had mine this afternoon. 2 1/2 hours, 15 MC, 10 marks HR, crime essay and family essay. MC was a bit hard, HR ok, Crime straight forward and the family option that I chose I could write heaps on.. overall i think i went ok, but not fantastic

i'm gonna email my teacher ova the holidays to find out my mark

i know i didnt come last - about 3 people walked in there had a look at the exam paper - answered some MC, short answer - i think, and just sat there for the next 1 3/4 hrs

one person doesnt evn bother going to class - ever - since she didnt hand in her assessment & she has "issues" with our teacher. wat a loser

I eamiled my teacher - and asked him how I did and also about the "consumers" assessment we were supposed to have in week 9, this term - but we are supposed to be starting famil when we get back.

Anyway, he said nothing about my mark, or the consumers assessment.

So I guess he didn't get the exams before we went on holidays. Oh well, I will have to suffer and worry until I get back to school.
:(
