I would love to get 50%-70% and have it be considered fairly good marks. Also, what percent is considered a passing grade in Britain? Btw congrats on your scores!

[@AmberWoodMusicx]

would like to say that dropping out is also okay instead of forcing onwards. obvs is highly inspiring when people feel not good enough but my mental health was so poor and I was heavily depressed and my anxiety stopped me from doing so much including practical things, carrying on wasn't an option. my lecturer was mentioning withdrawal in about week 5, maybe less. if I carried on, I would've probably been putting myself in danger. I also developed Tourettes but that's another story. just from another POV that it's totally acceptable to drop out if it isn't for you. I'd urge people to have a go if curious and open minded, but don't push on if things are really not looking good or improving

[@thewanderingfoodie_]

I scored 67% in my recent uni exam. It’s the highest I ever scored. Highest in my class in fact. Final semester will begin somewhere in August. I hope I do even better this semester.

Do you study any American literature (besides poetry)? In the US, we have to study the classics, many of which were written by British folk.

[@shibangidas6929]

Okayyy United Kingdom's education system is tough because 70% is hard to get there. It's still living up to the great standards of Britain. Here in India if you brought home a 70% your parents would probably disown you
