I got my last essay back this week and was really disappointed. It was a pass but my lowest score of the entire course. I have not yet had the result back for the multi-choice, but I am less concerned by that as it has little impact on my overall mark.

However after an initial meltdown and feeling totally overwhelmed with what to do next, I had a good chat with the tutor on the phone and am feeling somewhat better. It is still very confusing and unclear but I do have something to work on.

I spent today doing further literature searches (into PTSD of course), but although I have found some interesting articles, I have not yet found what I really need. I am looking for rating scales that are used to determine peoples attitudes to PTSD. There is much written about other disorders, and there are scales to determine the diagnosis of PTSD, looking at symptoms. There must be something out there already for what I want.

I will continue again tomorrow.

I am 54% through this module.

This is sooo awesome, @Lucycat! And don't worry about whether or not you'll use it in a professional capacity. I have 3 degrees and I'm only "officially" using my Master's in my writing. But I still would not have given up the ability to learn that the other degrees gave me.

I got 2 more assignments back this week. One was 76% which I was very happy with. Then I saw the next one - a multiple choice quiz - I got 96%! That really pleased me, although the truth is as a multi choice you have the time to look up the answers before selecting one or more as correct. Still a few more assignments to go, but I am now two thirds through the module.

Well done @Lucycat, you should be very proud of yourself.

@Lucycat - well done on your amazing results , your hard work is paying off.
Im pleased to see that you have moved forward from your little ‘blip’ - you deserve to be proud of your achievements.

Very well done @Lucycat
Great that you've studied something you find fascinating too :)

Well done Lucy!

although the truth is as a multi choice you have the time to look up the answers before selecting one or more as correc

Yeah but, you do still have to have some idea of the correct answer and usually there are at least two answers very similar but distinct. One being correct and the other being wrong!! So don't minimise your success - you deserve the mark. Bask in the glory :hug:

 

[Lucycat]

So don't minimise your success

Thank you. That means a lot.

In eighteen days I will get the result of this module. I will either have a degree- or the opportunity to re-submit the final essay. I only need it to get 40%. I have not bothered about the results of previous modules, but it is so different being the final one.
