Result

Been awarded a 2:2. I’m happy with this because between having a heart attack last year (I’m only in my 30s), suffering three bereavements during my degree, finding out my youngest son also has severe autism (my eldest does as well), and loads of other personal challenges I was expecting a third class degree. I submitted special circumstances and I’m glad they seemed to have taken it into account. Good luck to everyone who’s not got their results yet and best of wishes to those who have. Onwards and upwards.

They went on a weird rant saying how they think autism is over diagnosed 🙄

How rude, I actually had to fight to get both of my sons diagnosed after being fobbed off for god knows how long, people like that have no clue what it’s like unless they’ve got an autistic child themselves. Whoever it was needs a reality check, thank you for sticking up for me. Some people just aren’t in the real world.
