Thanks everyone. Its always nice to get a bit of support. I'm sure I'll feel better about it after a while, but for the moment I'm just sick of the whole thing.

Another wonderful question - "Does Hume's conception of justice as artificial shed light on Aristotle's problems fitting justice into the doctrine of the mean?". Sounds innoffensive? Well, then consider that I know Hume, and that I know Aristotle. I've got good marks on both and done all the work the course guide apparently considers necessary to take the exam and get a good mark in it. And I had to blag it, because that question is just out of nowhere. I phoned up a friend who studies philosophy to a slightly higher standard than me and he assures me theres no intellectual tradition for comparing the two. There is nothing to base your answer to that question on...

Ah dammit, now I've done it again. Rant really over this time. Thanks for the hugs. [img]smile.gif[/img]
