Original post by Pokémontrainer

Cambridge, LSE or UCL here. XD Of course, primarily Cambridge!
I no longer have my Ruby game card :frown:

and it was my favourite. :frown:

Oh gosh, my hand-eye coordination is quite embarrassing, I can't play tennis very well! XD

I also lost my Ruby game card a long time ago! I still have Sapphire, though :biggrin:

. Are you by any chance going to get Omega Ruby?
It's nice to see that there will be fellow trainers at Cambridge (hopefully) :wink:

. What are you planning on studying?

I feel exactly the same but I keep thinking that I worked really hard for my subjects although I might have made minor mistakes in some of my papers the very minimum I deserve are decent/good grades.
I am sure you'll agree(wanting to be a Doctor) with the effort you've put into this...you deserve good grades.

Exactly!! I want to be able to get the grades i deserve for the amount of effort i put it :/ i'm just...blah at the moment. I'll feel more excited when the days close in

I'm not sure! I'm going to be really busy at A-level because I'm thinking of doing five subjects or an EPQ+four A-levels plus I'm learning French atm. :frown:

I'll have to find time for it though; Pokémon is life! :cool:

Fingers crossed! :biggrin:

I think I'm doomed, haven't decided subjects and which sixth form to actually go to! :O

Come to our sixth form! LOL. No, seriously don't, we really don't have many options to chose from... Do you know what subject you're gonna study at uni?
I have vowed not to do an EPQ. I don't think I need one for my course and I can see the months of extreme stress ahead of me. I don't really want that, I just wanna do my favourite subjects :biggrin:

.
EPQ is great if you do it well though.

I know the exam boards,but some of them I don't understand. How do you know what to revise? The specification is way too long on the internet.

Posted from TSR Mobile

The spec gives you everything you need to know for the exam, so really, at this stage, you can only use them to see what you need to know... Once you've been to taught it you could use them as a way to revise. :smile:

For me its quite different, as some exams from year 10 also count as separate qualifications!

Year 10:
AQA Core science: C
AQA Additional Science: B - Honestly I didn't spend enough time revising for those exams.

The year 11 exams were as follows:

AQA Biology (Towards triple award)
AQA Chemistry (Towards triple award)
AQA Physics (Towards triple award)
AQA Mathematics
AQA iGCSE Language
AQA iGCSE Literature
Edexcel French
Edexcel History

BTECs: OCR Nationals in Business Level 2 (Distinction), BTEC ICT (Distinction*)

So what to expect? Mostly aiming for B's or higher. Most importantly, I would prefer to have an A in Mathematics, an A in Biology, and an A in Physics as for A-Levels, I will be doing Mathematics, Physics, Biology and BTEC ICT Level 3.

That sums it up for me; I am absolutely bricking it for results day!

Good luck with all your results everyone :smile:

I don't have great sixth forms to choose from either tbh, not one of them offers religious studies, and I love this subject. :frown:

I want to do law- highly competitive! :rolleyes:

I love having the option of an EPQ because I can choose the topic! :biggrin:

But I have heard previous EPQ candidates did not do well at all! :O I wonder if there is a word limit though... That could be problematic. Sigh, the lifetime struggle between myself and words! I did say to my teacher "You cannot put a limit on art." once. Not impressed. :colondollar:

Soooo anyone awaiting music results? It's like the one exam for me where a B would be a godsend that I'd be ok with :biggrin:

I think an A let alone an A* would be considered a miracle and I'd instantly achieve sainthood :tongue:

Yes! Which exam board?

Everyone seems to have really high predicted grades, wondering when you were given them because I've had the same predicted grades since year 7... Is that weird or?
