Going to pick up my results...

[The Negotiator]

Possibly my results should be available from my personal tutor (who no longer talks to me) in 15 minutes so I am off.

All please please please pray for me (not expecting them to be as good as my normal standards :S) and if I don't return by 7pm could somebody come and find me because i will probably have had a drink and be feeling ill.

**** **** ****.

Me too, but i've only had 1 exam
Just mine was logical foundations (maths and logic). Thought i did crap but ended up with 78%. Was most shocked.

Morale of the story - dont beat yourself up paul if you dont get the result you want as its not the end of the world - theres always resits. And if you do well, then celebrate

You ever thought of writing an autobiography Paul? It wouldn't take long you could just put all your threads together!!!!

I got mine a couple of days ago, they were crap. And I'm a second year.

Good luck kidda. Mine aren't out until the 9th of March so got a few weeks before I need to start s***ing bricks

And who exactly are we praying to? I am confused......

 

[poggy]

Whatever they are, they aren't that critical as long as you pass. After you've been working for a few years qualifications start to take a back seat and job experience and achievements become more important to employers when they look at CV's.

The qualifications get you through the door and give you a big head start in many companies, but I've employed some really highly qualified people who struggle to actually do the job.

Good luck with them.

By the sounds of it, anybody who might help

Richie, who else am I supposed to talk to? I use FF to chat about my life lol.

I passed by the way Phew. Stupid personal tutor didn't even know I had done exams nevermind results. I punched him to the floor and kicked the **** out of him then took him by his collar to another professor to sort him out. (i.e. I apologised for expecting him to know anything about exam results - because although everybody in years 1-4 or whatever are getting them he's too important to know that - and went and sat in a corner for 45 minutes).

I then went and asked another Dr (nice bloke but too nice so he scares me) and he had a good chat with me and told me my scores

I got 75.25 overwall so yes, I was worrying about nothing.

well done paul

 

[The Negotiator]

I am estatic, the Dr asked how well I thought I had done, I explained how I hadn't settled in at all to the way that it is all taught etc. He asked me what sort of mark, I said 40-50, I would be estatic with 60+ (I need that for year in industry).

He was very pleased to tell me that I was being a **** for worrying.

Sadly not all my friends did so well, one somehow got 60 - I expected him to get sub 50 but another got 58 when he really wanted 60+

My favourite friend (the bitch who I hate) wouldn't tell us.

My favourite friend (the bitch who I hate) wouldn't tell us.

thats an odd sentence!

congrats tho Paul

It was neo-sarcasm

She looked red faced for ages, not sure what that means. WIll give her chance to tell people - she was as worried as me.

 

[JonnyBoy]

Nice one, I think my highest ever result in a single module was 72 so you've beat me already! Get yourself out on the p*ss and celebrate

 

[smurfhead]

congratulations Paul

I was like "right, where are we going drinking, even I AM GOING TO GET INTOXICATED" and they all looked at me blankly and slowly disappeared until it was just me left. Solitary drinking when you're not used to drink can't be good so I am going to watch neighbours instead.
