    Elfen - I meant to say I had one module in Uni that I completely stuffed up the assesments on - anyway it depends what your uni does and what year you are in but mine only used half of the marks from year 2 level modules so that rubbish 52 module mark wasnt counted anyway (and it was only 10 credits anyway so even if it had it wouldnt have counted for much)...

    Might be worth checking out your handbook for more details on how you degree mark is worked out :)

    becky, they keep saying year 1 doesn't count, but it does to me as it means I can or can't do the assessment thingies right,

    I do it all because I'm scared.

    Oh even better you're in year 1 :)

    Honestly - brush it off and do better next time...I got an average mark of 61 for year 1 and my degree mark was 69.73 - the reason year 1 doesnt count is there most definitely is a steep learning curve with uni essays and exams from a-levels and it takes a while to get the hang of it. You'll do better with the next one :D
