Mad2, a t4/f!!!!! :0 Yes, that must be very rare - a stock beneath contempt. An aside... I knew someone - an acquaintance - during my university days who was awarded such a grade in a course. The general grading system runs from A to F. This scholar was awarded a 'G'. I have often wrestled with this grade over the years. Did he spell his name incorrectly on the examination booklet and left the pages devoid of his wit and knowledge? This is a true story. Yes I did once know someone such as this, a likeable fellow to be sure, and normal by all other accounts, alas I know not what became of him... Also during my Cambridge days I have also known young gentlemen who went into their examinations 'cold'. This is a euphamism for having done zero study, zero attendance at classes, zero attendance at College tutorials...in short 'nothing'. Yet, these gentlemen stode confidently into the examination halls to challenge their tutors and divine inspiration. Alas I am wandering, but I have many more such stories such as these... David
