This is fun!
Well, it’s 1 week down and one to go. Placement has been interesting. I’ve now seen two births!! Woo! Neither I can write about right now because my hand is too sore to unstrap and type, but I have lots of notes and will write about them when I can. One was a ventouse delivery and the other a c-section so I’ve seen a variety on "normal" but no normal births. I have another week to go, and then a few days of study, a test, two exams and another assignment to do and it’s over for this semester. I got a HD (high distinction, 91%) for one assignment, and a C for the other (credit, 70%). I can’t get a straight answer from anyone as to why I can hand up two assignments and get such different marks. From the fact that some of my classmates failed the essay despite writing good ones and getting no feedback on what’s wrong, I wonder whether there’ll be moderation of the marks.
