I obviously got accepted into Birkbeck’s Earth and Planetary Sciences Program since I got an email today to log into the Student Portal and verify my information and pay!
I still have no idea which courses I will be taking or if they have accepted my LSU course in Geology for credit. I need to get [...]
I got my final grades for Geol 1001 and Engl 1001, only on the online grade sheet so far but Geology is an A+ and English a C.
I am done with all exams, English 1001 and Geology 1001.
They were sent back yesterday afternoon with DHL, I just hope they didn’t forget anything or there is any other problem.
I hope to get my grades for Geology end of next week, I don’t really care about the english anymore as long as it is [...]

Just with Algebra but still. I got the result this week, 64 points. I checked in the REA book there is a conversion table from points to grade and this would be A. On the result sheet it just says three bachelors credits.But anyway, it is done, finished, over. Finally.
I have also been finishing up [...]
Still no news from my Algebra exam.
In the meanwhile Geology and English, especially the latter, are dragging themselves towards completion. I need to send all assignments before the 25th, then I’ll have 30 days to take all my exams.
And last but not least, I got an answer from BBK. More about that in another post.

I finally wrote my Algebra Exam last Thursday, now I have to wait some 2-4 weeks to get the result. I felt quite good, no too bad problems in the beginning. And even though there were a few interruptions, besides the general mess the ICDA knows to produce, I did get done with all questions [...]
