The gcse kids have their own thread, so this is ours

Had biology today, not hard to be honest, but the AQA course is pretty crap.

How many exams do you guys have? I've got 12

Wise.

I have two this week, S1 and Electronics.
S1 I am nearly done and for Electronics I will probably get around the 95% mark. I could get half marks and still get an A overall this year.

As for next week, C2 and Computing. Really need to step up revision for C2 especially, after half term just physics and programming. I am hovering just past the A mark for physics but Have not done much revision, as for programming I have done no revision and I am on a B.

Good luck, I have 22 hours of studying next week to do so by the time it comes to C2 and computing I should be just as good as I am at S1 and Electronics.

Also tip for S1 students, STATISTICAL models are very likely to come up.

Total: 6, how come you have 12? Further maths + Another A level?

15 exams for me.

Had Biology today, could have been better also could have been worse.

How is it even possible for that many exams? Seriously did you fail every module since AS?

Starting with General Studies on Thurs, then C1 resit on Friday... busy, busy, busy.

Yes, well nearly every single module

If I was retaking everything I would have 18/19 exams.

I really doubt this is possible unless you are superhuman.

Well I've been revising for about the past two months as I have 7 exams, starting tomorrow. They are Physics units 1 and 2, business studies unit 2, media studies and computing units 1 and 2... fun fun fun!!!

Do well in physics and that's all you will need in life!

Judging by your username you do some sort of job involving physics and/or engineering, if so, what?

Biggest fail I have heard on this thread, you can't just get into a university with one A level regardless if it's A* or A.
Pretty much the truth is if you do well in further maths, physics and maths you are sorted for life.
