C+. My OMSAS GPA that year was a 3.1, but I didn't plan on being a doctor yet anyways. Heh, those first two years were awesome, but they're also the reason I've had to apply a few times. After second year, I had a 3.3 OMSAS. I currently have a 3.6 OMSAS, and a 3.8 best 2 years. I don't think I regret it. I made the most of university because of those first two years. They were amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st8ic Posted November 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 (actually, I got drunk while I was in the exam) Most bad-ass thing I've ever heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShootingStar Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Just got a 70% on my Psyc midterm... worth 35% of my final mark. Worst thing is that I thought I aced it too. A little depressed, not gonna lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeman101 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I think I just finished my worst midterm yet. It was hard, but possible. Problem is I completely underestimated it so yea, pwnage. I started writing out impossible math problems and jokes on the paper to amuse the TA marking it. Got my results: 71% on the midterm. The course is 50/50 midterm and final. Dammit! Will probably drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jochi1543 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 wow cant believe how most of you have never gotten a mark below a 50 =S I think it's hard to get below 50% if you are actually putting in serious effort. If you just don't do anything, though, it's a whole different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citan Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I've had a 68 in an Anthrpology midterm a while ago. I had like five exams on the same week! The other four exams went just fine, had above A-. And besides, that midterm had some of the stupidest questions ever put on paper, Hope Psychology will have more reasonable questions...We'll see in two months.

mrhumble Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 wow cant believe how most of you have never gotten a mark below a 50 =S I did. It was on a quiz worth 0.2% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octavius Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 66% (excluding 0s - skipped optionals), after getting a 92% the first midterm...very strange. Overall ended up being 83% =(. Lowest mark 72...organic I, surprise surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatonekid Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Plus their's a **** load of propaganda associated with good marks. Trust me, they're not as important as everyone thinks. What makes you say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thatonekid Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Danie is probably in medicine nowThat's what I originally thought. But based on their post history, I'd say they're not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
future_doc Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Well, just b/c Danie says it is so, it does not make it necessarily so - good marks are a prerequisite for sure (at least, I hope so). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolie121 Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 37% on first year chem mid term #1. Professor was a douche, class average was 42%, 56% with bell curving. I ended up dropping the course before the deadline, retaking it in the summer, and getting a 90 overall with a different professor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ace of Spades Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Just got 78% on my second Structure, Reactivity, and Bonding midterm, worth 25% of the total. Combined with my 81% first midterm, I'll need 100% on the final to get that pesky A+. One B+ won't destroy your GPA. But this would be my third...

deeman101 Posted November 14, 2009 Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 I just went to check my animal development midterm. It was 50/50 MC and short answer. I got 84% MC and 58 short answer . Stupid prof (hesitate to call her that cause I believe shes woefully underqualified to be one) wanted some completely random crap for the short answer. And yes seeing as this course is 50/50 midterm/final I'll have to drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a 76% on a mid sem and the second might come back not much better.
