Lol hahaha OP, you have got to be a classic example of a whiner who has an inability to admit he or she is wrong. Kids, don't learn off this guy!~
If anyone can give me some decent reasons why I am wrong then I will accept that I am wrong. So far all I have had was a lecturer that just said:
"You made an assumption that was incorrect. That is why you got the question wrong."
Yeah, that's some great explaining.
He also said that:
"Again, I would emphasise that the examples given in the lecture slide and text book start with pre-tax earnings, so you were incorrect to assume that the profit number was post-tax."
There is just one problem with the above. The example in the textbook clearly states that the figure is before tax.
Then he came back and said:
"Admittedly, the question could have been more precisely worded. However, you are the only student who has noted an issue with this question, and as such I would not conclude there is a general problem which requires additional marks to be awarded."
Can someone tell me how that is relavent? Just because everyone else in the class was just following the herd blind and memorising the textbook example does mean I should be penalised. Majority doesn't rule. If anything I should get a bonus for being the only person that was paying enough attention to pick the mistake. Apparently if only one student mentions the problem, it must be fine.
Then he just came back with his final smartass email.
