Why bother trying at all if this shoddy effort would have got 100% if handed in 2 days before? Not that it is rubbish...but your effort was slim was it not? If we're late by even a minute the maximum we can get is 40%...which by the way is the minimum grade for a pass. Pure madness. Congrats...may as well carry on working and sleeping eh? :p<br /><br />Laura x<br />http://firstclassramblings.blogspot.comLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13165892635546256828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439247020096758087.post-40206241991860884852010-12-19T07:54:12.130-05:002010-12-19T07:54:12.130-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13165892635546256828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439247020096758087.post-72966543561308601822010-12-16T19:30:16.236-05:002010-12-16T19:30:16.236-05:00I'm also a perfectionist, & I always think...I'm also a perfectionist, & I always think my papers are shit.

If they don't demand your best work, who will?<br /><br />I'd rather get an earned C than a meaningless A. If I know I can skate by with minimal effort, than I will do so. <br /><br />Took dozens of teachers to reinforce this lesson, and one good teacher to correct it. <br /><br />Remind me to buy Dr. Bob Washut a beer when I see him next. <br /><br />Caleb<br /><br />PS oh yeah- congrats on getting your paper turned inCalebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17056314139651782511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439247020096758087.post-89680927847960545692010-12-16T11:06:08.962-05:002010-12-16T11:06:08.962-05:00Why thanks.
