Oh I see. I'm doing Macro now, and I find it quite simple...let's hope it stays that way through the exam. And yeahhh here's to hoping the multiple choice was strong for me.

And I bet you'll be fine, because the marking for the economics on edexcel seems to be quite flexible.


Should do! Macro is wayyyy more interesting, I love the fact that I can actually watch the news now and understand what they're going on about :tongue:

Fingers crossed! Yeaah, it does, if you know your stuff haha
If I don't get an A in this exam, bye bye uni :s-smilie:
I'm getting Psychology unit 1 back, everytime I think about it my pulse rises.. so scared
Oh yh I've been meaning to ask. When do the OCR raw marks to UMS grade boundaries get released? :smile:

Not looking forward to the results haha!

Most of the grade boundaries get published the day before results day (7th March) IIRC :smile:
Not really looking forward to it :erm:

You know there actually isn't an extra day to wait. If it had been chosen to release results every year on the 8th March rather than a day in the week (monday,tuesday,wednesday etc..) then therer would be an extra day, but this isn't the case!

It has been set to fall on the 2nd thursday of the month.
So the leap year day still takes a day, and we don't have to wait an extra day.

I'm so tired of having to explain this to everyone.

If it wasn't a leap year we would simply get our results on the 9th March, which would be a thursday (a day later as the 29th wouldn't have taken up a day). The same period of time would still have elapsed!

ok well sorry for that, but im having to add an extra day to my estimation, as i knew results day was on the 8th, but did not realise it was a leap year, i didnt think, oh results day is always on the second thursday of the month, i thought oh results day is on the 8th of March, oh thats a Thursday.

weren't *, im so tired of having to explain that to everyone

nobody asked you to, you dont have to be an ass
