Sorry can I be highly dim here but what exactly is a mid-term?? And why do you bother to have them? Its pretty straight forward here - we take a module/class go to lectures/practicals then we sit an exam based on said module/class and then we get the overall grade for it (including any possible marks from coursework/practicals etc) and thats it.
I don't understand the American system - all this talk of GREs and SATs and mid terms and Spring Break and things like that. I've only worked out what a grad student is!!!! hehehe.
May I boast somewhat? Here in Finland we can *choose* when we sit our exams. Yes, thats right! Its great. But slightly dangerous too.
