Reasons for passing courses
- Already had good understanding before the exam, like Introduction to Data Structures and English
- Prepared well enough in the past year, like Advanced Mathematics and Database Applications
Reasons for failed courses
- Thought that I had already prepared well, but actually hadn’t. The exercises I did for the failed subjects were apparently fewer than for the passed courses.
- Did not give enough time to prepare
- Just walked through videos of the subjects pretending to understand.
Exam preparation
- Sleep well, maintain a good routine for sleep
- Morning and afternoon exams may be in different locations, check the right locations
- Register for the exam on time
