Results are in....

Sunday, December 5, 2010

Well, official results for this semester have been released and I'm pleasantly surprised!  I was fairly confidant after both exams that I'd managed a distinction, but imagine my shock when I instead got 2 whopping, big fat High Distinctions!!  Of all the marks I have received so far, I am by far most proud of the HD for A&P.  It's a very challenging subject with a 30% failure rate, and HD's are scored rarely.  The science subjects are the ones I feared the most when I started, considering my last attempt at anything sciencey was back in year 8.  I'm just so thrilled that I managed to understand it all and pleased that all my hard work has paid off. 

So with these new marks, my GPA is 6.83 - Woohoo!!  I've done my absolute best, so now it's just up to the Midwifery decision makers as to whether I get a place or not.

Once the results had been posted, I've become mildly addicted to looking and admiring my academic transcript.  From the beginning of this year, my motivation was just to pass, but now I'm determined to never just pass - even that lonely distinction bugs me! 

So, Taa-daa.....My transcript so far:
