 Well I got 00% last semester for a 0rd level module that I've spent the most effort one - 000 hours for two assignments and 000 hours of studies. The recommended amount of time is around 000 hours and not 000 hours. Most of the class failed this exam and that includes A students getting 00%. So an open book will be welcome but one cannot even pass the assignments of this module without putting in a crap load of effort. Making it an open book exam will not water down the value of the pass mark for any student who has written this module.
