Results II - Return of the Results
Jun. 7th, 2005 08:09 amI was compelled, as I am at every hour of the day, to check my results to see if they'd come up yet just before going to bed. Surprisingly they had, which means that now I feel compelled to write an analytical entry before I can get to sleep. In fact, I glanced at the page and then got Whitney to read the results out to me, because that tactic worked last time.
In a repeat of the situation from last semester, I got my worst grade in the subject that I thought was easiest - a 15.3 for Databases, which is also my lowest Honours mark (so far). I don't remember the exam being particularly brilliant - it included an entire section on PHP, which was glossed over in one lecture using a couple of slides - and I was just glad to get it over with.
Joint second at 16.0 were Logic and the Project. I have no clue how I got that mark for Logic, so I can't say anything about that, and I also don't know how my grade for the project compares to the rest of the people in my group - that all depends on how good I was at creating the illusion that I was working.
The highest mark, as I suspected, was in Operating Systems - a 17.6, which seems a pretty good excuse for wine related carnage. All right, I'll stop now.
It seems that it's rather early in the morning for people in Britain, so if you're in computer science and haven't checked your results yet, good luck. If you're in computer science and know your results, I hope they were decent (or above!) as well. If you're not in computer science, I don't care good luck to you too.
