Just curious - can you bring a guest to formal hall, if yes do they have to wear a gown? (St John's btw)

Yes, and if they have brought a gown with them they should wear it. If not then it's not a problem.

So they can just wear a suit (assuming they don't own a gown) out should they borrow one?

Omigosh you do three sciences at HL :eek:

I'm revising Physics SL right now and I'm struggling. I seriously admire you, I don't know how you do it!

Mine is 42 776. I'm not so concerned of the 42 as I am of the 776. I'm worried that I'll end up getting a 5 in French :s-smilie:.

Surely you could ask your school what they predicted you?


Haha thanks :smile: applied for vetmed, so science is fun for me. But i completely agree, physics is a pain.

I did ask, but they just said they couldn't tell me

Good luck meeting your offer! I'm sure you'll make it :smile:

That's odd. What about your insurance? And what if you want to complete them - seems a waste of a year's studying if you don't at least take the exams at this late stage.

It was more "you've done so much, don't fall at the last hurdle" so didn't sound that weird but idk.
I don't care much about my insurance cos I don't wanna go there! :tongue:
That's what I'm thinking but so much revision is needed for biology (probably more than the other 4 combined) so maybe it's for the best? :/

Are you doing any easy subjects? I.e critical thinking? If so maybe drop those? Dont drop any academic subjects unless you aren't confident of surpassing your entrance requirements.

Nope, bio chem maths physics and fm as, would drop bio. I'm not really that confident of surpassing, although I'm hoping to. It's just that there's SO MUCH to know for biology and I've done the fun learning part, now would just be revision? Idkkk

I doubt it. I only know two Homerton natsci's and my username hints heavily at my real name and neither of them have commented.
