Steve, the professor for my genetics course, is the devil.
I’d just like to express my frustration at the quiz that he set for us this past Thursday. I studied my ass off for this test. I was prepared. I was psyched.
I took one look at that test, and I was screwed. God! How could I have been so off mark with the study material? I knew none of this stuff, or very little. The more I scanned the pages of the test, the more I thought to myself ‘oh man, i’ve studied the wrong units for this.’ I left the exam after about 25 minutes, drenched in the scent of failure.
But to my surprise, I wasn’t the only one who felt this way . The others agreed - the content of the quiz was discontinuous with the content in class. It was clear after the test that we should have focussed on the minutiae; silly us, studying the ‘bigger picture’ things like gene regulation and the consequences of errors in regulation. No, that stuff is clinically relevant – it has no place in Biomedical science. All of this for 10%!?
Steve, why do you hate us?
Adrian.
