My Modern History mark, 93% (first in the year), confused the hell out of me. Considering that the final essay (which was worth 25% of the mark) was a horrific abortion of a last-ten-minutes rush job, I don't know how on Earth I did so well.

My French marks, on the other hand, were entirely unsurprising. 50% on the speaking exam? No, that mark wasn't foreseeable during the awkward, halting conversation I forced my vocal cords to produce for it. Not at all. However, on the bright side, I came second...

...in a class of three people, one of whom has French grandparents. My victory now feels somewhat hollow.

Eh, it's jsut more a of a girl subject in the same way that Software is. I know i'm stereotyping, but that's jsut the way it comes across.

Blah, the half yearlies are so depressing, i swear. I was doing pretty well untill the half yearlies came. Lousy piece of shit, and the worst thing is that they are worth the most so far. :burn: Congrats on everyone that did well, as for the rest... only the trails can save us.

I only just got the last of my half yearly results today:
Adv English - 85
Ext English - 62 <- wasnt worth anything
Modern Hits. - 73
Society & Culture - 85 (top)
General Maths - 79 (top)
Economics - 85 (top)
My Adv. english teacher says that I need to improve even though my overall is 89. She has this really bad habit of comparing me and the two other girls in my class to the only guy, "the golden child", who is freakishly smart. The teacher is one of those mark you hard so youll improve people.
Anyway all I can say is, thank god my ext mark didnt count.

Congrats everyone.
