Biology - free lesson basically :tongue:
Maths - need to do coursework :rolleyes:
French - we go to computer rooms now
Welsh - I'll work this lesson (normally I engage in wars and screaming)
French - as above

How do you fit so many lessons in a day? And frees :frown:


As for frees, its because I've finished my double lesson course on A* :wink:

****!!!! I'd hate that :rofl: woaaaah... We do 5 x 1 hour...

I know:rofl: but our school doesn't even teach english lit or triple science, rs, economics, we have next to nothing:s-smilie:

Mine didn't do any of those either, except for triple science :s-smilie: we did have business studies instead of economics, but due to timetable clashes, triple science students couldn't take that. Sucks because with english lit, RS and business/econs I actually could have made my A* tally look somewhat impressive :lol:

I only did 9 subjects because of this, it seems like everyone on TSR has way more! :rolleyes:
Wow. My school's pretty good for subject flexibility and options, unless you're an art-y student. My headteacher's trying to cut out art from the curriculum which, although I don't take art and have no interest in, I think is appalling.

For GCSE we offer English lit and lang, maths, food tech, textiles, product design, art, drama, RS, music, history, geography, business studies, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Latin, Greek (offered as an extra to do at lunchtimes), triple science, dance (offered as an extra to do in compulsory PE lessons) and ICT.

For A level there's -

Block A
Biology, English, ICT, maths, music, psychology.

Block B
Art, biology, chemistry, physics, RS, Spanish

Block C
Geography, history, maths (and further maths), psychology, RS

Block D
Business studies, chemistry, drama, English, French, history.

Block E - Enrichment
You choose between A levels in further maths, German, Chinese, dance and general studies. If you choose general studies you can choose 1-2 of these:
AQA Bacc, anthropology, CSLA, conversational French & Spanish and PE.
Last Maths and Spanish lesson gone :frown:

Quadraple maths :sexface:

I actually am supposed to have quad econs on wednesdays, but the teacher hardly ever does the full 4 hours... usually ends the lesson after 2 and a half hours :lol:

That's so much...

Business Studies is considered a viable replacement :pierre:

3 for me I think:biggrin:, as the school still hasn't communicated whether we have study leave in between our booster sessions.

Oh, I just feel at a huge disadvantage to other schools since we have a low amount of GCSE's to choose from (yet I wanna go Cambridge with 5 A*'s/ Double Distinction/ A B in Geography/ Pass in Business Studies)

Loads say I should just give up:frown:

IFS: A*
English: A*
Core Science: B
Additional Science: A/A*
Maths: A*
Geography: B

About 6. And 3 BTEC's:

BTEC ICT: Distinction* (Equivalent to 2 GCSE's)
BTEC Business: Pass (Equivalent to 1 GCSE)

I need to know some extra-curricular (specifically leadership stuff) if I want to do CompSci at Cambridge don't I dunno what:s-smilie:

Plus, being from the 56th worst school in the UK doesn't help either
[*derp* I researched it :colondollar:]
