GET AN A!

Despite a reluctance to spend time blogging due to being extremely busy these few weeks i just HAD to write something about this.

To the following Genes and Society Students,

Ever wondered how you could improve your score for this module without breaking any effort? Ever felt that your lack of a Biology background would be a hindrance in scoring well for this module? The mid-term test was just over, do you feel that you are lacking questions to pratise on? Ever wondered if it were possible not to study for this module and yet score an A? Well, here is the perfect solution to your problems.

We are offering 8 past year quiz papers and 2 final exam papers with solutions up for sale for just a price of $30. This is definitely a worthwhile investment as all of the people who did these past year questions have scored at least an A for this module; reason being the final exam questions are repeated and circulating from all these papers. Whether you are taking this module to pull up your CAP or helping you to get into dean's list, this module is a definitely can-score-A module.

If you are interested in acquiring a set of these papers please reply this e-mail by 12pm of 25 Oct 2005 with your contact nos. This comes on a first-come-first-serve basis and while stocks last.

OMGWTF IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE is the first thing that came to my mind when i read this.

$30 FOR SOME PAST YEAR PAPERS OMGWTF!!!

"Improve your score for this module without breaking effort"
"not to study for this module and get an A"
"This is definitely a worthwhile investment as all of the people who did these past year questions have scored at least an A for this module"

That just sounds so moronic. It is already logically wrong from the start. You cant get an A from buying this thing if u dont do all the papers. And doing all the papers = spend time studying this module = putting effort into it. The part about "all of the people who did these questions have scored at least an A for this module" sounds so fake too. I certainly find it hard to believe a person who wrote this got an A.

And yet somehow i get the feeling that many people are going to believe this shit and spend $30 buying this thing, rushing to buy it as fast as they can "while stocks last"

How sad can humans get... both buyer and seller side.

For me i'll just look up the past year papers i want in the library, thank you. Free of charge too (or rather just photocopying charges which are definitely 30times or more cheaper than this overpriced offer).
