Anybody whosays a subject is a complete joke has obviously not done it, or is a moron.

If Computing is a "complete joke" why do you need AAAA (higher than Dentistry for 5th year results, and close to Medicine) for the Course Dave is studying, and ihave applied for?


Yes the subject can be really easy for some, but really difficult for others.

Everyone has their own strengths and weakspots.

So before you saysomething like that again think about that!!!

'Shaun' gets bogged down with mathematics; the other solution is clearly and obviously the better. I was awarded 59/60 for my coursework, so I need (140-59)/140 to get an 'A'.

His way of working out what you needed was for the old higher, the new higher is a simple 200 instead of a complex 130 marks

For the 2008 exam the ACTUAL exam is out of 140 and the course work is out of 60. So you would have to adjust this to suit.
