What did your statement of marks say? What was the exact mark out of 120?

I think elaine means that she got 117/120 (58.5/60) and you got 109/120 ?

[costargh]

Yeh thats what I thought too. I told that to Nick on msn lol. But he got 110 not 109.

I want like mmm 112/120 minimum... just so scaling doesnt fuck me .
Probz wont get it though

[Nick]

Yeah I think she did mean 117, meaning that she lost 1.5 marks, not 3 marks.

[elaine]

yeah i got 117/120
ohhhh so wait, i didn't lose 3 marks?? lol that's what i've always thought (and have been telling people) until now!

but it said i lost 2 marks out of 4 for the HR question and 1 out of 4. or are those doubled as well?

[costargh]

Wer u cut u lost marks for that question? what was it? and was it a hard Q?

Hahaha thanks for confirming that. Yeah you would have only actually lost 1.5 marks (3 after doubling).

whoops my fault

lol this proves how much of an un-mathsy person i am, took me quite a while to get that lol

Wer u cut u lost marks for that question? what was it? and was it a hard Q?

to continue the bus man hijacking- no way was i cut! i was absolutely elated that i only lost so few marks, i thought i would've lost wayy more lol. i lost marks on the HR question and the SWOT analysis. the HR question was a hard one, but the SWOT was supposed to be a normal question i think. i'll dig up my statement to check it out.

why do i get the feeling that this thread is gonna get split lol

[Nick]

Who cares. Business is far superior to maths lol

[droodles]

i sense fight between maths heads and business management heads

i sense fight between maths heads and business management heads

me too

Why does my school (R.E lessons) try brainwash me into believing that capitalism is evil and corporations evil organisations with no heart and don't care how many people they kill to make money? They use a few examples to extend this belief to the entire idea of capitalism.

The movie we watched was called "Corporation" I think. documentary style.

I think this is the site for it
