Anyone else hate CAPA's

Uggh doing a chem capa right now. A timed capa none the less, thought it was due two days from now hahaha. Oh well.

Anyone else find these the bane of their existence?

CAPAs suck, but there's nothing like being tested 30 seconds after you've learned something with a clicker test

I really think that's bs. Also, my school can't decide on which clicker to use, so I had to drop $40 on an iClicker AND $40 on a H-ITT. What a crock. But yeah, CAPAs blow.

you're in dalhousie I take it?

I used to do chem capas back west at SFU.. gosh these things really are all over the country.
I don't hate CAPAs per se. I just hate the questions that have 9-10 options, and if you don't get ALL 10 correct or something, you get the whole question wrong.

It's like marking an exam, and unless all of the questions are right in the first half, you get 0/50 marks
