Perhaps you're just not smart enough to be a successful university student. If you've struggled so badly, you should have been honest with yourself and left.0 -

If you do work hard and don't get a 2:1 you obviously don't have a decent grasp of the subject you are taking.Four guns yet only one trigger prepare for a volley.Together we can make a difference.0

I said that if people don't get a 2:1 then they haven't worked hard enough or they don't fully grasp the material. Besides lectures aren't the be all and end all of work, they are meant more as a guide as to where you should be in your own studies, you are meant to (especially in philosophy) do alot of outside reading.
Its probably glaring oversights like this and missing out on details that holds your marks back.0 -

I have written to them and almost shouted at them for help and I still got very little, so tell me how I have not been proactive?:beer:0 -

How come you constantly compare yourself to others when you know it increases your paranoia?0 -
