I got a paper back today, which I worked so hard on. Sent me crazy. I honestly thought there was 4 possibilities. A Fail, conceded pass, pass or credit. I got a High Distinction. I am so happy. Came home to tell everyone, and everyone is out, so sorry for boring you, but this is my first HD on a really hard assignment. (got a few on easy ones)

The moral of the story, if your like me, failed your end of high school exams, when your mark wasn't good enough to get you into uni, got knocked back twice and you had to pay triple the amount to get your bum on a seat. Just to finally scrape into the cause. This can happen. Results in school is not the be all and end all.

If you want it. You got to go and get it

    Fucking good work!! Such a good feeling getting HDs! Congratulations! :thumbup:

    What are you doing at uni? I was one of those students that studied a whole semester in 2 days before the exam and somehow still managed to mostly get Cs, Ds and HDs! haha Not saying I remember all of it! :lol: Nah, I remember a lot. Man some of those commerce subjects were boring. :yawn: So glad I'm finished....however now I want to move onto more study next year in a totally unrelated field. Glutton for punishment! ;)

    Hey, how was your sister's wedding?

  • I failed big time in High School.
    Got 44 score out of 100 on my ENTER.
    Went to Tafe, got my advanced diploma which got me into Uni and meant I only did 1.5 semesters as my adv diploma gave me many credits so I had less subjects to do in Uni.
    I finished my Marketing Degree successfully.
    The ENTER score is just a quicker way into uni, that is all.
