Assuming you had notes on every part of the course, did they not lecture you on stuff you needed for the exam? Because the university would be at fault there.

 

It was all covered, but what I did was find the last two exams (2007 and 2008) and then make a list of the key topics and revise from my lecture notes on those topics. But the exam changed a lot this year. It's my own fault really I should have revised everything, but I decided I would only revise the stuff that is likely to come up in the exam due to time restraints. You only use what you learn in maybe 40% of lectures in an exam so I assumed everything was in order too.

As for answering the questions by trying to remember lectures, I can't remember what I had for dinner yesterday so it was all a little fuzzy trying to remember something I saw to 7 months ago. But looking back perhaps I would get 60%+ I have become a little more confident about a few of the answers.
