    Aw no way! What do you think they'l give ya in the essay ya just submitted today, its a bit stupid that we had to submit it twice! I got a D in my first essay and then I had a gotten a B- in my second but they moved me down to a C cause my referencing was bad! :( What did you write you two essays on??

    Oh really? Dats not too good :rolleyes: ... Hopefully since the D was written in the box thing that it might be the official grade! Who knows, the F+ could have even been rough work for someone else's essay?:P

    I did Problems of Philosophy last year and provided you have the lectures notes for at least three sections it's easy as the same questions come up every year and the notes are really good. If you don't have the lecture notes though you are pretty much screwed as none of the readings or books will help you. Analytical philosophy really isn't my thing so I hated this module.
