Exams

So it's near that time of year again, exams.

Who's got some coming up?

I have 6 for AS levels. Two for History, two for Geography and one each for Psychology and PE. Not looking forward to them, it's suddenly hit me that they are coming up and I'm actually studying 4 hours a day! I know hardly anything for Psychology which is worrying.

 

The one thing I don't miss about being in education. Good thing with AS levels is you can always retake them, think i re-took all but 2 of mine. Learn a few dates and you can blag History.

 

I have 9 i think. 1 psych, 1 economics, 2 politics, 2 philosophy, and 3 critical thinking.

I did 1 economics and 1 psych in jan and got B and C. Am predicted As though, and i have done no revision at all.

 

I have my A2's this year.

1 Geography Paper remaining (did one in January)
1 History (Did Coursework for other half)
4 Biology (2 A2's and 2 AS retakes).

Kinda realising now how much work I have to do in the next 2 months... LOTS!

 

Just done my GCSE German oral, only 30 exams or so to go ... pleased the season is over so I can actually revise!

 

god i feel old

 

god school is ****

 

what you on about mongy

 

What an AS level and A2 exam? GSCE is all I recognise out of that lot :-[

 

I've got my 1st one a week today. F**k :|

 

I'm having a rectal exam on Monday. Not looking forward to it

 

you do gcses in yr 10+11, AS in yr 12, and A2 in yr 13.

AS and A2 count 50% each of the total A level.

 

do you go on study leave tomorrow?

 

We've been banned from study leave

 

ha. First exam R.E on Tuesday :yawn1:?

 

Only RE exam. Did 50% of it last year

 

Had a University exam yesterday in Multimedia. (no, i'm not a full-time student for those who might be confuseD)

 

5 gcse exams. although considering not attending the 2 for english as i've got an equivalent already, although i suppose it'd be better to have 2 passes

 

GCSEs barely count as exams. Looking back at my A Levels, I realise that if I had just put the tiniest amount of effort in I could have gone to a better uni.

I got a B in Maths GCSE with little over 30% if memory serves me correctly.

 

had to travel back to london to sign my cover sheet, they didn't tell me i had an exam which counts towards my final grade (science). took me 10 mins, 74%... piece of pish

 

A levels are all about jumping through hoops, a little bit of knowledge and technique.

PotGuy where you at Leeds Met? You seem to know the student part of Leeds I.E headingley, The oak, skyrack etc

 

They were much harder back in my day.

 

I've never heard this before.

 

:naughty:

 

I'm not at Leeds?

 

I managed to draw a detailed drawing of spiderman saving elves from a tree that the mystery mobile had crashed into during my last science module, coloured in and everything. Got a B.

 

In my Biology GCSE I answered the question name 2 types of cell as live ones and dead ones. I got a D

 

The 1st question on a food tech practice paper we did was
Name three special ocassions.
My friend put Christmas, New Years Eve, and Christmas eve. And got the marks

 

I did food tech gcse last year, so your mock test might have been the same one i did for my real gcse?

Its ridiculously easy, its 60% coursework, or at least our one was. Yet i still managed to get a B:doh:

 

GCSEs were the biggest piece of p!ss ever.

I didn't put that much effort in, only revised the night before an exam and got 1 A, 6b's and 5 c's. Looking back, If I actually put effort in I could've got a few more A's.

For those doing their GCSE's now, don't mess around in AS, start revising at the beginning of the year because if you don't it will come back to haunt you. AS is a HUGE leap up from GCSE's. In my opinion anyway.

 

i see the don, uea and my posts have been deleted

discrimination!

 

Couldnt agree more

Choose easy subjects for As too

 

Doesn't it depend what you want to do afterwards?

 

Mine is still there Mucca...
