Relief



I finally got my exam results back the other day. It was several weeks later in coming that it should have been, and I was pretty worked up about it, but I did manage to pass everything. I ended up getting between 60-70% for all my different exams, which seems like a safe enough pass, but the pass cut-off isn't set at 50%, and for these exams it was 58%, which makes things a lot closer. It's a terrible system that only serves to increase stress on the students, but I still passed so I get to take it easy again for a while. I was one of the lucky ones though, the class average was also 58%, which would suggest half the class failed.




Apart from that, this post is just filler since I can't tear myself away from Muv Luv for any length of time. I estimate I'm about halfway through Alternative, but there's still so much that's yet to be resolved. Screw it, resuming play now. Have some Komachi, and I'll put up a proper post in the next few days (or however long it takes me to finish MLA).

  1. I really wonder about those kinds of classes. My organic chemistry class had the class's average exactly on the passing grade (which was in the 70's), which makes me think half the class failed. In what system is half the class failing doing good?

    Anyways, congratulations on your success!

  3. At least the worst didn't happen and you don't have to quit school anymore. We'll be waiting for some new posts.
