    If not happy with marks - can I do anything about it?
    Basically, I've got my marks for a coursework assignment and I got close to 70 - I was really expecting it be 70 and I'm quite disappointed. Is there anything I can do, like getting it remarked?

    Translation:

    "I'm not good enough to score highly in tests - can you give me a higher mark for no reason?"

    You could rationalize the situation bro. Ask yourself, If I got one mark off 70 for coursework, does that mean I'll be scrubbing floors in the local chippy? And the answer is...Maybe. At the end of the day its what you do with your qualification that counts. An A's an A bro, a B's a B, when people start talking about high a's, or high b's, you KNOW their stationary is their best friend.

    BRO.
