Results Are In...

...and I passed the first year of my graphic design course! By all accounts, the markers were pretty harsh -- apparently everyone except myself and another class member had to resubmit pages of their folio -- so I think a Credit average is something to be proud of (a Credit at this school is between 81 and 90%).

Grades aside, my goals for this course were to increase my knowledge about design, increase my ability to use the various software applications and to come out of it all with an impressive looking folio. I think I have convincingly achieved all of these objectives, so am rather chuffed.

I'll be deferring second year until 2007, so that I have more time to spend with the baby when it arrives on the scene early next year. We're going to make sure there is plenty of petrol in the car so that we avoid a scenario like this.

Onya Matt. Well done. Actually, it doens't matter what your grades are if you achieve your goals and get out what you wanted from the course. Great marks are a bonus.

Thanks Hammy, yep I'm proud of how my folio looks and that's worth more to me than my grades.
