Need inspiration

Just got another lousy mark for my TMA and now whatever I do in the exam I will still get a pass 4 which is awful. I am not even sure I want to sit the exam after this.
Need someone to inspire me with reasons to continue please.

Are you still there ppd?

OK so a pass 4 isn't as good as you'd like BUT it's still a pass and another 60 (? not sure what course you're doing) points towards your degree. It's well worth gritting teeth and sitting the exam for those points I reckon.

Which course are you doing?

I am doing aa316 at the moment and have exam on 18th, also doing ad317 which is great. I will have finished my degree in October but this will bring down my final grade and I am gutted.
Having read over my tutors comments two days later i do agree that i got the essay all wrong and have to agree with his reation to it but i have lost all motivation to do an essay this weekend and study for exam. Feeling very sorry for myself and know i need to snap out of it.
Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Blimey, that's a hell of a workload to take on in one year - I tried 120 points last year but had to drop the second course because I was exhausted!

If your AA316 result pulls your degree classification down too much, you could go for the (admittedly drastic) option of unlinking it from your degree and doing another L3? Or would that leave you with an Open degree rather than a named Lit degree?

Sorry you're having such a tough time of it, but you are so nearly there now ... pat yourself on the back for getting to the end: I know how much work goes into getting an OU degree!

GOOD LUCK x
