Results Day!

Thats right, the impending doom that is results day is apon me once again. So here is the report:
 
62% : Computer Graphics
76% : High Performance Microprocessors
57% : Designing Algorithms
83% : Internet Computing
65% : Advanced Topics in Computer Science - Testing
 
So all in all not as bad as I feared it may be, and I am quite pleased as my predicted mark for the end of the course now works out to around 68-69% mark. 
 
This being only a couple of percent short of a first class degree is quite nice, and since I normally do better in the second set of exams I should (hopefully) be able to bring my average into the first class area. 
 
Anyway off to do some shopping, need to celebrate by purchasing a large apple pie.

David Cameron

I thought that this quote from the BBC have your say on the David Cameron cannabis debacle was particularly amusing, so I thought I would share it:
 
“Considering that cannabis causes memory loss, maybe Cameron DOES actually have some policies… he just can’t remember any of them.”

Summer Placement

Ergh, I have been applying for a summer placement at IBM and to get onto the program you have to get past a number of stages. 
 
So far I have got past the initial screening of my application and grades. The next step is an aptitude test which I took over the weekend, and I am now waiting for the result. So at the moment I am a little frustrated because a friend of mine took the test before me and they got a result in about 10 minutes, but I have been waiting for a couple of days. 
 
I hope this is a good thing and not just because I took it at the weekend…..
