    Re: Hello...
    I have testophobia which is a fear of tests/exams so I find exams hard and indeed very terrifying.
    Once it was so bad that in a maths exam I forgot my own name! I didn't fill out my name and carried with the questions. 3 minutes later I remembered.
    Good luck!

    Nah...I don't want to do BTEC. I was thinking of becoming a surgeon but now I have a strange urge to be a clinical psychologist

    Basically a psychologist who works in hospitals. Hard to define.
    You know you have to study for like 12 years to become a heart surgeon!! :eek:

    Re: Hello...
    I typed in what's and it autocorrected to that lol.. cool.. I took maths, English lit and lang science nd additional science. French, RS, art, history and humanities. Everyone in our school has to take a language and humanities. RS is better than I thought, and the exams aren't that hard, just did my first RS exam in march and it wasn't too bad.. It's quite an interesting subject...but then again our teachers a legend!! :P and cool turkish isn't offered at r school, that's an interesting language..why choose that? Like what made yu choose it??
