i jus came home from skool today from a 3 unit assessment and realised my last page of the exam was wedged between my writing pad. after calling the skool, i quickly rushed back fearing the worst and though the maths head teacher took it she said she wouldnt get her hopes high but that i can only appeal. i swear to god i didnt cheat or realise until then and i did check my pages were stapled in wen i gave in my paper but i guess i didnt see the extra page. this is a page worth 10 marks. now i have to write a statement to the board of appeal. what do you think are my chances? ive already stuffed up my last 3 unit exam, is it possible to not do so well in your assessments and still get 95 or above?

yeh its my 2nd 3unit maths assessment that ive just stuffed up. ive done relatively well (average 90-95%) in most other subjects but 3unit counts most to my 10 units because im doin 4unit maths and the bulk of 4unit is 3 unit isnt it? i wonder if doin well in everything else will bring up my overall mark and uai? =\

i hav no idea how the appeal works, jus that i have to write a statement explaining why i handed in late n asking for consideration. im so down in the dumps, i feel like strangling myself for being so stupid and careless but i will try harder. im jus scared if i try hard it wont b hard enuf cuz that's at least 30% of my skool maths assessments ive stuffed up :( but thanks for ur encouragement neway elizabethy

hey don't get yourself so down!! i caused myself to miss abour 12 marks on one paper, and it didn't make much difference to my oveall rank. those marks are a small proportion of the test, which is a small proportion of the percentage the test is worth, which is small of the 100 your school is worth, which is then divided in 1/2. in the end it's not TOO much
