"This will be an assessed practical. I see some of you have read the brief and are still trying to figure out how the equipment in front of you relates to the theory you're supposed to prove. I see there are some very clever and helpful chaps in the lab today. Remember if I witness any conferring, I will have to disqualify you." (waits for second-hand on clock to get to zero..)

On the occasion of a suprise assessed practical where several of us could not figure out how to measuer the coefficient of restitution of the collision of a rubber ball and a laboratory bench. He was true to his word - by the time he was back we'd 'figured out' how to prove the theory.

'Okay then, let's try to figure this out.' (following with finger) 'First time through to the double bar, then do the repeat. Then skip the 1st time section to letter 'D'. Then do the da-capo but with no repeats down to the sign and then to the coda _with_ the repeat. Hooo boy We're going to need a roadmap for this.

Of course, as is usual practice, if you find any errors with the adding up of points that will help you on your exams, please let me know so I can correct it. And as usual, if you find errors on your exam that would hurt your score... well that's between you and Satan.
