15 August 2013 A-Level results: Discussion thread - results day is here!

Sociology from biology? wat.

And mathematicians have a God complex because it's the hardest subject, and to be an exceptional mathematician requires a severely intelligent person. We have to be honest with ourselves, they are the best. All praise tho mathematicians! It is them who we adore!

So what did you do then?

I don't have time for further maths but it does look interesting... Maybe I should have chosen it, I just didn't expect core maths to be so easy and boring. I picked the wrong subjects and I realized that after my AS year because I had somewhat of a late aptitude for the sciences.

But at least I didn't go for the humanities, OH GOD THE HORROR!

What's wrong with humanities? Is History a soft subject in your opinion?

Chemistry, physics, maths. But in terms of what I was actually studying, chemistry and physics. I think we can all agree that A level maths is in dire need of a remodel. Perhaps more integration and some geometry? Seriously, the most advanced question in core 3 june 2013 was sohcahtoa..

Them subjects being History and Sociology,

lol errr this thread is the same thing

I agree with you, but you would make a better case if you didn't say stuff like that.

Clearly you're not that good if you couldn't handle FM on top of that.

I actually find History effortless and Psychology ******* solid

I already told you that I made the wrong decision when picking my subjects. I had a friend a year above me who was constantly doing further maths homework every darn day. I just couldn't be bothered with that ****. I know a lot of further maths from my own interests outside of school anyway. I don't need a measly A level certificate to show that I can pass *cough* ace a standardized exam designed for most people. Don't be silly. I was also expecting physics to have some decent maths.. Oh how wrong I was... A levels are poor.

2/3 of my A levels are humanities. My university course specifies that they prefer humanities which is WHY I chose them. Them subjects being History and Sociology, 2 subjects which have a rather large amount of content. So explain why humanities are so bad?

3/3 of mine! Wooooo humanities

I'm assuming that means you found psychology hard?

I love telling people that I took maths, physics, chemistry, psychology and english lit AS Levels...and that psychology was the one I found hardest
