sar's essay theorem #1

theorem #1:
this is the first in a series of theories about essays (hence the name)..

the basic premise of theorem #1 is that when you believe you've crashed and burned in an essay, it is more than a little likely that you'll get a high mark…roughly 76.5% likely to be precise..
however, the converse is similarly true… when you believe your essay is truly sparkly, it will invariably come back with a fail mark…97.6% in fact…

proof: my recent modes of reading essay… took an all-nighter to write total rubbish…came back with 2 marks off a first…

why? your guess is as good as mine. it's just the way it is.
sod's law or something…
