Did anyone else miss their offer but still get in to their Uni, yet kind of want a remark on one paper because it wasn't what you expected?
I got in with AAA when my offer was with an A*, but all year round I've been getting close to full mark essays in Psychology and the exams went perfectly but I nearly got a C in one paper...It's just not right to me. A remark won't bring my grade up or down because it's too far away from either, but if it did go up a bit it would give me peace of mind that I didn't totally mess it up.
Anyway, I've asked for the papers back on that paper plus another paper in another subject where I got a D and predicted an A* in that subject, just to see where I went wrong, but not daring to go for a remark on that because it's only 10UMS off the grade below.
I know I shouldn't care because I still got in, but it's more for my peace of mind because I feel like I haven't properly achieved my goal of getting in to Uni with the grades I needed. I've just missed it and been lucky that they still want me.
