    got mine day before yesterday.
    went very good.
    you know, it's like this...
    when you aced an exam, you know it as soon as you complete it.
    but when you didn't do quite so good, vis. 50%, you begin to prepare yourself for the worst. and when results time comes around, you begin to feel confident that you failed such and such a subject. that way you cant get dissapointed. setting yourself up to be over the moon with your 42% etc.. its a common subconscious weapon we all have in our mental arsenal to either cope with failure, or to find delight in the mediocrity of our 'should have been better' results.

    i'll be waiting for your post tomorrow telling me you passed everything.

    best of luck to you and anyone else reading this and waiting on results.
    and congratulations to those who have already recieved good results, and also to those who have recieved bad results. repeat. at least you had the right idea of going to college in the first place. dont give up! :)

    Got my results (a day earlier than expected).
    A 1H, way better than I had hoped (especially since I thought I messed up my exams)

    For the second year in a row, my favourite subject (and the one exam I thought I did fine in) gets me my worst result. Note to self: must stop having favourite subjects.

    rang the head of my department 2 weeks ago, he gave me results and said i passed, mailed me a week later to say i got back to finish the degree.
    Now today the results come in the post saying i failed two, but overall percentage was 52.8 with exemptions granted.
    He's getting an earful tomorrow if i have to repeat :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Got mine the other day. Passed them all just destroyed my average and must repeat at least one to bring it up to get back in so gonna do two. Some study for me i reckon. Missed the grade by 0.007 what the french would call "kick en le nutz".

    Been waiting for 5 weeks for UL results now but it feels like a feckin' eternity - guess I should have tried harder to get a job or something.

    Results'll finally go up on Monday. Last time they put them up on the Friday evening so hopefully they'll do that again. Else I'm in for one helluva long weekend...

    Put them up they did and I nearly had a feckin' heart attack...

    2 A1's and a 3.7 QCA. Seriously cannot believe it.

    Excuse me while I go and kiss people randomly in the street....
