Hello all again;

Got my final essay mark back; I got 48% which is a high Third, I have to admit I am dissapointed, but I keep trying to remember that I never work well at home anyway and I had very little resources available.

And the main thing is I passed!!! I averaged about 56% this year, 4% off my target of a 2:1, but it is a respectable score all things considered.

Now I can get back to 'enjoying' the torture of work.

Thanks again for all your support.

Congratulations, Katy - if you can accomplish so much under such adverse circumstances, I bet you'll meet the challenges of a relatively ordinary academic year with confidence and gusto!

Hope you enjoy this school year far more than last!
