in preparation for calculus

i have two and a half days to nick the calculus paper, ive done quite a bit in the last couple of days, so its been good.

what im surprised is that the finals consist mainly questions from the 6 exams we had through this semester and the questions that are taken from these exams are carbon copy of the ones we took.

i ask, what's the point of having exams then? at least change the figures or the style of question? but then again, it works for me, i can just review the 6 exams and make sure i dont make the same stupid mistake i've made in them.

so that leaves me with just one test and chapter 8 to review. presented with this kind of opportunity, i have to nick it.

my TA was saying there might be a curve of 5 or 6 marks. in that case, i might just need to score anywhere above 70 to get A, but im not going to bank on that. im going for the A, which means a 90.

and since the questions are carbon copy, i dont see how that's difficult at all...
