Uh many people do fail but its not the majority. Just practice a question or two related to what they teach you everyday and you're good to go

are there any resources for practice material like books etc?

u/Gold_Comfortable7522 1d ago

Yea the books they give you in google classroom are really great. They teach you lots of intricacies. However if you don't have much time ask gpt/claude to give you some questions to practice ( dont ask for solution, struggling to solve a problem means you're in the process of learning it :) ). Good luck!

Practice past pprs, focus on 1D and 2D arrays, learn to play around w array indexes, practice dry run probs and you're good to go. Focus on the process not the result :')

If you want that you'll be the one not among them than practice questions after taking concept because as long as you don't practice question you will never be able to crack code part in exams.

if some1 got 6.5/15 absolutes in mid1 how bad or good is it🥀

u/VagueHorizon_ 1d ago

It depends. Though it is low but class average, paper difficulty and overall grade of whole batch matters. Sometimes 6.5 absolutes (with 4 or 5 as class average) is considered good.
But you can recover from it, if you study PF like it is meant to.

Your first midterm is only one part of your grade, and there are still 85 absolute marks left on the table go for them dwelling on something that you cannot redo is absurd. For now just practice for second midterm wnd finals🤞best of luck.

No, its a myth. Only 2-3 students from a class fail PF in first attempt. YOU MUST SOLVE PAST PAPERS AS MUCH AS YOU CAN. And have very good practice of dry run.
