    Good in just about everything aside from Chemistry, which I have sort of given up on and really couldn't care about.

    Anyway, what subjects did everybody take?

    I took

    (Forced to)
    Maths
    Statistics
    English Lit. & Lang.
    RE
    Physics
    Chemistry
    Biology

    (Chose)
    History
    German
    Latin Lit. & Lang.
    Business & Economics
    Russian
    O_o. you do/did THREE languages. Well done. The latin poetry and lit. are <3. Please tell me you're keeping German/Russian to AS.

    Yeah, but I think I'd enjoy Latin more if we had a better teacher. She is, as my mum said, 'a bit dippy'.
    And I probably will keep German and Russian for A Level. I'm enjoying both loads at the moment, and our teacher said he'll try and arrange a trip to Russia, possibly an exchange. Should be fun

    I know. The days when you weren't spending every second trying to finish coursework or revise. I'm happy that we raised some money though, but I'm annoyed that my school is doing nothing for Japan.

    Poor Japan, they were really hit badly with it all. Guess we should be feeling happy for ourselves that we don't live on a plate boundary

    What GCSEs did you choose to take?

    Latin teachers are a bit.. erm... excentric. Mine was as well.
    You're keeping german. :eek:*huggles you* The one think I'll reccomend you to do is to NOT spend the time between your last GCSE german exam and going back to school/ college in september doing no german. I did that. Bad times. Still getting told off for my word order being pants :/

    The Btec's just a bunch of units to complete; most of which are rehearsal diaries to fill out that state what you've done every lesson. I was telling my teacher how bored i was with it and he promised to tech us grade 5 theory in class time so it is a really flexible course. what do you do in GCSE?
