SNU Final Exams PART 1

1. Introduction to Surface/Interface Chemistry
Exam: It was really a straightforward exam. The answer will be either you know very well or you do not know at all. This is due to a very diverse nature of the class composition. Some of us are from Mechanical Engineering departments, some from Forest Science, of course, some from Chemistry department, the 'appropriate' department for this course.
Result: Just announced this morning. 49/71. The top two scorers have points of 56 and 53. So, I guess I am not THAT bad.

2. Organometallic Chemistry PART 1
Exam: The first part of the exam which is last Monday was quite okay. The questions were not as hard as I imagined. Well, PART 2 of the exam will start in another half an hour. Wish me luck.
Result: I don't think the result will be released by the lecturer. =.="

3. Introduction to Nuclear Fusion
Exam: Alright, first of all, I have to mention that this course is actually designed for Year 3 Physics or Nuclear Engineering students. My lecturer was really shocked when he saw the student list for the first time finding a Chemistry student in his class. The math covered in this course was totally mind-blowing, but thanks to that, now I could construct my own fusion reactors in my home (at least theoretically, because you can't purchase any superconducting coil from eBay or Amazon).
Result: Last midterm, I got 70% results with the class average, 71%. So, for the finals, I could confidently answer all 7 questions but one. So, I predicts that my score will fall around 70-80% range too. Well, I am not aiming for a full-mark here, seriously. There is no way a Chemist could beat Nuclear Engineers in a Nuclear Engineering exams. XD

OK. I will post more about my exams! (And of course, I will write something about my course here. Some are really emo and some are really fun and surprising.)
