Now that results are out, who's really annoyed with their exam performance?

I was the opposite.  For some unknown reason, even getting lower than a C+ for the exam, my GA1 and GA2 still stayed as A and A+ respectively...  They weren't adjusted.  Maybe everyone else in my cohort owned the exam except me?

Were they marked by teachers or examiners?


In light of my other English subject I was actually more surprised than disappointed. I actually expected EL to be much higher than English and now seeing my English result, my EL SS seems rather lowly in comparison.

Still, VCE is completely random and I've realised that feeling really confident in an exam can result in a SS between 39 and 50, really they both feel the same.

That sucks. I hate how much subjectivity exists in the marking of English subjects. :(

Bloody English and its subjectivity. Pulled down my ENTER score. It is pretty crushing for one of your bottom subjects to be a 49. A girl I knew got 4 50s and one of her 50s was in her bottom two because she didn't get 50 in Eng. I understand her pain...now...
