Anything's possible - don't put yourself down and you never know could get full marks again in the exam :smile:
Re-sit was pants, i answered the wrong question for like the essay bit in section b, so it was really a waste of time :frown: but never mind!
I find A+P really hard, thats what i have to do most revision on, good work though :smile:
should i do accommodation at brunel then?! :O i'm confused!
yeaah all you can do is wait and see now - i really believe that if something's meant to be then it'll happen...that's still a good mark on your practical though :yes: i can't remember what i got - think it was in the 90s due to the theory part bumping my grade up cus i am nerdy like that lol!
But yeahh, i best do some more revision *sigh* no rest for the wicked hey!



yer you can put a preference for brunel :smile: i have :smile: put ensuite :smile: you can't put specific place just a type. I think all the sections this year are harder :frown: o well i'm revving! have my first one of two exams next monday so revising for that at the moment then a week of solid PE revision afterwards :s-smilie: :/ fingers crossed for both of us! :smile:

I don't want to go to Brunel if i don't get into Exeter, so I'm not gonna bother doing any preferences for accommodation.
What exam is it on Monday? I've got English Lit and History on the Tues and Weds of next week :confused: So am doing revision for that mainly, but still trying to do my others as well...
Really having to work at Geography cause it is horrible and i don't like it anymore :frown:
Think i'm gonna do loads of past papers for PE next week as my revision..well i think that's my plan lol..:smile:
Let me know how you get on!

You don't want to go to Brunel now then? how comes?

Good luck with your eng and history!

Yer I'm going to do past papers for PE next week too or whatever but i'm pooing my pants for it! don't think i'll be getting an A in it! but fingers crossed A overall still :s-smilie:

I have computing on monday which i'm sort of looking forward to now! I've nearly completed every past paper question ever asked haha! and i can remember the mark scheme's well :O They repeat the same question every coupla years in computing so fingers crossed it'll go well.

I don't know why now, just changed my mind, don't think I want to go to a London uni and I can't see myself being there tbh :s-smilie:
Ahh thankyou, I feel the most prepared for History than any others soo am concentrating most on English this weekend, but still going over History now and again.
I'm dreading the PE exam too, just because I'm like expected to do really well and I'm finding myself struggling to remember like the A+P stuff atm, which I find quite hard anyway :frown: Still all I can do is revise hard and just practise exam questions really..
Ahh sounds like you're well prepared for your computing exam :smile: best of luck for that - let me know how you get on!

Ahh well done you! :biggrin: My exams went surprisingly alright, I had quite nice questions on both and had a lot to write for each so fingers crossed! :smile: Got my Geography on Monday though - BOOO! :frown:
I find doing past papers really helps, and I answer the ones I know I can do and get full marks on, then use books on ones I can't and then mark it with the mark scheme. Seems to work for me :smile:

Definately got a deal there! haha would be awesome.

Haha well I queued up on thursday morning to get the new iphone, then went to london that night and stayed in london on friday too! Then Saturday had to go sort O2 out as my new sim card wasnt working :angry: but they're paying my first month of my contract :smile: Had lunch with the fam. Spent the rest of the day sitting about. Yesterday I worked 8-4 watched the second half of the ***** football, then had a BBQ and spent the evening at my girlfriends. Now need to get a haircut today and do more nothing haha!

But on the football front I don't really mind as I'm 1/4 German :biggrin: My mum lived in germany for a while too! so we support both in our household. It's disappointing England aren't through but Germany are easily the better team!

Haven't got too much planned until August! Have our college leavers party on Wednesday which is bound to be very drunken! And thinking of going to Thorpe Park on Friday! And friday night it's one of my friends late BBQ Birthday things so more drink haha!

where are you off to on hols? I might be going to France in August but otherwise non of my holidays are abroad this year :frown:

Managed to watch first half of the footy while we had a late lunch, but then was driving home in the car for the second, kept getting text updates from my friends to let me know lol! I'm glad I didn't watch it now haha, but yeaaah Germany did deserve to win, England played shockingly!!!
Ahh sounds like you'll be having lots of drunken fun, I miss my college's leavers party cus I'm away...going to spain with my mum and dad and my best friend for 18days so should be a giggle :smile: I'm soo excited lol :biggrin:

Ohh is he?! I didn't know that.

Ahh I'm even more excited about my holiday today :biggrin: :biggrin: Went shopping to get some final bits and pieces today, and saw my friend who I'm going away with soo we were right in the holiday mood!

I've been to Berlin, but never been anywhere in Austria...
Umm I do go to Spain fairly often, we're lucky enough to have a villa out there, so our family holidays are always there and have been for the past 4 years now! Good job I still love it there, it's just so chilled out and relaxing that I never want to come home :smile:
I do wanna see other places though, would love to go travelling to Oz and New Zealand and places like that...but I don't think student loan will stretch that far :P Do you wanna go travelling at all?

Ahh your friend sounds like he has the perfect life :biggrin: And yeah Exeter do offer a year abroad, which sounds soo amazing, if i got offered that or whatever i would soo take it up!!!
Holiday was amazing taar, got back last night soo just had to unpack and that today, then sift through emails and whatnot!
Tbh i haven't really thought about money for freshers week yet, but i was reading on one of the exeter facebook pages that it's a good idea to take lots of alcohol and mixers with you to save on costs and that...they also have a dos/don'ts page which was quite helpful :smile:
I'm soo excited, but just wanna know my results now really...
