for the science exams should i look at different gcse boards?

I sat the biology and chemistry exams two years ago, there was a lot of stuff on evaluating experiments so you don't really need to know a lot it's more about applying what they having given you

I found the physics the hardest, the others fine, just so frustrating about silly mistakes which I knew the answers too!

You don't need to worry about not finishing the second section. A lot of people in my year didn't manage to and they still got in for Double Maths. :smile:

Same. I found that the hardest, plus some of the stuff do not even appear in my syllabus. Like earth wire, live wire, etc. Although I knew them, it was upsetting and also the electrostatic smoke precipitator? What the hell was that? What did you put down for that please?
Chemistry - some questions I did silly mistakes on. I am so pissed at myself.
Maths - Lovely!
History - Good

I learnt about the plug stuff just before the exam :smile:

I don't think I did the smoke question, but I think you had to talk about the different charges attracting each other...

Oh okay, what questions did you do, if you remembered them?
And yhh, I talked about that, its like wet scrubbing. But physics element to it too.
What did you put for the possible occupation you might do in the application form... this goes out to everybody. I put engineering (chemical)

Oh gosh.. So many different coloured groups.. Ohh okay :smile:

I was in yellow group. Yhh, many people did. I knew there was competition to be a medic, that is why I decided to do engineering - but I love that too. Hey, do you guys think we are getting our reply letters soon... I am bursting to know... :biggrin:

Did you guys apply to Newstead Wood as well???
