omg geography must be awkward then, or is it ok?

It's okay.
The teachers care about me more often. Not like the other teachers with a lot of students. -.-

smaller class sizes are good. i used to be in a class that had 32 students for geography, they realised it was too much so they split it in half which was better
Dont remember numbers for AS but all were fairly large at around 20ish people except IT which had 7, in A2 though,
Smallest: Physics (5)
Largest: Maths (9)
French A2 - 1 - me.
I win haha.
AS Physics has only 6 people. But my sister last year had only two in her class for Further maths.
Smallest for me was 2, but the other person was often absent, so just 1.

Then in year 13, the first girl left and another girl joined the class - so again, we were 2, but she was absent more than the first! So 1 really.

That was for A Level Spanish, back in 2007-2009.

I thought teachers weren't allowed more than 30 pupils each or something?

I had about 30 in my Maths A-level and 3 in my Spanish A-level... and we had one-to-one speaking lessons every week.

Ah, those were the days.

Omg. Why is geography in your area so popular? xD
In here, there are no students doing A-level geography next year.
Maths and sciences are really popular.
