he'll get a statement of marks
and when he finds out he got 85% he'll be back here to whinge about how his 99.95 can only be 98.45, and he won't be able to do medicine and law at melbourne uni... when medicine and law are what interest him the most... a likely combo, the human body -> 5000 page books about the legal system.

What the hell is your problem?


So what if he has higher standards than what you consider to be "modest"
                               

He can be as dissapointed as he likes, this can be a place for people to vent and express themselves

Also, law and medicine is a choice that alot of students make, the two career paths have similar characteristics.

Besides, who cares what his reasons are for wanting to choose a specific course, thye only matter to him. If you want people to help you when you need it, you should show a little courtesy to others

By the way, i got a 41 in psych with an A in the mid year (i didn't get a SoM though)

[xox.happy1.xox]

Med was my no.1 preference. Law was no.2.
Why on earth couldn't I be interested in both treating cancer (I wanted to go into oncology) AND international law? Not everyone has as narrow an interest range as you do.


psychlaw, don't beat yourself up about this, if like you said you really did "literally no homework" then an A is a BRILLIANT effort and if you actually did work for your end of year you could probably pull a high A+ ... which could easily get you that 42

Imagine how interesting a Law/Medicine degree would be. That would be the ultimate degree for intellectual minds

I met a med/law guy at the law students introduction night.

He told me that he started med, found the work far too easy and relaxed, and therefore decided to take up law "for fun".

where did you get that screen shot from?

Its from a VCAA powerpoint somewhere on the site. I had it saved from a few months ago

What's the name of the powerpoint?

dude i got an A as well, and thought i had an A+ in the bag.. but at the end of the day not much seperates the 2 marks, and with a high A you can still get 40+... i hope for the very same thing as you.. but dont give up.. you're only in year 11 and that rash behaviour won't get you through year 12.

peace

When I was in year 11 I got an A on my end-of-year exam (and wanted an A+). I ended up with a study score of 38 and still managed to pull a pretty good ENTER and get into the course I wanted. When you look at the big picture, these little setbacks can end up being virtually meaningless later on. If anything, it should teach you the standard of work required to do amazingly in the VCE. Year 11 is the time to mess up, that's why most people only do one or two 3/4s (not that an A is 'messing up' in the slightest, it's more than what most people in the state can even hope for).

WHOOOT lol
Just got my statement of marks
I got 163/180 the maximum A...

Disappointing because that means if I got 0.5 of a mark more, its an A+
still happy though, hopefully I can get that 42

I can't believe its only 0.5 marks, worth getting it remarked?

[costargh]

Doesnt that mean one assessor marked you as 82/90 and one marked you as 81/90? OHHHHHHHHHH FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT lol

I dont think you can just 'get it remarked'.

[psychlaw]

lol the new annoying thing is that the questions I thought I got wrong (GSR one, Parasympathetic one) I got right

But the ones I was sure I got right ended up losing some marks there

In the artist question I only got 5/8 marks which is annoying cause it was such an easy question

[gfb]

Nice stuff there psychlaw. If you get an A+ in the Unit 4 exam, I'm definitely sure you'll get that desired 42 .

You are definitely not normal. Be thankful that you got that mark
