How many exams do you have this summer?

For what it's worth, it's more than possible. My last exam session for A2 exams, I had 16 exams I think (mostly because I'm stupid and picked to do extra modules). How much spacing have you got between exams?

Well I know that there is roughly 3 to 4 weeks between the AS retakes and A2 exams. Also one of the exams is an hour long.
 
Are we playing story topping here? I had 27 ;)

Having said that, I'd rather do those 27 exams again than have these 2 A2 exams :o

Really?

Also it sort of helps that I did the content last year, so I remember some bits very well. Also got my A2 practical ISA result and got an A :D

Thinking back, GCSEs really weren't that challenging. A2s aren't that much more challenging, but it's about what it represents. Doing A2s signifies my childhood leaving me. With GCSEs, at least there's some childhood still left :p

Haha indeed, making the most of this time while I can! :D
 
Ahaha...hahaha..... Only before I tell you how much coursework I've already had to this year.

2 group projects, one over a term, the other over the year.
5 smaller cws in a group over one term
5 theory cws
2500 word essay
2 other pieces of cw

at least your coursework was related to what your lecturer was teaching. two of my pieces of coursework, both of which were worth 100% of their respective module, bore no resemblance to what our lecturer had taught us in the previous term.

also, one of our pieces of programming coursework was so hard that even the lab assistants (all graduates and lecturers) had literally no idea how to do it. that was worth 100% of that module too. even when i asked for help from the lecturer he couldnt solve the problem i was having

as for coursework volume i've had:

one group coursework over the entire year, half of which we were never taught about (programming in C#, despite never having used it)
5 single term courseworks, 4 of which were worth 100% of the module, two of which we had never been taught (see above) and one of which was stupidly hard (see above)
~12 assessed lab practicals, all of which take three hours minimum
one single term group coursework where we were actually taught what to do and wasnt stupidly difficult :eek: (which is probably why i'd forgotten about it in my last post)
several smaller bits and pieces

so, slightly less hours, but i'd take your situation over mine any day
 
Three outstanding 2nd year university exams to do. The rest of that year is done, and these are the only actual official exams (i.e. in proper exam hall etc, not just tests) for that year. They're worth 70% of each of the three main modules, so no pressure!

Unfortunately I had to drop out last year due to illness so I never did them.
Econometrics should be fun...
 
I'm on an Access to Art (Illustration), so I have a final major project and exhibition. I'm looking forward to it. Self directed study :cool:
