Hey on the OCR one what did people get for the First question with the equation and calculations just wondering?

omg, i cannot remember, i don't even want to remember becuz i no that i got most of my answers on the maths questions wrong. I completely 4got how 2 do all the equations!

[michaelbenson]

Dont ask me why, but at our college they insist that we must take GCSE General Studies, and that only during A2 can we attempt to take the A-Level. Really speaks volume of how the college in general views our knowledge and academic ability, the examination for this year is on global warming - such an ambigious and rarely covered topic in the media that i am sure we will all find anything constructive to say about it. :P

Does anyone know what AQA modules we have on Monday? I heard Ive got two, apparently.

[just_me.xx]

Tomorrow its AQA Unit1 - culture,morality,arts and humanities; and Unit2 - science, mathematics and technology.

[lapsaJ]

Thanks. Any idea how long they are?

[NickiM]

I have "Aspects of culture" today!

[Dark Fury]

I've got Cultural and Social Domain (OCR) today - anyone else?

I don't know much about it, what are people looking at for study?

1 hr 15 mins for each exam.

I have that and scientific horizons. Which means nearly 3 hours of exam :|

[NickiM]

Scientific horizons isn't too bad...although it did have some dodgy questions. On my paper it had:

Why do people who live on main roads have fewer friends than those in the country?

And this thing where you had to work out the number of hedgehogs living on an island.

I got those exams today as well!! I don't really no much 4 it either- i don't ave ne books to look at. So I'm just lookin at some past papers.

[Dark Fury]

Crap, i dont even have those!

Do you know which one's first?

[Stefan_M]

As the papers are the same length, our school usually allows us to select the paper that we would like to do first.

For anyone doing OCR, here are a couple of past questions (the essay ones)

-- Cultural --

- 21 May 2003 -

3. (a) Briefly describe what you understand by the term 'faith' in the context of religion [10]
(b) 'If a belief cannot be proved it has no value or importance to the human race.' Using examples, examine the validity of this statement [40]

-- Social --

- May 2004 -

2. 'To say that animals have 'rights' is grotesquely sentimental.' How far do you agree? [50]

If anyone has anymore to give, then please share them with the rest of us. A couple of hours to go!

Stefan

[Dark Fury]

Cheers for that bud, now i know what frame of mind to be in for it.

[NickiM]

How did people find the Edexcel Aspects of Culture paper?

[tomdav]

How did people find the Edexcel Aspects of Culture paper?

I found it good, I think I did pretty well. The Science one was slightly harder though...Science isn't m strong point. How did you do?

[NickiM]

I can't really remember the science one, I did it in January!

I thought the social perspectives one was the easiest one.

[tomdav]

Yeh so did I
