OU Arts marks versus maths etc marks question

7 replies

wildstrawberryplace · 15/02/2011 19:25

I've noticed several people saying they are doing maths and that they got nigh on full marks for coursework (96, 98 etc).

I'm wondering if any people doing literature courses or arts courses are able to score so highly?

I have yet to break into the 90s . Someone please tell me it is possible.

I did for psychology TMAs, and in the exams too. Nominally a science, but essay-based.

I have got a 91% before. It was on my A215 course. I normally get around the 80-85% mark.

It's because with maths you either right or wrong aren't you? I'm sure it's not as simple as that but it gives me comfort--

I have studied maths and have always found the coursework easier than science courses that have required essay type answers. There is always the option of working backwards to check your answer or using mathcad.
However there is never the option of guessing especially in exams. If you haven't worked hard enough to learn the method then you are screwed.
