Hai~.. I'm so not cut out for blind memorisation... Wat's the point? In the working world, you don't need to memorise all these facts, they're there for you, in books, references and databases... And not giving us examples of how the questions will be like is even worse... True/false questions for CAs, application questions for tutorials... Then why bring up regurgitation essay questions for finals??
I'd much prefer it if they have applications questions with open book... with so many facts to memorise, it was evident everyone was struggling to memorise everything before the paper... does it really help when you go work? Would your employers actually be impressed that you can state the 10 side effects of so-and-so drug? Or would your problem solving skills come in more handy?
As I sat there waiting for time to end, I kept questioning myself... if this is what biomed has to offer... do I really want to keep on doing this?? Guess we'll have to wait and see how I perform for my biology mods... Hai~...
3 down... 2 to go... the brain drain continues...
