First Micro Exam

[allthingsbright]

Hows everyone doing in Micro? Had any tests?

Got a 93 on my 1st lecture exam yesterday, but the class average was 64? We have another lab test tomorrow and those are getting progressively harder. Maybe people just have really full schedules and no time to study...I cant wait to get this over with myself.
