It’s finally over!

GEK1541: Reproductive Health: What One Must Know

Optimistic: A-

Pessimistic: B-

Result: B+

Well! It turned out to be not so bad after all. In fact, if I choose to S/U this module, I could actually kick up my CAP a notch. But between a barely noticeable change in CAP, which makes no difference to my degree class (2nd Upper Honours), and the chance to boast that I made it through 4 years without exercising S/U, I choose the latter. Hee hee!

PL4213: Cognitive Neuropsychology

Optimistic: A

Pessimistic: B

Result: A

Well done me for a well-chosen module. The final exam wasn’t all that enjoyable, but I suppose I must have impressed the lecturer sufficiently. Either that or she was more lenient, since we’re mostly graduating students who need a final push.

Oh, have I told you how much I enjoy her classes, and what a great instructor she is? *butter butter butter*

PL4219: Advanced Abnormal Psychology

Optimistic: B

Pessimistic: C

Result: B+

Well! That wasn’t all that bad, considering my fiasco with the final sentence. Again, I suspect the instructor was a soft touch with us, as he knows we’re graduating students. Still, every kindness in this cutthroat academic world is deeply appreciated.

JS3213: Alternative Lives in Contemporary Japan

Optimistic: B+

Pessimistic: B-

Result: B+

Hooray, hooray, I didn’t screw it up, yay! My essay came back with a B so the final exam was probably good enough to make up for that - again, taking into account the final QUESTION fiasco.

On the other hand, though, this is the worst grade I’ve ever had for a Japan-related module.

PL4208: Introduction to Counselling Psychology

Optimistic: A

Pessimistic: B-

Result: A-

*dance dance dance* Hooray! Contrary to the trend of the previous modules, I scored an A in the continual assessment, which means my final exam was not up to par. But I will admit that I didn’t do as well on the final paper as I had hoped. An A- is still pretty good - it’s a triangle!

So, in the end, after 8 semesters of slacking and slogging:

CAP: 4.14

Examination Status: 2ND CLASS HONOURS (UPPER) <—– w00t!

I return to campus one final time on the 9th of July, following which I get to be an annoying old woman spouting reminiscences about the way things were “in my time”.
