- 69.2% average

- 4 module distinctions (70%+)

- 79% for the dissertation.

These stats mean I rank near the top of the class too!  Fantastic.

More than the numbers, the whole experience has been absolutely class.  I did not realise I would learn as much as I have; as much about myself as well as the invaluable business knowledge.

MBA = Massive Brain Accelerator

Bring on the party :)

With no chance to get my paper results before the Chinese class began, I was imagining spending the two hours of facial gymnastics (of which Chinese is without equal) completely distracted.  As it happened one of the lads was online.  Aha!  I could check via my.wbs.com ….

The obivious drawback of that being everyone in the room was now ribbing be and trying to look over my shoulder at the computer screen.  It was a painful process.

Very happily, I have solidly passed them all.  In Economics I even got a distinction, including my review of Land Rover so that has made me feel pretty good.

I can now look forward to the next set of exams (in about 6 weeks time) but more importantly, properly enjoy my birthday this weekend.
