No however (not tests) but in uni for assessments some people on my course have literally 4 months extra to meet deadlines because they've skived the whole term but it's ok apparently because they're dyslexic?
My final deadline was May 5th and they "failed" and have been given until the end of September to catch up because they were off. They weren't ill, they just cba and were hungover all the time. Really not fair. /rant |

YASSSS! In A levels. I can't at them expecting me to write 7 12mark essays in and hour and 15 minute kmt. And today we started A2 and the mock exam paper looks worse.

From what I gather most universities cap your score at 40% if you refer your work over the summer. |

True Marsh. Because there's only 6 of us in total they can't afford to lose anyone off the course so they're just handing them places regardless of their effort/grading. Sad really especially when those of us who are trying feel like they can coast by and graduate, knowing that in the design industry it's not about grade or uni it's about your "style of work", so they can do minimal and still "make it" it seems. Yes they may have a smaller portfolio at the end of the course but could still get picked up by a top design agency from just a single piece of work. Very frustrating.

That's it in design though, it's not really about your qualifications but the quality of your work.
