I just hope I get enough sleep the day before as I will be driving around all day Thursday.

Also, I've been asked by my college to open my results in front of the news... Umm... No thanks :frown:

How do you figure that? Any proof? :tongue:
(I take edexcel by the way, just curious)



My school used to be on OCR, however the head of year changed it in 2010, which meant that I was doing Edexcel Chem instead, so my teachers knew best about the challenges of both boards and they said that OCR was hard, but not as hard as Edexcel, where the exam questions are very experimental based, making it tougher. I would have liked to have done OCR to see what it was like.

I don't understand why some exam boards are harder than others :s-smilie: surely it's unfair if people have to do exams with the 'harder' exam boards :s-smilie:


Same, I feel sorry for the people that do MEI maths :frown: They have the hardest questions!

My college is with MEI and Salters :erm:
Arsey has edexcel boundaries!!
Just a quick question, what time does UCAS normally update on results day morning? I've heard from some that it's 4am, others that it's 12; I want to see my status alone in calmness without family crowding around which they seem intent to do :mad:

Army of Me - Bjork ft. Skunk Anansie
Probably not everyone's cup of tea but I think it's quite badass :smile: I think the lyrics are quite fitting too :wink: I can imagine everything around me blowing up as I walk in slow motion to the table where the results are

They scale results up and down depending on the difficulty of the exam. I think every year top 20% get A top 10% get A* and so on.


It is sclaed to how hard the exam is, but this isn't neccesarily linked to giving the 90th percentile A* etc. If so, how would the proprotion of people passing a proportion getting As ever increase like it does every year (bar last)?

Looks like everyone is amazing at it too? I feel like a simpleton just hoping for an A in maths


I know right!? Trust me, if you end up achieving an A in Maths, you should be nothing but proud of yourself because I think that's an excellent achievement. Some people could not even gain an A in GCSE maths never mind A level Maths! You shouldn't feel like a simpleton at all buddy :smile: Just out of interest are you aiming to study maths at uni? if not what is your chosen course?
