Well done! :smile:

I'm fine and nope :frown: two days without a mum is horrible :frown: ... but dad is currently home so its a little less stress :smile:


I get my biology and physics ISAs back on Monday :biggrin: ... I messed my biology one up but was really only 1 3 mark question .... but I have to beat 45 to improve which isn't likely to happen :L

and physics I thought went very well so i'm expecting at least 43 as that is my lowest ISA score .. but I would love 50 as that would give me a chance to get an A* ( I need 100% in both ISA and Physics 3 )

so after these past few days ... fingers crossed , i'm owed some good luck/days/events


Awee :frown: When my mum went abroad I cried lo-hoads. It's natural to miss her and she'll be back soon :smile:

Ahhh all these stats make me depressed, i hope you get the marks you need! You deserve it! :smile:

My friends school pays them MONEY to attend school. I recently also learnt that her class was resitting one of their CA's and because the teacher wasn't bothered to go through it all, he gave them a paper to memorise and write up the next day. She got 100% on the CA and she's a lower set student. It's so frustrating to know this, that while we struggle other students elsewhere get a free ride. :/

Cynicism, woohoo! I hope that cynicism does mean being cynical, if not... ignore that first sentence!

Why did you apply to so many!? If I wanted to apply to that many, I'd have to be travelling for at least an hour to get to some of them.

Hopefully a bad exam grade will bring down her grade closer to the grade she should have got. That might sound mean, but it's unfair that people get to do that!

i hate when stuff happens like this. But I also hate when people are naturally gifted at a subject to the extent they take the mick. Someone in the last French Writing got an A*, better than me, and the first time they saw the questions was when they sat down to do it. It makes me angry because I work for what I achieve:angry:

I wouldn't say it's taking the mick, personally, I would actually do that if I still had to do French writing controlled assessments next year, as I don't need to do well in those.
