I'm bricking it. x___x;;

The biology F214 paper didn't seem difficult, excluding the annoying respirometer question. I'm sure the grade boundaries were high and I made a few silly mistakes, mostly 1 markers but they still count! I need an A in that paper. I don't feel like I've flopped, yet I think that that's a bad omen. :C

AQA A psychology was a ~weird~ paper, I don't know what I'll get in that. They lowered the amount of marks per section, but I was feeling a bit funny/poorly in the exam.

It was CHEM1 :wavey: Hi there!
How do you think you did? :smile:


It was a strange paper! I think I did well on the hard bits...but then the calculations, I pretty much screwed it all up! Trust me to do that on the 'easy marks' :facepalm: (there was not enough time lol) :frown: Hoping I did okay though.

And yourself? :h::

Yes
Am looking forward to my AS French and German results (doing A2 German in the summer and finished A2 French last year and got an A) but nothing hangs on them as I finished my Spanish and Italian degree in 2008 and my MA in 2009 but I still want to do well!!

I'll wait for mine in the post as am working on Thursday anyway and have no other way of getting them. But again nothing hangs on it as I did them, and am still doing my German A-Level for pleasure.

Good luck to everyone else waiting on results!

I am just hoping that the grade boundaries will be v.low. Especially since it was a much different kind of paper, I doubt many first years would have expected that sort of a paper :s-smilie:
The anticipation is the worst bit, can't believe someone has to wait until Friday im having a hard enough time waiting until Thursday afternoon!
Dreading the results, I only have one exam to pick up (OCR F297 Business) but I don't think I did well in it at all, maybe two questions, the other two weren't phrased well.

Good Luck to all :h:

Meanwhile I have 7 to pick up and this depends on me going to university, scared as anything!
It's bad for me 'cos we get ours at 8:20 on Thursday. I have biology straight afterwards, which means it'll be 3hrs of results discussion. I don't look at my results until I get home and can cry in privacy/look at them with my mum.

Ours is usually just the paper, so I'll have to fold it up and shove it in my bag.

I think pharmacy is a great choice and I considered it when applying. I originally wanted to do biology but got more interested in chemistry at AS. I think pharmacy will be a good balance between chemistry and biology, especially if you're leaning towards biology. The course I'm hoping to do is basically pure chemistry with a biological options from a chemical standpoint. I also applied for Biochemistry and Biological Chemistry at Nottingham which has slightly different amounts of each of biology and chemistry again. It's all very confusing! :tongue:


Thanks :biggrin:
I'm the opposite of you in the sense that I'm recently leaning more towards biology. I used to love chemistry, but then our teacher left and the new one isn't do good :s-smilie:

Well I hope you enjoy your course :biggrin:
