Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13i have 12 i think!(Original post by OllieWolly)
Ouch
I've only got 9 after half term! I got most of them out the way beforehand! And yeah.. It just turns out that opting for french turned out to be the way forward
And I guess it was okay.. There was a question about a guide dog on the reading paper that I didn't really understand but turns out that no one understood it
And I would've gone had it been organised by the school and had I had anyone to take with me! Erm.. We're going to Italy and Germany I think
And I'm into pretty much everything too.. Although I do tend to prefer Indie/Rock stuff.. I've been listening to Creep by Radiohead quite a bit.. And a lot of Arctic Monkeys as well as Muse
What are your favourite songs/artists? And oh yeah
They'll spot the link straight away! I'll do a geography degree, focussing mainly on music.. That's bound to work
so nearly half half! it's always reassuring if you can't do something if noone else can do it either i find! i always fear to be the only one, and other people to be like, "god, what are you taking about, that was so easy..." that sounds pretty cool! if only you had my great german knowledge
i like that too actually, i forgot to mention! i had a big phase where i was really, really into the arctic monkeys and muse! right now, i'm really into ed sheeran, i keep listening to his songs! you may even convince the lecturer the way to teach geography is musically!

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13The school's not everything! Only 7 people from our Sixth Form managed to get into Oxbridge last year- an all time low for us! Geography sounds really interesting(Original post by OllieWolly)
Very original!
And you must've been glad! I'm sure you'll end up there if you go to a school like you do
I'm hoping to end up on Cambridge (fingers crossed) even though I know that's extremely unlikely
And I'd like to study Geography (mainly environmental geography)
I'm sure you'll do fine and get in to Cambridge! Most people underestimate themselves
what are you taking for A-Levels then?

I have a total of 15 exam, in which 7 would be done by the end of this month starting this monday!
Music is sort of helping me out to de-stress

I'm sure you'll do well in them though! And least I'm not the only one that thinks that then.. I hate it when people come out saying how easy it was and I'm sitting there thinking "That wasn't easy at all!".. And oh it would come in handy! I've got the two German words I remember though.. Yah and Classenzimmer (I have no idea why I remember that).. And woo! I LOVE Ed Sheeran too.. My hair's slightly ginger and I'd love people to love me like they love him instead of making fun of me for being ginger
If I'm lucky I might yeah! Who knows.. They might just give me a degree and let me teach it myself?

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13Mine consisted of NO revision whatsoever!(Original post by xoxlovelifexox)
SO.MUCH.BIOLOGY sums it up! even though i seem to have procrastinated a fair amount! how was yours?
I had a good day out with friends
I'm going to do all y revising tomorrow
we have a 2 hour Biology revision session at school tomorrow anyway!

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13Only 7?! And that's low?! I think a maximum of like 3 people managed it from my school in a year! And yeah I do enjoy it(Original post by Dandaman9999)
The school's not everything! Only 7 people from our Sixth Form managed to get into Oxbridge last year- an all time low for us! Geography sounds really interesting

what are you taking for A-Levels then?
Medicine sounds good too! I'm taking Biology, Geography, Further Maths and Music
(Alongside general studies which we have to take).. You?

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13
I came back from tuition and I feel completely shattered, I honestly felt as though nothing as been done but at the same time I just want to go to sleep and wake up in the morning, but enough with the depressing note I felt today was good, Is it ok to still apply to colleges because recently I found a really intresting college that i might want to go to?

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13Which is exactly why I haven't contributed much to the conversations today(Original post by PrinceUpsb)
I feel like TSR is dominated by English Literature today, specifically OMAM, and a lot of people seem to be with AQA. Also quite a few posts on poetry... Haven't seen any on Great Expectations
on my own
I hate English!

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13Ohh gosh-- a MASSIVE good luck to you!(Original post by xoxlovelifexox)
i meant i have 12 after half-term! i have 23 in total in which 2 have already been done! yay! i finish like 5 exams in the next week, it's mad!
music is always good, i'm actually listening to some ed sheeran right now! soothing!
I thought 15 was bad enough
I have 4 exams this week starting on Monday, and like 3 the next.
By then all English/Business/Citizenship is completed!!
I listen to music when I'm extremely stressed out to calm me down a little, even though my parents are constantly telling me not to stress out
Good Luck buddy

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13exactly, it's so demoralising! i'm sure you'll do very well too! Mr. I am predicted 13 A*s!(Original post by OllieWolly)
Awww
I'm sure you'll do well in them though! And least I'm not the only one that thinks that then..

(I think it's 13...) I'm sure with your extensive vocabulary in german, people will think you're a native!
You could totally be the next Ed Sheeran! you can play the guitar and are musically able (to be taking AS music...) i'm sure people will be so touched by your music, people will dye their hair ginger!
anything's possible, why not?

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13Sounds hectic! How come?!(Original post by justanotherindigo)
Stressful/Crazy
I'm feeling a bit unwell now
English has been getting on my nerves!!
You?
you better be feelin ok for your exams! Don't stress yourself out too much - it might be due to stress!
I've given up with English now, so I'm not letting it worry me ^.^ -
Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13I hate it too haha! But I am so thankful to all the wonderful minds helping me with my work, times like this TSR is totally amazing!!(Original post by CharlieBoardman)

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13that sounds like fun! what did you do, if anything?(Original post by CharlieBoardman)
Mine consisted of NO revision whatsoever!

you're so clever as it is, like you need revision!

Re: Current Year 11 thread mark III (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13That's considered a failure by our headmaster(Original post by OllieWolly)
Only 7?! And that's low?! I think a maximum of like 3 people managed it from my school in a year! And yeah I do enjoy it
Medicine sounds good too! I'm taking Biology, Geography, Further Maths and Music
(Alongside general studies which we have to take).. You?
don't you have to take normal maths alongside further maths? Or is that just us? I'm taking Biology, Chemistry, Maths and History
and of course, the ever important general studies
I've only got 9 after half term! I got most of them out the way beforehand! And yeah.. It just turns out that opting for french turned out to be the way forward
And I guess it was okay.. There was a question about a guide dog on the reading paper that I didn't really understand but turns out that no one understood it
