I am!!! A huge amount!! After the maths exam (my last exam), I'm going to have a look at the A level specification so I can get a head start :smile:

Ah, I'm doing the linear course. I think I would have done the modular course as well, but only the top set gets to do that. I, on the other hand was really good at maths, but still never moved up :colondollar:

(I'm in second top set)

When you start off, AS maths papers actually seem to be much harder than GCSE maths papers. I struggled a lot at first with the AS past papers at first but then after a while, they became really easy :smile:

So AS maths is in some ways as hard as they make it out to be but if you practise, practise and practise, it should be OK :smile:

This was true for me anyway :tongue:

And no, I haven't looked at the AS F.Maths syllabus yet :frown:

Interesting. I plan to self-teach myself some of the course during the holidays by looking at examples/solution bank etc... Did you do that or did you have a good teacher? For my maths GCSE, my teacher concentrated on teaching the easier stuff for the less-able so he didn't have time to teach the A* topics so I had to teach myself everything :smile:

Oh, I'm also going to do Further Maths as well... Ooh, the trauma.. Hope I'm okay.

i was just wondering because for me right now in the midst of 12 more GCSE exams, naturally GCSE is on my radar but during summer i thought it might be interesting to get an insight into maths and maybe some further seeing as i'm taking it up next year so was wondering how it was! how long did it take you to cover AS maths? :smile:

Investigation, feasibility study, analysis, design, development, testing, implementation & evaluation is what my book states and what I have learnt. :smile:

I am, hopefully shouldn't be too hard. The past papers have all been pretty good.
I'll probably do the same, but I did Additional Maths this year so I've already learnt some of the A Level course :smile:

I have no idea how they managed to find out.
I remember that every time she used to teach us, my classmates would just stare at her stomach! :confused:

Really weird I know, especially when you go to a girls school!
As blunt as it may sound, I never used to really care whether she was pregnant or not-- I just need to listen in order to pass the exam (which was absolutely despicable).
I did AQA yep! Did you?
The craziness of Maths truly begins!!! :biggrin:

I love it so, so much! :colondollar:

Haha! that must have somehow got it out of her!! :biggrin:

Ohhhh, it's a girls school! It's the boys who say the teachers are fat so that might be why! :biggrin:

No, I totally see your point because you want what's best for you! :wink:

Yeah, I was with AQA too :/ Not too sure how it went!!
Haha! Yessss maths! I like it ;D

Aww, try not to be nervous, I'm sure you'll do fine! :smile:

Yeah I just did coursework and now I'm doing the exam. Was your coursework concerning Mr.Kamani and a year book and then you had to do like prom or a school trip database thing? D:

ICT? Thanks & good luck to you too! :smile:

yes I did! The school trip one our teacher made us do and the yearbook one and database one I did too. omg we went soo over the 25 hours i typed hundreds of pages so i was so relieved when it was done! what did u get?

i seriously do not no why i am taking ict next yr at Alevel either. this exam will b the death of me and then i will be ressurrected only to be killed by maths in a couple of weeks.
