Absolutely chuffed!! The most rushed, stressed-making and worst essays that i have ever written (they required 3 nights of 3 hr sleeps, a million cups of tea...pretty much the worst week of my life) and what did i get...not the 9, 10 or 11 i expected but in fact the best marks ive got in my whole degree-an 18 and a 17!!!!
Words such as well-organized, intelligent observation, first class, very strongly argued etc left my mouth gaping wide in shock!! It appears that what I think is a good essay and what tutors think is good do not tally though what this means is that i am going into my castles exam tomorrow on a 16.7 average (as my other essay was a 15) which is a very far cry from my chivalry course average!! shame chivalry is higher weighted :(
