The Results are in...

Finally got my results this morning. Apparently there had been some delay from Lancaster but alls well that ends well and I'll graduate next Wednesday with a First Class BSc Honours Degree in IT.

My overall weighted percentage was 76.78%, so pretty good if you ask me!! This would have been better but for one module which I only scored a 58% for. This was a single piece of work and I thought it was OK. The relevant tutor has been emailed for feedback! Is this typical of me to be so picky and to immediately zone in on the negative aspect?

On closer inspection though, I'm 'well chuffed' with the 88% for Distributed Systems, especially as that module included exam, written assesment and presentation. This was the subject I struggled with most so maybe I over compensated by putting in more effort (and worry).

Other highlights are an 86% overall for Corporate Technology Strategies and an overall 75.40% for the dissertation work. So over 70% in 9 out of 10 modules of 2 years is pretty good but that 58% tried to drag my average down right at the end.

What next then?

CV updating needs to be done and I can stop putting expected grades on job applications but for now it's roll on Wednesday...
