hot take but i think if your feedback on an essay is that its 'excellent' but u grade it in the 'very good' band you shld have to explain urself
#kt talks#got the lowest mark on my english essay since my first semester of uni and i am quite upset about it#yes it was still an A and it is ridiculous i am upset about it. but also its not and i am right#like the difference between 20 and 21/23 is HUGE when 21 is a first and 20 is a 2:1 (surely might as well be 17/23 if its in the same band.#thats mental??)#and YES i know its not and i need to shut up but also??? no i dont!! dont give me a 20 when your first piece of feedback is 'this is an exc#llent essay' and the word used to describe essays graded 21-23 is excellent#CONTRADICTIONS!!!!!#this essay was MORE THAN VERY GOOD and idc if its like a well your standard is clearly high so i am marking it to the standard of your essa#s and thats where it aligns on an essay thats already high. no thats not fair idc abt that i care about the numbers on the page which will#etermine my degree tyvm#and yes i am pretty sure overall in the module my mark amounts to a first anway bc other assessments. but as i said. I DONT CARE!!! WORST M#RK SINCE MY FIRST SEMESTER!!! THAT BORING ASS ESSAY ON A KEATS POEM!!
