one of my module convenors has decided that i dont exist
and the two essays i handed in are imaginary. He has entered
0's for all my work. ONe of the essays which he claims never
existed is in my hand and marked at 55%. I graduate in July
but these bastards are making out I have failed when i
clearly havent.

It's so infuriating that they can't organise themselves
enough to properly colate my marks. I mean how ahrd is it?
You mark it you type it into the system and this Oxford
dimwitt has just decided "nope you ahve 0"

I am so pissed off with thier cock ups.

A lot of my department are on strike and refuse to mark any
of the essays weve handed in until it is resolved, and I
have a bad feeling that if they don't mark them by the end
of this term they wont ever. Which is something in excess of
200 hours of work wasted

No its the university of Kent, the most unorganised excuse
for a uni ever.

Well as i havent actually failed, theys imply have given me
the worng mark, i have to simply get them to sort the marks
out. I managed to get hold of a REALLY helpful lady in my
undergraduate office, i faxed her the marked cover sheet of
my first essay as proof that indeed did not have a mark of
0. Hopefully they will find my second essay, which i havent
recieved back yet and all will be well.

It makes me so damn nervous, i mean i don't need a good mark
but for my Job in Japan (specifically for the VISA) i need
to have a university degree. Stuff like this will not only
set all my VISA applications back but could mean i end up
failing through no fault of my own.

no longer the garden of england, now with the eurostar
express london to brussels, more like the patio of belgium.
