    Wow Debrag You seem to have it all planned out:)

    I used to love planning out my future courses...I still do and I only have one more left to do after this to complete my degree:D There are still other that I want to do though.

    Could I be added too please? I finished my first OU course, A173, Starting to Write Family History in January this year, result due in 2 weeks! I have an arts degree so I'm studying to exercise my brain cells mostly, fitting it around being a SAHM to three girls (6, 6 and 4) and working freelance on a very part-time basis. I'm now contemplating my next course and thinking of taking Y162 (Starting with maths), to help me help my children with their homework! I paid for my first course with Tesco Clubcard vouchers and hope to do the same for the next one.

    I got mine for W100 back yesterday. I got 80, which I know is a decent mark for a first TMA, but I was a bit put out at being marked down for the use of quotes. :confused: In all my previous (non-OU) study, you got marked down for NOT using quotes to illustrate your point! :(

    When I did W100 - they like quotes in all places - think it was to do with the understanding of the law. (if thats any help) x
