Good Morning,
I'm new to this forum, but thought I should try consulting with students who are facing a similar predicament to my own, I seem to have little idea of a future career, and mental mind games have been my forte over the summer, due to the fact that I am still deliberating whether Maths A-Level is a good option to take, especially when Maths is not my strong point. My reasons for taking Maths I shall disclose, as I'm also taking a Computing A-Level, something which is complimented and provides a sound foundation to Computing.
I'm worried because my background in Maths hasn't been exactly strong. In my GCSE Maths class, I was set 4/6, the bottom level of the eligible students taking the Intermediate paper, this is due to the fact that my SATS results were relatively poor, recieving a
6.2. I dedicated myself wholeheartedly to the subject for the next 2 years, and a Pilot exam was offered to our school, enabling me to access A and A*, up to the exam I had been working at High B Level, teetering on the Grade boundary between B and A, after self teaching myself the higher tier stuff, as best that I could, Seeing as provision could not be made to help me
, I did the exam and am now, as you all are, waiting for the results. Considering the above, would it be wise for me to take A-Level maths? Considering I spent numerous days trying to drill key concepts into my head for GCSE? ...and the fact that my mind isn't exactly adapted to a logical mindset? Is it possible you could help me out here?
(I know it's a little cheeky pleading for advice on a first post, but i promise i will reciprocate by leaving advice to others who need it!)
Thanks in advance, Guys.
Bernard.
