The head of the psych department made my day.
I received my essay marks of my PSY111 mid-term paper and I am blown by what I got.
42/50. When I saw it, I thought "Oh okay I did alright. Usual me." So I got back to my seat and my friend said I did really well. I was surprised with a little "good" written on my first essay.
When Dr. Goh explained his marking scheme....that's when my heart leaped for joy and I was just. Ecstatic. And I thank God for it. Cause it felt almost unbelievable.
He said that those who got 21-23/25 for each essay are First class honors already and these people gave him more than he expected and it's what he was looking for. (What?!). That TOTALLY blew my mind. No way I was expected to hear that. He said Never will he give more than 23 marks for essays even if it was his own paper. All I remember was writing whatever came to mind. The question didn't have specific points to write on and no specific question on what should be in the essay. Reading back on what I wrote, it still seemed like I tried to dig whatever substance I can to elaborate on.
God, thank You once again for helping me!! I am so happy today because of this! though my lab report marks should be out tomorrow..*deep breaths* I still thank You for this one. Crazy stuff.
