    C2 and M2 were fine.. S1 and S2 were the bane of my life, hated them both

    If you want to sum up what you need to know for stats then take a look at the exam board specifications as they list what you need to know/be able to do and often have the formulae there too

    Erm, well I've always fancied a London uni and it's a course structure that suits me. Plus, everyone i've spoken to about it seems really positive about it
    fair enough what is the course structure like actually? Is it PBL?

    I'm alright with S1, it's just logs and sequence in C2 that I'm finding difficult :/

    yeah not going to lie i think logs and sequences are the easier topics, the real trouble is trigonometric graphs, functions and equations. That is no fun at all.

    And yeah S1 is pretty easy.

    It's intergrated, so a mixture

    I'm not thinking that I'll be a huge fan of PBL but apparently most medical schools are looking towards it because according to research the PBL students make better doctors as they're better at researching and presenting information etc etc.

    at first, i found them to be okay until i did the exam questions on them which were really hard.
    i don't like those either. just about managed to get through them...

    I got struck down by a cold again (my immune system appears to hate me at the moment) so I've been watching TV all day, and now I feel really bad that I haven't been revising
    :sick:

    Hey

    Would you say it was hard to get a job at Primark? I'm thinking of applying for a summer job there...
    umm. Well you're sixth form age, so you'd have a fair chance, they take on loads of people at a time you see. On the other hand, many apply because of this.

    I think because I was in year 11, it was very difficult to get anybody to give me a job, and even primark kept asking me my age, how long till my next birthday, blah blah. Since your school leaving age, it should be fine.
