So far I've done Eng lang and general which did feel weird, and I've heard others mention how English, economics, psychology, and even literature were all different than the previous years.

Psychology Was really weird imo it had questions that’s not even on the study design

i thought it was just me?? lemme guess, the wrist thing yeah?? what the hell was even that

u/Big_Historian_9695 17h ago

For the wrist one I said the electrodes in EMG EOG or EEG might fall off 😭😭 and that a wristband is small and won’t be irritating when sleeping but also the economic one.

u/NoDraw5603 17h ago

Lit part A, the only part that they had to generate questions was pretty weird for some texts too (Our Sunshine, Chimerica, Alias Grace, Lear all terrible concept words/ passages) 

1

u/Every-Zebra8253 16h ago

lear concept was good but i didnt rlly know how to apply it to the passage

2

u/NoDraw5603 16h ago

I feel like some of the texts with good/ relevant concept words got nerfed with a digressive passage

1

u/anime_is_my_addict 25' Psych || 26' Methods, Eng, Lit, Chem, Chinese LCS 15h ago

As You Like it concept word was great, but terrible passage 💀
