So,
Results are in. Repeat. Results are in.
It's so good to get the results even when they're poor.
M362
I was actually expecting a little more for M362 I thought the exam went really well. Just goes to show you can never be certain. M362 was also the first course I'd actually read all the material so it's a bit worrying I couldn't even pull off a Grade 2. No matter, it shows I'm either not working hard enough or am quite quite stupid.
M359
M359 what a disaster! Oh boy. I do consider my commercial SQL strong but obviously not strong enough. I thought the TMA's undid me on this one. I thought. I tackled the first couple of TMA's without spending any real time on the materials and got woeful marks. From this start it was really tough to get anything better than a Grade 3 so I was in a real low gear for the exam revision. Bombed the exam as well though. Double trouble. Ouch! So didn't even scrape the Grade 3. Very poor! Lesson learnt here though. Always put a huge amount of work into the first TMA, you can always ease off later if you're lucky enough to be thraping them!
Booo!
I quite liked the idea, when this OU campaign began, of getting a first. Now though. I'll be happy with a pass. I may have lost a first but I have gained the utmost respect for anyone with a first. Those guys are giants and I salute them all.
In brighter news. Officially three years down. Three years to go.
I Suppose a First is Out of the Question..?
