Do you still remember what you learned in your GCSEs?

I mean, they were mostly little facts.

I couldn't remember the content when I was actually sitting my GCSEs, let alone 2 months after :biggrin:
Not for most subjects, nope. Barely remember my A-Level subjects either anymore.

Do you remember your A Level Biology?
I think I would barely pass now! I remember next to nothing about my GCSEs. My a levels were only last year and there are terms last year that I knew and could recite quite easily and I have no idea what the mean now.
Basically you cram all the information into your short term memory to forget it as soon as the exam is done.

I did both
Yes I remember it. In the process of trying to forget the subjects I don't need.

ah i did those two as well ; got a c in the exam cause my teacher told us that ' we knew of mice and men ' and hence didn't really teach us how to write essays and we didn't even do a single mock before the exam either ....
Not really, only tiny bits here and there.

Damn, and I thought our teacher was a bit poor. :redface: To be fair she also taught us at A Level and did nothing while four of us just played cod5 at the back during every Wife of Bath lesson..
