    Hope all went well for the few other 'OUers' on this forum.

    What's a grade 2? Is that like a 2:2 in old money (i.e. a tulipe result).

    DimPrawn BSc 1st class.

      WHS. OU courses are so dumbed down that anything less than a distinction means you're a loser

        No it's equivalent to a 2:1. It's only my second module in a six module course and my first exam in 22 years so whilst there is scope for improvement, I'm still pleased I can even write for hours on end.

        BTW it's a damn sight more difficult than overblown computer science degrees.

            Well done.

            I'd love to learn some latin as it wasn't part of my comprehensive curriculum. If only life wasn't so busy.

                Hey, you know the word 'curriculum'.

                  Sadly the lack iof permie status means I can't con ^H^H^H^H justify the expenditure to my manager to pay for me to do the next module on the course I was doing. My Co.'s training funds need to go on industry relevant stuff for now.

                    Well done G. Are you going to write 747 control systems in Latin now?

                    PS Agree about DimPrawn being BullSchitter 1st class. I have a 1st and would not dream of mentioning it.
