    ^ Fair ****s

    1 A2
    2 B2's
    1 C3
    1 D1

    Delighted by my A2, good for my B2's, very surprised at my C3. I thought I'd done a lot better. Knew my D1 was coming and it's my own fault.

    But what exactly does a compensatory fail mean?

    My QCA is still good enough. But time to kick myself into action a bit more.

    if you're qca is below 2.0 you need to repeat an compensatory fails (Ds)

    other wise you can ignore it or opt to repeat it to improve your qca

  • Registered Users Posts: 149 ✭✭TwilightFan88


    Anyway of finding out what you actually got in a module you did instead of co-op?? Like an A or B instead of the P??

    Got my results, the unsecure method or w/e worked for me. Slight improvement on last semester; 3 A1s, 1 A2, 1 B1. Bummed about that B1 !! ;)

    OK.

    I went to the library, forgetting about how ridiculously slow the PCs are.

    I got in, but it said to use "Windows ID" and password, which I assumed meant my e-mail. That didn't work, neither did my normal login details

    I got fed up on the PC and went back to check my laptop, the "Student Records" link comes up with a 404 error, I've hit F5, closed and reopened, over and over again, nothing.
    I tried the "secured" link. No luck there.

    This is just feckin' ridiculous.

    I'll try restarting my laptop, not sure if that will make any difference though :(

    according to the su:

    Go to www.ul.ie.
    Click Current Students.
    Click Student Records.
    A new page should open. In this page, do the following:
    Enter your student ID.
    Enter the password you would use at one of the UL PC Clusters.
    Enter your date of birth.

    Co-op is pass or fail as far as I know. Nothing awarded in terms of QCA.

    Aware of that! But emailed the lecturer's and they gave me my 'actually' grade!

    Firstly, congrats to all, some great results out there from the sounds of it. Particular congrats to 4th years, best feeling in the world to know what your final degree will be.

    I got an A2 and two B1s this semester, which combined with Sem 1 gives me 3.3 QCA, with the thesis still to play for.... My question is, does anyone have any idea how the discretionary band between a 1:1 and a 2:1 works? I hear its from 3.3 to 3.4 QCA. I plan on working like mad at my thesis and would be fairly confident of getting a B1 or so, but I don't think this would bring me up higher in terms of QCA. Would any Masters students out there maybe know from their undergrad, what is the likelihood of my 3.3 QCA getting me pushed up to a 1:1?

    Thanks!

    2 B1.
    2 B2
    1 B3
    1 C1

    Am quite shocked at those results I had one or two projects go tits up on me and thought they would be lower.

    InDesign grade went up but it second module was more based on ones imagination than the mechanical preciseness of the first module.and too

    Got the 90 wpm in Shorthand too, it is hard to believe i nearly considered seeking an exemption from it. just as well I decided to give it a lash.

    A journalistic writing project kinda went pear shaped on me and thought I would lose more marks.

    Also one of the essays in the exam for another module was not that long. it would seem that whilst it was short, I got all the right points in

    Wow that's impressive! I did all those modules in 2nd year and could only dream of such results.

    My spring 2010 return has left me in a bittersweet frame of mind - relieved (in some cases )and delighted with what I got but lamenting that I would now have a degree if I didn't fail one crappy module in winter :(

    but that's what repeats are for and if I pass it this time around it'll feel all the sweeter! :)

    Anyone know when results of rechecks will be out?
