But I'm not relieved. I'm just pissed and disappointed for various reasons....long story really...

I was crying hysterically for hours this morning.

I get mine tomorrow morning, I'm not that worried though?
Not because I'm all that confident about them, I just want next year to start where the work actually counts.
I'm 85% sure I've failed Elementary Logic (why oh why did I choose to do this? People who say philosophy is a doss should be forced to take a logic course) but I should be ok with everything else.

First of all, congrats to everyone who posted their results. Sara, I'm sorry you were disappointed but try not to let it get you down. You gots to RISE ABOVE, know what I'm sayin?

My results come out tomorrow. I'm pretty indifferent about it. I know I didn't work very hard. All I'm concerned about is getting the course I want, which I probably will get. As I'm staying in England for the summer, I wont be able to collect my results from the school. That wouldn't be a problem if I hadn't LOST MY EXAM PIN NUMBER so I can't obtain them via the internet . So I'm not so much worried about the actual results as I am about not being able to get them.

I've e-mailed my mam asking her to ring the school to see if they have my PIN number. If that doesn't work out, I'll probably contact the CAO office and explain my situation to them. Oh well

I'm stressed, you could say.
I'm not really eating a lot this week and my kitchen looks like a landfill because the recycling's not being done. Stress makes me want to hide away.

ARGH!

Well, I got what I wanted It's a big personal achievement because I know myself that I had some stuff going on and spent more time worrying about things than studying. That A1 in English really saved my arse, but I'm disappointed with Art because I only got a B. I really let myself down in the written exam. I'm happy about getting B in Irish toisc nach raibh aon creideamh ag mo mhúinteoir intim

So I'm bound for English and Psychologyyyy in UCD

Oh and good luck to you Amity

I totally fucked up my exams (BDE - not good) but I managed to squeeze a place in clearings all the same. Pretty happy.

I have exam stress at the moment. I hope the results of the kids in my Year 11 class are comparable to those in the Head of Department's class. It's vanity, sure, but I want to look like I can get good essays out of my students.

Unhappy

Well I went to get my results today it said "referred" I was in bits, but decided to see my course leader to see where I had gone wrong and what I could do. She looked at my results and it said that I had failed one essay and had got 5%! There was no way that me or my tutor thought that this mark could be right so she is going to contact the tutor who marked it to check what I actually got. I am so stressed right now, term starts on Monday and I still have no idea what is happening.

My class did no worse than the other, but I was still a bit gutted by the pass rate.

Got an email from the head of department today, I have passed the year!!! The 5% was a typing error, I am very relieved.

that's awesome rocker!!

I just got my grades in full.
(I repeat exams so I didn't know if I totally passed yet)
I was really upset for a long time about Social Policy because I took his test 4 times and failed each time and I just passed on the 5th time. I've failed last years each time too and just did my final repeat for it. It's cost me 1000+ euros, even repeating a whole year because of that goddam subject.

Law ~ Merit 2
Applied Social Studies part1 ~ Merit 2
Sociology ~ Merit 1
Psychology ~ Merit 1
Applied Social Studies part2 ~ Merit 1
Personal and Professional Development ~ Merit 1
Social Policy ~ Distinction

My Social Policy lecturer is definitely fucking me around. From failing EVERYTIME and now its gonna say d
