    Hey- I don't think you sound big headed. It's all about potential. I genuinely wasn't capable of 10A*s. But I think I could've got 7A*s if I put my mind to it from day one.

    I found Chemistry the best too. It's the only Science I stand the slightest chance of getting an A* in, but more likely an A.

    Thank you
    Thanks people like you will go far in life
    Chemistry is the most interesting, but advanced level physics is interesting too! I'm sure you will get it

    No problem...

    Ma français était terrible... Considering le fait, je peux faire ça pour a level... :L

    It really is! that's why I'm doing the AS early, but unsure of whether to take the A2 as it may be too much after good! Aim high I'll be annoyed with anything less than 10 A*s next year must sound big headed, but...

    You're not making excuses, I know people who know the content extremely well and end up with Cs, because they don't know how to answer the questions, chemistry is the best! with physics!

    Yay! Glad you think that, lit is more analysis which is where I shine!

    Thanks! You can have all my luck too swap luck
    That's just so good hehe I think you should go for it, you're obviously extremely able! Doesn't make you sound big headed at all, it's because you know you're capable of it, so anything less would feel as if you didn't prove yourself or do yourself justice, it's admirable

    Haha thank god But yes, very true. Ah I'm awful at Physics, but I enjoyed the lessons because my teacher was seriously so hilarious, going to miss him

    I'm exactly the same, hence why I've chosen it for A level as well as History. They're good together

    Much appreciated, yay

    What I think I will end up with

    Eng Lang-A
    Eng Lit- A
    Maths- A
    Biology- A
    Physics- A
    Chemistry- A
    French- A*
    German- A*
    Geography- B
    Music- C

    So 2A*s, 6As, 1B, 1C.
    For me personally (not including subjects I've already got a GCSE in) I believe I'll get;
    English language: A
    English literature: A/A*
    Biology: A*
    Chemistry: A/A*
    Physics: A
    RE (Half): A*
    Citizenship (Half): A
    French: A
    Food Tech: A/A*
    So 4.5 A*'s, 3.5 A's

    Ah thank you. I am thinking about doing Chemistry for A-Level. It's a toss up between that and English! I agree Physics is interesting too, but Chemistry I just seemed to click with a bit more!
    Your French is pretty good don't worry!

    Thank you if I ever said that in school, oh, the terrors id get, people would be cursing at me xD but they wouldn't hate me, my friends would laugh and be okay, my acquaintances would be like whatever... Enemies, well.. The names, good thing I have like one or two of those thank you though it's easier to get more A*s due to.the amount I'm doing! 15 GCSEs + Welsh Baccalaureate, I'll hit gold somewhere

    Physics at GCSE is a terrible thing, I must say, but it gets so much better at A Level and further in! awww, will you miss a lot of people?

    They are very good together! I take it your a humanitarian I'm a science person, with a strange love for essays and analysis, but hey! I am NOT complaining

    I generally have good luck, so it should be beneficial for you hope your luck is just as good!

    You are now on my calender to ask about on 23rd August

    Good luck, I hope you get what you want! I have been minimal with my predictions though, to avoid disappointment. I definitely won't do worse than what I have predicted myself, can only get the same or do better!

    Thanks, you too, I'm not as worried about what I'll get as much as I am worried about getting below what I deserve. My school are jokers, in March when we were getting our January exam results, our school mixed up everyone's science results. I was told I got an A* in physics, A in biology, B in chemistry, but when they realised it was wrong, I was told I actually had an A* in biology & physics and an A in chemistry, so I hope my school don't do that again.

    Well if they did, it would simply be jealousy at its best haha You're very welcome! But regardless of the amount, it will still be impressive because you've got a lot of subjects to revise for! So if you think about it like that, it could be more difficult. You definitely will

    Shame I'll never get to experience that then! And yeah of course, but then there's a few I can't wait to never see again I'm so lovely hehe.

    In terms of ability I am, which kind of contrasts with the fact I'm aiming for veterinary medicine, but oh well You're just one of those rare people who are good at every subject haha

    Oh well I'll be keeping that in mind, let's hope it works me too!

    Yay I better not disappoint now haha

    Aww, thanks they just say I don't appreciate what I get... But if you're not happy with it, why would you? that's true! it'll make it look better if I get them all to a high standard you've given me a good perspective of it now but I've sat stuff early so by the end of this year I'll have five GCSEs anyway, and next year I have the sciences and simple ones left (like art, business so it lightens the load) thanks! you've already hit gold

    Yeah, thats true what a levels are you planning on, to go with lit and history? Ahah, dw, we all feel the same

    Veterinary medicine, very nice but also very competitive hmmm... I'm terrible at PE!!! As for art, I'm predicted a B which will be a miracle if I get it... Music I don't do, but I love performing and singing but physical ability is my WEAK POINT!! Chinks in my armour as they say

    Yep! lets hope!

    Anytime And that's unfair as everyone has their own personal goal! Precisely Hehe and you will, I'll ensure I ask you what you get both this year and next year. I know I'll be ecstatic for you Oh that's really good, you'll manage pretty well indeed then! No way but thank you

    And Chemistry and Biology I'm going to work so hard over the next two years, I want to do well and prove I can do it, sick of being looked down on and told I'm not intelligent enough to do them True

    Hmmm, I need to get a lot of work experience. Oh god, PE...torture :P Such a silly subject anyway, at my school it was simply a time for all of the horrible, bitchy girls to pick on anyone they felt like. Gr. and well art is just stupidly strict so I wouldn't worry. You may get lucky and surprise yourself so don't worry I am horrific at music, but yeah it can be fun. As awful as I am, singing is really fun Haha me too, I'm a twig though so it's allowed ;D

    Art - A/B
    Biology - A*
    Chemistry - A*
    English language - A*
    English lit - A/A*
    French - A
    History - A*
    ICT OCR Nationals - Triple Distinction
    Maths - A* (already achieved)
    Physics - A*

    Oh it is ;D haha exactly the action I was thinking of. Good

    Yes And I don't know yet, I'd like to but I know I'd probably be more likely to achieve the required AAA minimum that I need. We'll see how I manage this year though, and what I get at AS

    That's true, I do have some nice ones of course! Haha aww, sounds scary Just don't get stuck in the middle...not a nice experience hehe I'm not bad but I wouldn't say I was good either, you're probably far better! Hmmmm ;D

    Yes yes! Aww And I was gonna say haha! How do you manage to fast?!
