Luckily I put the thread in GC, so it was relatively free of bollocks.

smart move 
I'm on for a 2:1/2:2 at the moment, although truth be told I couldn't give a fuck . Signed my life away on a graduate placement contract this morning, so as long as I graduate i'm not fussed .

I got a 2:1 with Honours. They say that's the best to get - if you get a 1st, you don't have a social life but if you get a 2:2 or lower, you spent too much time partying and not enough working.

Well I'd love a 1st, I got a 1st in my 2nd year and in most of my assignments so far this year.
I think will dissertation will let me down though.
I would still be happy with a 2:1.
And I do have a social life

I'll be happy with a 2:1, overjoyed with a first.
Anything less than a 2:1 after all the work and affort I have put in this year, then there will most certainly be the UKs very own Virginia Massacre on a north east campus.

Handed mine in today, only to face a 3 hour lecture on 20th Century Literature at 12.00. On a lighter note the pub beckons. I had to laugh though, when i handed mine in i got a littel yellow card which said "congratulations, you've handed your dissertation to the Department of Humanities. Well Done!" and it had a little star on it. I asked "do i get a sticker too", the woman didn't looked at me like this... but i found it funny

I know mate, mine was like most peoples introductions! Problem was, cause of the word count I had to go straight into the case instead of adding some padding round it 
I quite enjoyed doing mine

I had to do a mini-dissertation for my BSc (Hons) in Applied Accounting ( ) through the ACCA and Oxford Brookes
Provided I pass I will get a 2:1 (grade determined by average exam marks)

Prioritise mate, diss may be the most important one to get in depending on the amount of credits. Just get your head down for a week and get on with it, I managed 6,000 words last week and I still attended classes and did almost no work in the evenings after uni hours, so it can be done! Good luck!!!
