To follow on from yesterdays post, I got the sheet with my exact breakdown of marks today. To replicate exactly what the bottom line of the sheet said:
Overall result = 2:1 (just!)
'Just!' - my feelings at the moment are who cares!! A 2:1 is a 2:1, I wasn't expecting it and I'm really chuffed - irrespective of how close a call it was!! It's been one of those occasions in my life where I've kind of hoped for something without really thinking it would happen and whereas most times I've been proved right and whatever I'd hoped for didn't happen, this has turned out to be 1 of the few times that trend has been bucked (funnily enough 1 of the other 'few' was my first degree, hmmm...maybe there's something I could learn from this!).
The individual breakdown of marks made for interesting reading - very surprised at some of the area's that came out better than others etc. The most disappointing thing was getting an embarrasingly low mark (my lowest mark of my two years here) in what has been both the best taught / supervised and my favourite course. But at the end of the day I didn't think I would get the 2:1, and after what has been a really hard slog, especially for the last couple of months, I'm really happy!!
