Title: Blatant showing off
Post by: PuppetSockPenguin on July 05, 2011, 10:26:57 PM: So the results for the final semester of my Masters came out today: 2 Distinctions and 1 Credit.
This means that I've now completed the requirements of the degree.

I did this despite my home situation being crappy, despite not having a home computer and the fact that one of my classes was online delivered and the other needed a computer to write my work out, and while rehearsing for/performing in 2 musicals.

An Elder, a talented musician, and an all around positive contributor to the site who has had an account for almost 4 years.

Congrats PSP :thumbup::plus:

Can't say it any louder than CBC, so I'll just quote her for truth.

Post by: renaeden on July 06, 2011, 09:19:37 PM: That is excellent, PuppetSockPenguin. I hope there is some way you can reward yourself.

I also got my results. Three Credits. Wish I had done better, I think the exams were what let me down a bit. Ah well. :-\

Someone who is probably of no interest to you due to
1. Not being some kind of flying machine.
2. Not posting nude pictures no matter how nicely she's asked. At least, not ones of herself.

Three Credits is still decent; and if you know what needs improving, you can work on it.

I finished my undergrad degree with a cumulative GPA of 4.93; my GPA for this course was 5.75. It is possible to improve.

Post by: renaeden on July 15, 2011, 10:52:13 PM: That GPA difference is a big improvement. :)

I have improved in my assignments, which is good. Just the exams were so hard, a lot to remember this time and I studied heaps. New semester starts up in a couple of weeks. Here we go again. :GA:

Seconded.

For the subjects that I got distinctions in, if I'd scored 2.5% higher in one and 1% higher in the other they would've been high distinctions, which would have given me a term GPA of 6.5.

If this pattern continues I am going to do awesomely when I eventually do my PhD. :green:
