the craziness of this is gonna go over a lot of people's heads bc the uni grading system here is weird but i not only just found out i passed my resit (the one i had like. an actual meltdown about) BUT i also averaged second year with a 2:1 overall. for a degree i hate and am bad at. upper second class honours. i genuinely have resigned myself to an inevitable 2:2 AT BEST with this degree to the point i didnt even LOOK at 2:1. i had to google it to check i had the grade boundaries right bc i was so sure ME of all people couldn't have scraped that. what the fuck

#im literally shaking. i feel nauseas but in a good way. what the fuck #like second year is worth 1/3 of my overall grade and i got a 2:1. a TWO FUCKING ONE. HELLO #yeah i know it's not a first i know there are people who would view this as a disappointment i have FRIENDS who would be gutted with a 2:1 #but i genuinely am just trying not to FAIL this degree. that's how low my standards are. and im 20% above failing #it's not by the skin of my teeth like it has been for TWO FUCKING YEARS NOW. it's not even a 2:2. it's a 2:1 BABY!!!!!!!!#shouting my nut off this is INSANE #UPPER SECOND CLASS HONOURS??? THAT'S LITERALLY GOOD?? LIKE UNIVERSALLY NOT JUST BY MY LOW STANDARDS??#IF I TOLD PEOPLE I OVERALL GOT A 2:1 IN AN ECONOMICS DEGREE THEY WOULD ASSUME I WAS /GOOD/ AT IT #THAT'S HOW CRAZY BANANAS THIS IS. HELLO. oh here comes the imposter syndrome HOW DID I FUCKING DO THAT #hella goes to uni
