2 Exams down, 2 More to go!
I just wanted to make a post saying what relief it is that Finance 351 is now officially over =) I mean it was a great wonderful paper that was really interesting, but for some reason, no matter how much work I put in, the marks just haven't been coming!
You should have seen Edris , Linda and I right before our exam. We were all in the AIESEC office ten minutes before we have to be at the exam hall, completely silent scrambling desperately through our notes. Occasionally one of us would say something like "Hey, can you guys remember what the Residiual Dividend Model is?", everyone's face expression would suddenly drop as we all realized we didn't know what the hell each other was talking about. Then there would be more desperate page flicking as we tried to cram the formulas into our head with what little time we had left.
Fast forward 10 mins!
Low and behold in the exam Question 3, a, ii states:
Calculate the total amount of additional equity that needs to be raised if we use a residual dividend policy.
I almost cried tears of joy when I came across this =p Thank you frantic, panicked study!
So I would just like to say that this proves two common statements very very wrong!
1) You can't get any valuable work done in the AIESEC office!
and
2) An hour before an exam, you don't learn anything new!
From now on, I will have a textbook in front of me right till I walk through the exam room doors =)
The three of us in the good old days at the start of semester when we still enjoyed 351. Now I believe we would all have the same face expressions while slowly shredding our 351 notes =p

man... what a relief!
but i'll always look back and remember the good old days of Jerry B & Joe C and how we always always sit at the same place... and the 3 of us never really listening to the lecturer but drawing on each others' hands... oh.. was that just me? lol =P
but it was fun to have 2 other aiesecers in the class! some people i can always count on especially when i can't make it to lectures! *opz*

*hugz the Finance honours student*
LOL I'm wondering how I've made it through any of my classes so far without other AIESECers there with me =)

Maaan, you guys are so funny. I'm just remembering David before his exam last Friday frantically looking at past exam papers and did I imagine it??? Whimpering?? =) Mind you, I'll probably be doing that tomorrow!
