Haha, fair enough. What sort of things did you study? Did you follow a similar thing to schools, or do something different.

For gcse I just did 6 subjects, because exams were like £120 a pop, before that I did normal subjects I guess, missed out on PE, drama, Chemistry etc.
And from Y10 I used GCSE books, before that a whole mixture

It was ok till I was about 12 when I absolutely hated it - it's no fun sitting at home all day working alone.
My mum taught me (along with my siblings), but when I was 13/14ish, I started working alone and only getting help when I needed it, by GCSE, it was 85% self-taught.
My mum dropped out first year of poly, my dad went to poly and he's a teacher (he didn't teach us though)
