    Firstly, well done

    Secondly in terms of post grad, I think that as long as you do well in everything else then it shouldn't be too bad, especially if it's a first year module. I have a friend who applied to Cambridge and Medicine post grad (he did a music degree) and got into both, even though he had a third in one of his important modules :teehee:
    Thank you! That's what my tutor said too. He's got 2 PhD's and he only got a low 2.2 in his first year!

    Yeah we keep being told ours could come out anytime up to 10am on Friday. And whats more frustrating is other departments have given theirs back and not the flipping Politics department.

    :hugs: But if it benefits you in the long term then it will be worth it. I had that with an eye operation 2 years ago. The recovery was painful and long but I feel so much better for it now and I'm so happy I had it done. Hopefully the same will be for you too!

    Best of luck for both your operation and your results! :cube:
    Unrelated, but Loz, your avatar is so incredibly cute!!! :love: Also, good luck with your results! :hugs:

    Grrr, now its turned out our uni have extended the deadline for us to recieve our results to 5pm on the 10th July- thats almost a week away! This is starting to get a bit ridiculous now. Especially as two more departments got there results today so its only 4 departments waiting now.

    I forgot to sort out signing on this week... woops. Still, interview on Friday for an internship which is good but I wish it were for a full time job. After that I'm going to Gilwell 24 which should be a laugh. Must put more job apps in though... I haven't done any for about 3 weeks now. Oops.

    Mine could be Tuesday 12pm. I will not be checking them on my lunch break as I know group work will pull my average down and if it goes down too far, I'm liable to spend the rest of the day in another rant concerning the injustices of group work (and swearing a lot about it.)
