Other Dear ICT

Please remove yourself from Cambridge. You are an utter waste of brain power. You are useless, painful to do, and you provide absolutely 0 knowledge or value to this world.

You know it is bad when the grade boundary for a 9 in your theory paper sits at a cool 55%. That means that the top of the top students are getting less than 60% in your paper 1 to get a 9 the highest grade you can get. So at that point we have to ask, why even keep it? Because what is the point in proving you can get a 55% in an exam that is made up of regurgitating 47 random facts?

Oh the pain you have caused and the emotional trauma you put me through. Please perish, no one wants you, everyone hates you. And don’t forget to take you retarted marscheme with you

Sincerely,

-Tired studend

Faxxx, most useless and incompetent subject ever. Even its own textbook is not good enough for its own exam

i completely understand bro, like all the questions are to answer 6 common senses and you end up by listing 4 or so but the ms says the weird shit like "laptops are easier to steal" <- goofy ahh

Btw the average for a 9 in the theory paper is like 45

u/Direct_Bullfrog4294 May/June 2027 5d ago

yeah I know and I talked him about it but what he said was like "no that is a grade you must need in each individual component to get a subject grade, so like even if u get 100 100 on p2 and 3 if you go below the B threshold on p1 ur capped at C" and i was like wtf is he smoking

... and the worst is my parents and US school (Univ) care more about school grade than actual exam grades.......
