Exam time and information

Posted by Richard Buckland Wednesday 20 November 2024, 06:19:13 PM.

To all those who came to the exam revision session last night or participated online - I hope you found it helpful and you had your queries answered.

To those who weren't there:

• Exam starts at 2pm.
• 6441 and 3040 students: Finishes at 5pm.
• 6841 students: Parts A and B finish at 5pm, Part C finishes at 6pm.
• We'll post a summary of the exam and exam instructions, likely on Sunday. Do check it out to familiarise yourself with the exam rules and the nature of the questions (this will hopefully relax you).
• You must use a text editor to edit the exam file and insert your answers. You cannot use Word or any editor which saves formatting.
  • For law students do ask if you are not sure about text editors. On Windows you can use NOTEPAD, on MACS you can use the TextEdit app.
• There will be a question which assumes you have seen Dr Strangelove

Review Session Times

Posted by Kristian Mansfield Tuesday 19 November 2024, 10:21:27 AM.

Hello everyone!

I hope you are all taking a breather before the exam next week and have had a chance to recover and recharge after the submission of the final logbook and Something Awesome Project. The quality so far has been really impressive and all the tutors are amazed at the projects that have come in.

As discussed last week we are holding some (optional) exam revision sessions this week for those who are interested:

• On Tuesday (tonight!) Richard will review and answer questions about the course lecture and activity content. It will be in our usual room, Patricia O’Shane, 4-6pm. We’ll do topics for all students first, engineering topics second, with the aim of letting the law students leave around halfway (5ish).
• On Wednesday, the Security Society will run a revision workshop in the SecLab - K17 G11 - from 2pm to 4pm. More details can be found through the society contacts.
• On Thursday, some of the tutors and I will be in the security lab from midday to run a bit of Q&A. If you’ve got any last minute questions, please come along and we’ll do our best to help you out where we can.

More announcements will be made through the week regarding access to the exam and how to submit, along with the exam skeleton and everything else you’ll need to know for Monday.

Looking forward to seeing you this week.
Kris.
