So I have some thoughts on the whole idea she gets some sort of special treatment because she gets paid by the uni for some videos...#sponsored
All essays are marked anonymously so that rules that out. Also, I seriously doubt the uni would compromise their academic credibility to give some influencer a 72 instead of a 64 (for example).
Also worth noting the academic and marketing departments at uni are completely separate. It’s hardly as if someone from marketing sends an email asking a lecturer to bump up Roobeeee’s grade because she “represents” the uni!
It seems people are implying she couldn’t get that grade because she comes across as a little dense (lollll) in other areas of her life. For me, essays have a clear mark scheme so like how she got straight As at school or whatever she’s clearly studied them to the nth degree. If she uses her lecturers office hours, has nothing much going on in her life and spends 15 hours a day going over and over her work, I don’t find it that surprising she’d do well.
The difference is, the rest of us would party/socialise/have part time jobs/even travel during term and she does none of this.
It’s important to remember that the whole getting good grades is her BRAND. She gets paid indirectly for getting these grades— her YouTube videos and her online persona. If I was getting a full time salary to get 1sts at uni I’d make sure I got them too
So yeh, I personally don’t see it being down to special treatment!
