Ooh, which exam?

Yeah, it's a good idea actually to revise now! Better than last minute I suppose.



That's probably why, if I did A2 French, I'd have had to have waited till 19th June for an exam!


That's pretty late, I thought humanities/languages were generally earlier?

General Studies :tongue: and Music! It's frustrating that my school make us do general studies :s-smilie:


Oh Gen studies is ****. And unis don't care about it tbh!

Music seems so hard

Not saying I'm going to revise now though, but I can see some benefits :colone: for my subjects it's way too early.

Maybe not biology but certainly the rest.

Yeah, not gonna do much work for it, I'm gonna prioritise my other subjects, but if I get a good grade, well hey!:biggrin: It's not too bad actually, I'm with Edexcel and at my school we have some kinda super class... There's 6 of us and no one below grade 8...

Yeah, it's not great. But at least it's better than having 3 on the same day like I did last year for GCSE! :redface:

That's what happened to a friend last year - I think he finished at something like half five!:rolleyes:

Yeah! True.

Oooh, that sounds crazy! What instrument do you play? I wish I could play instruments :frown:

Yeah I didn't finish until 5:30 either! And that was with only a 10 minute break between exams - I say break, they didn't even let us leave our desks. :unimpressed:
Must say, I'm very jealous of you taking Music A Level. There are so many subjects I wanted to take but couldn't. :redface:

Sax is awesome.

It is :lol: though in my frees or whatever I might just go to the pianos on my own and teach myself some songs :colone:

Aha, I take that as a compliment :biggrin:

Yep, and I was ill on the day as well. :tongue:
I do Physics, Chemistry, Maths, Further Maths and Geography. I was going to take French as my 5th, but it clashed with Physics! What are you hoping to take at university? :smile:

Those subjects sound intense! I'm torn between music performance at a conservatoire or something more sciencey! You?
People make their kids learn instruments from an early age. I'm going to make my children learn maths from early on. My brother's 6 and he can solve linear equations, I was taught that in year 7...

Quadratic by 7, hey?

I have more exams after the half term than before which is great because 4 of the easiest ones are before then the trickier ones I will be able go over in half term. 5 days between D1 and M2 is great, much needed.

Taught him surds today. It's half term next week so I might teach him linear graphs, let him practice everything, then move onto quadratics this summer.

Sounds like a plan.
Anyway, I plan to have my kids at SATs standard by the time they start school. Then GCSE by 10. A Level by 14.
