I just hate the stuff about forming and solving equations- I never get them right!😭Although we did a mock today and it was actually okay. I hope we get those simultaneous equations with 3 unknowns!!!😊
haven't even started looking at stats and mechanics yet had to re-teach myself all pure due to having the worst maths teacher in the school
I've harp pretty much teach myself the whole course, my maths teacher doesn't teach us anything. He goes that fast through topics and half the class don't even know what's going on 😂

I've got further maths on thursday. I hope we don't get f*cked over like the A level people! Im pretty good at Pure but Mech/Stats could literally fall either way. (pardon the pun)
Yeah I'm dreading it! What do you think will be on it?!
i think all the basics always come up you know genetic engineering, and the whole plasmid crap will be up, not sure what the six marker will be on this year though? Perhaps osmosis or natural selection??
that geography exam was... weird. i dont know how to describe it. part of me is thinking about how hard it is and the other part of me is also thinking about how it wasn't that bad. i remember thinking to myself 'dear god this is terrible' in the middle of it. i wasn't too pressed for time, although i do remember writing pretty furiously throughout.
there were a lot of questions that were vague, i agree. like the one on the graph and age dependency, well what age groups on the graph are the aged dependents? i didnt want to have to add up all of the percentages of both genders for age groups from 60-85, so i just did 85+. it would've been nice if they'd have told us. that aid question was weird as well. i had some stock standard benefits and drawbacks of aid to LEDCs, so I was able to remember two of those. we didn't have any place names though, so I just threw in a random LEDC.
at least that's geography over. both papers were pretty mediocre and honestly paper 1 still gives me PTSD. many found it easy but I think I kinda screwed up on a question or two :s my controlled assessment mark was really good though, so hopefully that helps out. little scared.
i still don't know how to feel. roll on biology and business studies (also along with the 5 other exams i have left after those) (im gonna commit)
**ALSO HELLO HISTORY PEOPLE:** im unsure if this is true but i heard from a friend in school today that the grade boundaries for history will be lower since we're the first students doing the new spec. im not sure if this is true (if anyone could confirm that'd be nice) but if is indeed true then that's great.
You have 5 exams, most of my friends have 3 or 4 and I'm sat in the corner shaking... I have 10 left. Ccea is killing me right now. Also, I completely read that aged dependent question wrong. I was too frantic and wrote about the whole graph. When I realised, I near died in my chair!
