I found out today that my Spanish prelim is on the 23rd of next month, but I'm in France from the 20th to the 24th :woo:
I need to do it myself when I get back :frown:

Higher physics is on the 29th. After maths a couple of days before, I think it will be welcome.

My teacher told the others they'd have to take an oath in blood not to share the answers with me, no joke :rofl:

Aw thanks :p:
Thing is, it'll be after 4 days of speaking French, so I'll probably still be in French mode! :sigh:

Results so far: Quite pleased with them, especially since they were the things I thought I did worse in.

AH French - 42/50 for reading, 32/40 for writing, 15/30(:p:, and even then I was lucky to get that many) for listening = 89/120 overall, which is just about an A.

Nice one! :smile: I have french tomorrow, revision started today...and even then it's just not happening :p: Also, I'm hating the pegged marks on writing/speaking...it's ridiculous how easily you can drop a grade!

:ditto: I told myself that you can't really revise for French.

Yea I've always thought that for writing and speaking they should bring in intermediate marks between two pegged marks. There's quite a lot of variation between them and a lot of people will perform such that they should get a mark of say 36 (between 32 and 40).

Good luck tomorrow.

Well done! If I was a lesser human being, I'd say that you disgust me. Instead, I bow to your superior knowledge.

Are they notoriously bad?
My physics teacher has been bleating on about how much of a stonker our Higher prelim is compared to last year.
The median mark from a perfect paper he 'adjusted' was 33% :s-smilie: .

I find them horrible. Our school used them for standard grade, and they contained a lot of out-dated content and it was terribly unfair.

My prelims start next Monday ( 1st Feb) and I still haven't started revising, Have I left it too late?
