Why does everyone who do that spec call it with the code
I've never seen edexcel people call it with the spec number


Posted from TSR Mobile


Yeah, what fish said. I call all my units by their codes actually :tongue:

Edexcel don't have nice codes

OCR is nice and simple

F32 = Chemistry spec a

And then the last digit is the unit

F321-chem unit 1
F322-chem unit 2
Etc

Like physics spec a is G48


Ohhhh ok makes sense :lol:

Haha we call it 'ABG' for Atoms Bonds and groups, and 'CER' for Chains, Energy and Resources but for bio it's 'F211 and F212'... Bit weird that

AQA is the nicest IMO.

Physics spec A unit 1 is PHYA1 lol
Maths all start from M too
But I never use the codes :lol :

I've noticed that any unit with a '2' at the end has quite a nice ring to it :lol:

If yours is the aftermath of a small typhoon then mine must be the aftermath of an F5 tornado

I feel like i'm going about revising the wrong way because my room is about in between being acceptable and being a colossal mess. I have an abundance of notes kept up on the wall above my desk with push pins. I think I've actually managed to contain the revision clutter to my desk.

They're not that bad! Like
6ph=physics
6ch=chemistry
Then last 2 digits are the unit eg
6ph01 is physics unit 1

Information Technology:smile:,
Digital Media:smile:,
Physics:s-smilie:,
Chemistry (I have the essay paper tomorrow :eek:,
Caribbean Studies :biggrin:(that should give you a clue as to where I'm from),
Communication Studies (multiple choice today),

Any thoughts as to which I should choose for Comp Sci( I see myself at a company such as Amazon, Google, Facebook etc.)

Well there's lots of overlap (Digital Media, IT and Comp Sci) so that makes it easier.

Plus I'm kinda aiming to be the best A level student in the Caribbean (we have awards and stuff)
