Not-So-Easy A

Took my first major test of the term today. It's one of five tests I'll have to take in Biology 120, and purportedly one of the harder tests of that course. It was about 45 multiple choice questions, a handful of matching questions, and a single essay (on how to define criteria that supports a scientific claim).

The hardest part dealt with cellular structure (e.g., organelles, bilipid membranes, mitochondrial structure and its importance to the electron transport system, etc.) and cellular respiration and production of adenosine triphosphates (ATP) for energy (you know: glycolysis, Kreb's cycle, pyruvates, acetyls, blah, blah, blah), but I have a good feeling about it overall.

I'll go out on a limb and say I scored a high A, somewhere in the 95%+ range. We'll see if my prediction pans out. Now to catch up on all the other classes I've neglected while studying for this test...
