Weeee - Pass 2nd Year of Uni

I've pass my second year of uni - now to bum around (err.. well even more than usual)

Here are my grades

PPA (Programming Paradigms) - 72 % (A) Forum Link
LAS (Language Systems) - 78% (A) Forum Link
CSY (Computer Systems) - 63% (B)
FME (Formal Methods) - 70% (A)
WGP (Windows GUI Programming) 82% - (A)
DST (Data Structures) - 58% (C)

I'm very happy with them results, wasn't expecting any that high.

I wouldn't say our exam are more difficult than in America...I just think it is easier to get more marks in your exams.

I had a friend go to Miami for half a semester. He said that the lecturers get you to buy their books and go through them in the same order as the textbook and the questions in the exams are in that order as well....That's what it is like in high school here and it is more like 80 for an A.
