First AS module results.
Ming Mang Started conversation Mar 14, 2002
Well, we got our results for the modules we sat in January.
These go towards our AS-level final grades, except for Maths, which go towards my A-level Maths - I'm doing Further Maths... 
Maths, Pure Module 1: B - 78% (2 marks off an A)
Maths, Pure Module 2: D - 57% (3 marks off a C)
RE, Foundation Module: A - 80% (on the boundary line!)
Chemistry, Foundation Module: A - 90% (definitely an A! 
)
I'm verty pleased with all these results, especially the fact I passed P2! I'll still be re-sitting it though, and probably P1 as well. I may also re-sit the RE exam.

Only thing I understood of that post was "I'm verty pleased", but that sounded good!

It's funny you should say that Ottox, 'cause that's the only part I *didn't* understand
Just think, without my help in the Maths, Ming, you probably would have gotten that A and C

I might understand the maths (once upon a time I would have understood, I'm sure...), but I don't understand the education system! But I better keep quiet about that, or I'll get Ming ranting about the government again...

And without your help King C, I would probably have a Maths average of D instead of C.

Congratulations! I'm happy you're pleased, and good luck with the re-sittings!

Hmmm ... not that much, but anyways, I'll do it again if you need it. I wish I knew more about maths, actually.

You did help though. And you know more than me about maths.

Well done! Very well done, indeed!
I don't think you should bother re-sitting the P1 module - you're unhappy with a B?? 
And re-sitting RE is just preposterous!
But the best of luck with having another stab at P2!
(Aside, just as a note: I won't be on the messenger tonight either, I'm afraid. Gotta revise. 
)

Thanks!
I want to re-sit P1 because I can easily get that mark up, which will help with my final grades. It could also compensate for exams I take later which I do badly in. Same reason for re-sitting RE.
And I'm sure I'll do better when I re-sit all of them!
(Oh... OK. Good luck with whatever you're revising for! )

OK, OK, good enough reasons, granted.
I think you're only allowed to do better. That is, if you do worse, it isn't counted. Your grades aren't actually allowed to go lower, only higher.
(Thanks. )

Ming Mang Posted Mar 14, 2002
Yeah, that's right, the highest grade is counted. And in Maths it'll be fiddled slightly as well because of the ridiculously high fail rate... But I /am/ going to do better.

Not just a little bit better ... lots and lots better!

Goody-good good!
I wonder if I'll ever study mathematics again ...?
