Yeah I just checked mine too, woo pass!

I got a credit for my 'imaginative approach to the development of the argument' and for correct referencing, but everything else in my effort was merely mediocre *L* I knew it was a pile of wank but oh well, it's not made of fail!

Hahaha dude my essay was about 3/4 of the wordcount and not all that coherent. I was totally just hoping to get a high enough fail that I pass the subject! But whee, this gives me hope for Power and Change, which is my other under-count shitty shitty effort. *phew*

Heh ditto, I think I got to 100- 150 words over the minimum limit and just stopped. It was just an incoherant rambling mess... I think the best part was the endeding :D I did the PE of Music and I think my summation was something along the lines of "Recording companies should have started iTunes etc 10 years earlier instead of just suing Napster and other p2p's. They had the gun and now they're blaming us becuase they shot themselves in the foot'

...how the fuck did I pass????

Ha, same, I seriously did this in two days before the due date, and most of those two days was spent staring at the computer screen in horror. Copyright: I based most of my argument on Thomas Macaulay (http://www.baen.com/library/palaver4.htm") and then just added bits and pieces in a feeble attempt to work in as many sources as I could and mention the town meeting as much as possible.

Yup, I had something else due on the Monday so I did that over the weekend, and wrote CIE on the Tues/ Wed. I didn't have a tute on the Wed as my tutor was away so that helped, although I did have to have it finished and sent in by 6ish because Wednesday night is pub trivia... go priorities *facepalm*

Yeah I think everyone's schedule was like that - friday, monday, tuesday, wednesday. CIE was last, I was alll out of juice.
