Wow that's really unfortunate :frown:
Because the highest you can get on foundation is like a C or B.
That must suck
You must've had a crap teacher... Feel soo badly for youuu :frown:
Surely you (or your parents/guardians) had to give consent before they put you in foundation???!!!!
::rageface::


We only got told on the day of the exam because on our exams sheets said both higher and foundation, and that was supposed to be our motivation to try get good grades in class :angry: oh well, Hopefully i'll get a b overall but i think i did worse in the foundation exam than i should have because i was just fueled with rage,oh well :smile:

Don't you mock BTECS and Workskills is a subject and it will very well prepare you for the workplace,which many subjects fail to do.How can you like Latin and hate Spanish because they both languages,that aren't too far apart?

Just because Latin is the ancestor of Latin doesn't make it very close at all. The closest word I've seen in the two languages is "dinero" in Spanish and "denario" in Latin, which basically means "money" (a Roman coin denomination, technically).

And I'll gladly mock BTECs like I mock theists, thank you :ahee:

They are still very similar in format and they aren't like Chinese,with symbols,so that means they will be roughly the same as French and German.BTECS are equivalent to GCSEs,as proven by Ofqual,who ensure this.

Academic equivalence =/= employability equivalence.

And of course they're very similar in format, Spanish is descended from Latin! Almost every language in Europe has similar grammar and alphabet. That does not mean that a) I am indebted to Spanish because I enjoy Latin or b) The two languages are similar at all.

Latin is NOTHING like Spanish, merely inheriting it's basic grammatical conventions, alphabet, and some words. If you want a Latin-like language, learn Italian. French and Spanish are extremely different. Many languages use words derived from Latin (and Greek!). German is not a Romance language, but it still has Latin influence.

EDIT: Oh, and just to add, look at Old High German then look at Modern German. Yeah.
