Probably just the same.
Maybe I'll fail this year over and over and over and over again and take 5 years to complete my course.

I don't particularly know.

The worst thing
about having a genuine real excuse is the unwillingness to use it.

I'd probably have lied through my teeth when I was younger about being ill and not being able to do end of year exams, but now I've got a real reason I turn into the most stoic of stoics

There's a boy on my course who does dramadramadrama to get out of shit
I don't know if he's making shit up, has an underlying problem but is milking it, or is as bad as he says.

The latter is almost certainly not true.
You're just a better person.

I girl on my uni course ended up with a first
because she put in for extenuating circumstances because her boyfriend had dumped her. He dumped her 6 months before the end of the course and they and been going out for about 6 weeks. Her grades were worse than mine before they regraded. I'm bitter.
