It was the point I was doing 3x the amount of work for single maths as for further that I realised I shouldn't be doing all the work (my single class were all taking further so it wasn't even like some people needed it to scrape a D or anything!)
Hopefully some drama, possibly some dance, not too sure atm, but I need something to keep me sane :lol:

Had to give up my drama class at Christmas so having nothing for 6 month hasn't done me too much good...

maths and drama sounds like such an interesting mix :awesome:

you could do a mathsy play :wink:

I would like to preface this with:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Finished A-levels, so one place or another I'll be doing physics. I just wish I hadn't left any gaps in ability before going into some of my exams - especially FM1 and stats & mechanics. I wonder how avoidable that'll be at uni - guessing it won't be.

Oh and people doing Edexcel FS1 there's a wrong formula in the textbook. It should be

P(X=n) = \dfrac{G^{(n)} _X (t)}{n!}

. So I've learnt not to trust Edexcel's textbooks :facepalm:

you'll be fine :hugs:

and my textbook has had a good few errors too smh

app aqa is bi'tch to do
i do edexcel

i don't think it's that bad, i've done aqa for gcse maths though so maybe i'm used to it. i think edexcel papers look horrendous :hide:

What I will be doing next year: Doing A-levels :eek:

hopefully in maths, fm, geography and chemistry :thumbsup:

What I've learnt not to do next year: Don't just read notes, mix up your revision methods, even if answering questions are boring :laugh:

One useful thing I've learnt this year: Sleep is good :yes:

an interesting choice in subjects :gah:

are you still thinking of doing maths at uni?
mixing up revision methods is good, stops you getting bored :yep:

sleep is amazing but i never seem to get enough of it...

Naa drama is strictly extra curricular and non related to maths thanks :tongue:

I tend to go for musical theatre an you'd be surprised with the correlation between maths and music so there's more of us than you'd necessarily think :giggle:

you could have played a character who discovered the wonders of the pi sign :cry:

there is definitely something somewhat mathematical about music :yes:

hopefully there'll be lots of mathsy people at the theatre/musical society at the uni you'll go :awesome:
