Exam update

CS251
I studied my ass off for this course, and I think it paid off. The exam was one of those exams where nothing makes sense the first time you read it, but after you do some managable questions, you start to figure out. I think I did pretty well considering how little of the material I understood before I started studying. My prediciton will be:
Midterm ~ 92/100 = 27.6% of mark
+Assignments ~ 5% of mark
+Final ~ 75-85/100 = 45-51% of mark
=~ 77.6-83.6%

I really thought I could write this exam in my sleep, but it was brutal. I did fine on all the practice exams and understood everything at the review session like the back of my hand. There was a lot of obscure stuff from the first half of the course, and some overall terrible questions on graph theory. I can't make much of a prediction since there are two marking schemes, and I'm pretty sure they'll have to adjust the mark for the final. Overall I think 75%-80% is a realistic guess for a final mark.

Oh man, I really lucked out on this exam. I didn't understand most of the material before the review session, and disregarded studying for this exam, but the exam was really eay, and I think I may have understood some stuff as I was writing it down. I no longer fear not passing this course. My prediction is:
Assignments = 14.3% of mark
+Midterm = 23% of mark
+Final ~ 80-85% = 40-42.5% of mark
=77.3-79.8%

I just hope I don't get my hopes too high for the next two exams. I gotta walk in prepared for the worst. I've got all day tomorrow to do laundry and study, and then just two partial days to cram.
