Julia finally caved and granted the alteration for the entire cohort. This outcome proves that we were right to refuse their confusing and negligent instructions. Keep your proofs of this approval handy just in case they try to backtrack.

Honest inconsistent information given over the last few weeks, and only trying to clarify specific information the week before the due date which still has inconsistencies within it. There should be an alteration granted for entire cohort maybe just including the abstract, introduction and discussion as it has been this way in past papers. Or a written section which we can all use (maybe written up by Julia herself), because three different documents with completely different results is not fair nor does it make any sense.

The sheer number of people joining this fight proves that Julia’s constant incompetence and conflicting directions have pushed us all to the breaking point. We will not accept these conditions when the inconsistencies in the assignment documents are sabotaging our grades.

Very inconsistent information given from tutors + convenor. Convenor is aware of inconsistencies but has failed to address this in discussion forum.
The way this whole assessment has been handle is outrageous, no help when we needed it due to it being completely unclear about what we need to do! This assessment is worth 40% and if we do badly we only have the exam to rely on!
This is my second time doing this unit, and the assignment is harder than the first time. Last year, we weren't required to write up results but this year we are and it has made things a lot harder.
I have never experienced this level of stress from a university assignment before. I lay awake from 9:00pm to 1:00am worrying about how I was going to do this when I had work at 5:30 the next morning
Having 3 separate documents of results, the lateness in the course of when we were given the outline of the report and a lecture explaining results a week before it is due, is not something I have ever encountered before - and I've been a student for a long time at several universities.
Very confusing and also disappointing that there has been no communication from unit conveners or even tutors about the inconsistencies.
At first glance It seems like the assignment gives us a lot of information, but I was incorrect, a lot of confusion and little help on the forum, no answers from tutors

Results indicated in the Lab report sheet originally given were then altered last minute in the lecture. The lecture did not add to my understanding of the results and only added to the confusion . I'm still unsure of whether to use the results given in the original document or in the lecture. I understand we were instructed to use 'whatever works' but this seems misguided and when given so late in the assignment puts everyone at a disadvantage.
