Thanks, my coursework was good so hopefully I can still get an A*. An A would be fine too, however,


nope an A will not be fine, my man we r aiming far that A*
i had a nasty cold in my maths exam and i told the invigilator to give me paper cos all you see is fat snot running down my nose, and then she just gave me some disgusted look and threw the tissue to me and i was like aww fanks babe, and then i sneezed into the tissue and then instead of the tissue capturing all the snot, it went on the exam paper. i thought to myself, damn, i feel sorry for whoever is going to mark this.

I suppose you're right, it would be a drag to put all of that work in and get a 45% fluency using Duolingo within a week all to get an A. Oh well, all I can do now is simply anticipate an A*, it's out of my hands now!
Missed the last couple of pages of my second GCSE physics paper because I thought it said 'end of questions' instead of 'turn over', still to this day don't know how many marks I left unanswered but you can imagine I was in major panic mode after I found out my mistake...

Unfortunately we don't tend to find the dumbest ones because we don't notice them at the time, and aren't significant enough to remember.

My 'dumbest' so far was resolving using energy principles to find the maximum height of an object moving in a vertical circle rather than tension in the string, but I'm sure that's not the kinda answer you wanted :wink:


Rookie mistake...

You're right, why do I have to compromise my diet all for the sake of my dentist? I'll have those MNMs thank you very much! :smug:
My former maths teacher ones accidentally spilt his tea on GCSE actual exam papers after the exam.
In my physics GCSE exam I didn't realise there was another side to the equation sheet so used the wrong equations for half the questions. It was only when the invigilator collected up the equation sheets did I realise there was another side. :/ Thankfully I got an A* in that paper so all was good
