How helpful do you find this statement? You should make reference to two of the plays you have studied.

    I probably could write a decent essay on this but for some reason my essay went off on a tangent about the Greek chorus and there was zero reference to any of the plays we had read. Sadly there wasn't enough of the essay to salvage or time to write anything worth handing in.
    I think you just wore your brains out on the other eight essays you've done in the last few weeks.
    That and I enjoyed working on my play too much. I'm pretty sure that the mark for that will balance out the 40% I stand to get for the essay I'll have to redo. I did a quick estimate of my grades for this year and I should be hovering around the 2:1 area still. Which is nice.

    I think Nietzsche wore his brains out by having to remember how to spell "Nietzsche" when he signed cheques, etc.

    I was hovering around the 2:1 area.

    I got a 2:2 by half a percent.

    If you get a 2:1, good on ya!

    I missed a first by 4%. I even appealled but they were tight mofuckers.

    Cheers. I'm hoping what will swing it for me is the fact that I have been getting good grades for my creative work and I am allowed to do a creative piece for my dissertation.

    4% is a bit of a mountain

    I missed a first by 10.5%. I tried to bribe the lecturer, and even offered her hawt sex, even though she had a moustache and a voice like Zed from the Police Academy films. But I still ended up with a "desmond"

    I only want a 2:1 because my sister got a "desmond".
