I have my final A2s now, including 1 resit. 1 complete so far, 8 to go.
AS and A-levels are piss easy as well. lol I ended up having 2 AS's and 4 A-levels... Though, I shouldn't really count French as an A-level...

Yea but doesn't having to do like 5 AS levels increase the work load in the first year?
I mean, doing 3 A levels was troublesome enough for me

Anyway, I wish I could go back and redo my exams with the knowledge I have now!
As much as I hated them, it was a great time in my life, as far as having fun goes. I miss school and college

Aww Ivion, poor old you

@Misa: I took Sociology too! It wasn't a compulsory subject so now I'm done with it; it's a pity cause I really liked it, I still don't know what I got on my last test which was on how poverty impacts in developed communities and differences in attitudes between belligerent countries.


everything is relative and contradictory ~

would you prefer to do that non-calculator paper or two 2 hour papers of algebra :P and my first one is on Thursday, but I'm not that worried i just have to remember to read the questions properly ( I normally don't but i got an A in the mock with loads of stupid mistakes so if we get an easy paper i should be able to get an A*, knowing my luck thats not going to happen). The only one I'm worried about is French I'm going to have to revise like crazy just to get B on that :P The only one I'm not really going to have to revise is Japanese i wish all the subjects were as easy as GCSE Japanese :P

Your school gets to choose GCSE Japanese?! Sooo not fair XD our school only gets a choice of French and German >.<
2 hours of algebra sounds harsh I'd be so bad at that...I hardly understand algebra at all XD I don't know why I'm in the top set for maths at all -_-"

Oh, and MissMisa, thanks
