So can you all nag me to make me work?

I got a 29% while on drugs (legal ones) & the lecturer said I might just scrape a pass on the EMA

So I need to blast it; I have today to do 2500 words

So nag me please?
TIA

What course are you taking? I wish you lots of luck, Im currently doing an OU degree course and because of my illness struggle to concentrate, but am still passing.

Get on with it woman!

Jeeez you done two at once? No wonder you struggling. You should have taken one at a time.

KatyMac · 27/03/2011 11:01

There was an 8 week overlap Sad & I'd have missed months of separate studying

OP posts:
KatyMac · 27/03/2011 11:02

Never mind B628 finishes on Wed & the other carries on until October

OP posts:
KatyMac · 27/03/2011 12:04

Had visitors & an unplanned break SmileSad

So back at it now

OP posts:
SnapFrakkleAndPop · 27/03/2011 12:06

Small breaks are good.

I have 168 words, what about you?

FabbyChic · 27/03/2011 12:07

I bet it is hard work, admire you for taking on so much at Level 3.

Mine finishes in April and the next one doesn't start until October, but I'm going to get a head start and start studying earlier as I have all the course material already.

KatyMac · 27/03/2011 12:35

FabbyChic I am a fool

Umm no words but I completed 3 activities and started 2 more

One of the activities is a 1000 word version of my 2500 word report (iyswim)

OP posts:
FabbyChic · 27/03/2011 12:44

I don't do any of the activities, I read the required information and write my Essays from there.

Im a bit lazy though, and real apathetic, I aim to just pass, lazy really as I could do so much better if I put more effort in.

KatyMac · 27/03/2011 12:55

Activities = 30% of mark

snorkie · 27/03/2011 12:56

How's it going? Ds has a TMA to complete today too so I may as well crack the whip at encourage both of you.

FabbyChic · 27/03/2011 12:57

Im not on a Level 3 yet, and I don't have to do activities to get any % of the mark. Im still doing Level 2.

heliumballoons · 27/03/2011 13:16

Ah KatyMac I feel your pain. I've just sent my EMA this week (3000 words) and have another TMA (1000 words) due for the new course (I'm doing 30pt courses that cross over) due this Friday. Hmm. I'll get started tonight though!!

If it helps my last TMA for my course I've just finished got a bit waylaid - basically everything that could go wrong did in the space of 6 weeks. Sad. I rushed to do it but being TMA 03 I had some background knowledge. I got my highest score ever on a TMA. Confused. Maybe theres something to be said for the last minute rush. Grin

Oh and don't be demoralised by 29%. I got 39% once on one and still passsed the whole module - with only 50% on the ECA. Smile
My scores are much better now but I think the more you do assignments the better you become at blagging writing them. Grin

Best of luck.

heliumballoons · 27/03/2011 13:18

Fabby and katy what are you both studying?

Are you doing level 1 then 2 then 3?

I have completed level 1 but have this year taken on 2 modules (30pts each). One level 3 and the other level 2. I wouldn't recommend it as the one I'm now doing doesn't finish until October when I'll have to start the next one.

FabbyChic · 27/03/2011 13:20

Im taking Psychology, can someone explain the concept of compare and contrast cos I just can't do it.

My latest mark was 46! boo hooo.

FabbyChic · 27/03/2011 13:21

Sorry helium, Ive done a few Level 1's, and a Level 2.
