The exam in electricity & magnetism really was a killer - there were quite a lot of questions about the specifics of some technological inventions. Getting an 'A' would be really far-fetched. I guess I should be happy with a 'C' or something. But well, let's see - I answered all the questions so there's a possibility that most of them are right.
Edit: I got a 'C'. I barely got enough points so that I didn't fall through (exam was 67 / 100 and total points 78 / 100). It's interesting that I got the 4th place among all of the participants, but it's pretty far from an 'A' anyway. So, another miss from the perspective of micro-PK practice. Well, there's still the oral exam - _maybe_ I can better my results there. =/
Edit: Edit: I messed up a few times at the oral exam. The professor even said: "How can someone with your level make such a mistake?" I answered: "My level is probably too low for this.." and he said it was a 7th grade math problem. Well, once he showed me how it's actually done, I found it was elementary (Ohm's law =D), but still I had gotten it wrong in the exam. He even said that so far nobody has passed the exam with that mistake - he has bombed all of them, who have gotten it wrong.
Edit: Edit: Actually, it remembered me of a joke I made in the lecture - he was commenting the exams of year 2009 and said that it's embarrassing, how people don't know Ohm's law. Everybody laughed and I said to one of my buddies: "This time it's probably going to be me." That buddy answered: "No way man, it's gonna be me, who gets the Ohm's law wrong in the exam." Well, both of us did XD.
Edit: Edit: 2.5 hours of oral examination had made my head all foggy and the professor gave me a problem to solve to make it all up. Well, I integrated a minute or two and saw how wrong I had answered before. Then he asked me if I wanted to fight on for an 'A'. I was like: "What? No, my level probably won't reach that high." Wow, I had gotten a 'B' and an 'A' wouldn't have been so far-fetched at all.
