I sure do!
My uni just put the official grades up online, I got a Credit for my writing subject and a High Distinction for my IT Project. It was JUST enough to push my grade point average up to 5.0 which means not only do I have a degree but I have a degree with a credit grade!
Its particularly good considering I was dicked out of a genuine mark for 12 subjects. The 'previous study' credits for the stuff I did during my diploma at a different college only counted as a Pass instead of being awarded the distinction grade that most of them actually were.
I'm really quite surprised by the 5.0, I was expecting there to be a tiny rounding thing that made my GPA something depresingly close like 4.99
The important thing is that I should now be assured an offer of doing my Masters next year so I can continue with my plan to become the most qualified person in the history of my family, mostly just because I can!
