Practice Feedback

I got my practice mark back to do. I have mixxed feelings about it. I got 55 which is a 2.2 which i feel under normal circumstances this is not a good enough mark, however at the time of the unit i spent alot of time at home because of a family illness which turned into a bereavemnt. I applied for imitigating circumstances and provided themwith emails me and alison echanged as to things i had missed or wouldnt be attending. They told me this wouldnt be strong enough evidence and if i could provide either a copy of the death certificate or order of service from the funeral. I was really shoked especially as it was difficult enough but i provided the order of service to be told that wasnt evidence enough. I was disgusted if im honest. However i managed to get my work done. Not to the standard i would normally hand in but i did and was suprised how much i had actually done. I agree with the feedback but feel i did the best i could under the cirumstance. From now im just going to have to work twice as hard though to make sure that doesnt effect my overall degree mark.
