Woo-hoo!!! Good job :D I'm glad all that hard work paid off...
 
WooHoo! I am very happy for you Laura, I know howgood it feels to do better than you expected...sadly this last semesterof college was my worst:(...I got straight B's which wouldn't be badexcept that I need a 3.5 to stay the president of the honor society, ohwell at least I have a semester to make it up!

That is so neat that you get scholarships for doing well. I don't thinkwe had anything like that really when I was in highschool in the U.S.With further education costing so much now-a-days I think it isimportant to help out students who strive for academicexcellence.

Congrats again!

I really do believe it's the teachers fault that my gradewas so low in the first place. She gave us excerpts from old English30-1 Diploma exams and took them in for marks! She should have beengiving us old English 20-1 exams and taking those in for marks instead.I find that really unfair since I got 39% on one because I didn't havea clue what the question was asking.

She's a doctor of English (seriously) so she's very well educated andis a really hard marker. I ended up getting plenty of 60's on essaysbecause she marked so hard. I really did try my hardest but I didn'tseem to improve until I stopped caring. Once I stopped caring the wordsflowed freely and it made sense.

I didn't believe I did a very good job on my English in-class essayjust because I didn't think the examples were described enough but itjust goes to show that a different person marking will make a hugedifference.

I'm pleased that my mark is exactly the same as it was at the end of English 10-1 and didn't fall at all.

Thanks for your congratulations. I'm very proud of myself and that Imanaged to pull myself out of the hole before it was toolate.
Wow, talk about a tough teacher. Last semester Ihad College Comp 1 and I hated it. The more I tried to do well andwrite good essays the worse the grade I got. Once I gave up and wrotewhat I would call really boring essays I got good grades! Darn commaskick my butt every time!
That is an awesome scholarshipprogram...do you have any plans for college yet?
