An email I have been waiting for

At 3.30pm today, I received an email from my course coordinator for Advance Digital Communication. This is an email I have been waiting since last Thursday after viewing my exam papers. Why is this email important to me? The following paragraph from the email says it all :

I can confirm that there was an arithmetic error in partC of your final exam paper. You now have a total mark which is just on the borderline of the 4/5 grade line. I am going to make a case for you to be upgraded to a 5....but at this stage cannot guarantee anything. I hope to provide you with more news early next week.

This arithmetic error which is 2 marks matters to me very much because that makes me 0.7 marks off a grade 5. This in turn will pull up my Grade Point Average(GPA) from 5.25 to 5.375, 0.025 short of a second upper honours. Currently, I can only pray hard and keep my fingers crossed while waiting for another email from him. Hope I can really get a 5 for this module.
