    So, do you guys think we can make it to mark IV? If we continue at this rate, we definitely will make it!
    We will make it to mark V tbh :cool:

    What?:confused:
    How could they do that??!
    My leaver's assembly is the end of this month-- but still...
    They can't just kick you out like that!
    I get why they did it (we're a boys' school..) every year the year 11s wreak havoc across the school if we're given any more than a day's notice, so they told us when we're off 5 minutes before they let us go. :/

    Probably English Literature, Maths, History and Psychology. You?
    You've got an interesting range of a levels. I'm taking English lit, history, French and religious studies.

    The -1 bit is to find the angle of SOHCAHTOA

    I'll give you an example of a SOH triangle.
    If you wanted to find angle x in a right angle triangle you find the side opposite (O) to angle x and the hypotenuse (longest side) (H) to it .

    Now you do SOH

    so S= opposite/ hypotenuse

    But since it's an angle you do Sin-1( opposite/hypotenuse)

    Make sense?
    yh theoretically i can do it! it's wen we get the diagrams lol but i havent done one in ages. after the weekend i'll do some practice and let ya no wen i get stuck thankss..

    Which language are you thinking about?
    I know I'm early but I'm too excited for university, I've got about 10 prospectuses and I have a decent idea of where I want to go ahaha
    I'm thinking about doing German. Just depends whether I still like it next year.
    I'm more excited about next year. Getting to do subjects I enjoy, being able to drive Uni seems so far off.

    I had my Leavers assembly yesterday, didn't shed one tear sadly But I did get emotional when I said goodbye to one of my bestfriends. All the girls in my school wore 6 inch heels I'm just thankful for my wedges and we went to tinsel town home to America burgers and milkshakes it's really great. Did anyone have their Leavers assembly and do you really think you'll keep in touch with your current friends?

    I had mine on the 18th. I started crying when they put up a presentation of pictures from over the years with really emotional songs, then we all sang we are young at the end by fun which was awesome but sad! I think I'll definitely stay in touch, well me and my best friends are all goin to the same sixth form!

    what are you doing over summer
    Working mainly, need to save up for trips, camera equipment and generally, earn money! I'm going to London at the end of August and need to plan some time in Belgium too. Other than that, maybe visit a few shows and spend time with friends!

    That's the good thing about A Levels, they give an indicator of what you'll enjoy on a deeper study level
    Independence in general! Can we drive at 17 after getting lessons or can we only legally drive at 18?

    We aren't offered economics, only business studies. Quite a few of my friends have enjoyed business and I have a friend who is interested in engineering
    +1 for maths and physics!
