Thank you so much :smile:

I've been very well thank you :biggrin: counting down the days until college now, I just want to start! :tongue: Yourself? :smile:


No problem :hat2:

That's great! :biggrin: Looking forward to college?! :tongue:

I'm good too thanks! I really don't wanna go back to college though, the holidays were far too short IMO. :u: I can't believe it's our last year though, it's actually quite scary! :tongue:

ahh going back to school Thursday, does anyone feel they could have done a little more with their summer? :redface:


I feel the same tbh :sad: I would have liked to finish my EPQ/PS/Biology coursework but I got none of that one :awesome: Still, should have them all done within the next few weeks hopefully :yep:
The first day back at college has been somewhat eventful.

Firstly, I somehow missed all three of my alarms (0500, 0530, and 0600), and woke up at 0700. Needless to say I missed the train in, and so was late for college. On the first day back. Bummer. Timetables were issued, and mine has become considerably worse when compared to the one I had in July. Days are far too spread out, disallowing me to go home early on any day whatsoever. Sigh.

Still, I somehow managed to be caught in a rendition of "I'm Blue", and the theme tune to Postman Pat when in Physics :biggrin: :biggrin:

:sad: indeed. I feel similar but in a different way, I think I focused too much on one area (guess what :wink: ).

I managed to get C3 & C4 done, work on my PS and work at the Bank of England but apart from that I really didn't do anything else. I would've liked to complete a few video games, go out a bit and do a bit more exercise than I did :tongue:
going in to enroll for A2 tomorrow.The hard work starts tomorrow

It's time for me to bug you for PS help again! :awesome: :tongue: :ashamed2:

Can you think of any other suitable phrases in place of e.g "furthermore"; "as well as this"; "in addition to" etc.? Any more help would be awesome :biggrin:

To give context, it's finishing off my ECs paragraph. I don't really want to use "finally" or variations thereof because it makes it sound like (at least to me) that that's all I can say/all I do, when reality I've only mentioned the most important/pertinent things :redface:
Sorry, missed this :colondollar:

I always find that word really hard to think of. Hmm... Moreover? Besides this? Likewise?

:smile:

Yeah! Now that I don't have to do chemistry, I love all of my subjects so I'm feeling motivated to do well :tongue: I bet I'll be complaining about all the work and the early starts after a week though :lol:

Aww great :biggrin: yeah I guess so! And I know, it's so sad! I've grown to love my school and teachers having been there since year 7 :tongue:

Ozil signing of the season, but they didn't need a midfielder. Manu on the other hand needed one. At least they could have played Shinji.

Olevels don't exist anymore. Khanacademy for science.

Ah fair enough, I really don't like chemistry anymore either. :dry: I wish I could drop it but I pretty much need it which is annoying! :tongue: Haha, I'm sure you'll be fine! :yep:

It really is! :frown: Just seems like yesterday I started year 7... :moon:

What course you're going to apply for. English

Your AS subjects (and grades if you like). English Literature - A, English Language - A, History - A, Art - B

Your A2 subjects (and predicted/actual grades if you want to). Same again, but I'm dropping Art. AAA for predicted/actual grades

What universities you're thinking of applying to and their decisions (when it comes to that). Oxford, St Andrews, Durham, York, Warwick



EDIT: Sorry, make that A*A*A* (aim high, shall I?)

Also, I'm doing an EPQ.

I'm still unsure as to whether or not apply to Oxford for Mathematics or Physics. Hmm. :wink:


:france:

Oh really? I thought you and your girlfriend Felix were going to study Physics together :rolleyes:

Yeah so much more, but I got lazy and there's nothing we can do about it now, just have to work harder throughout the year :smile:

I've finished my personal statement off and done a bit of research for the EPQ which is great.

Haven't done my english coursework draft though :/ Going to rush through it tomorrow since I go back to school on Wednesday. I'm hoping that I don't see the teacher when I go back haha.

3600 in a year :eek: there's only an odd 150 or so of us in my sixth form..


3600 in the entire college. Only 1800 in each year group. Well, at least, that's how many there were last year.
