Pick me Pick me, i did soemthing exciting!

Just got back from a mates 18th, so am trying to post as coherently (wooo big word) as possible. Was good fun, somehow ended up playing snooker at 1am, not sure how or why but was fun! :p:

Anyhu not really sre why Im on TSR but it seemed better than sleep and there's only some crappy war film on, that one called something with eagles.
My exams are finished! Finally.

But the IBO screwed up royally. We're supposed to get a periodic table with paper 1 of chemistry and they forgot to put it in...Ah, the things that can go wrong, eh?

Good luck to everyone still sitting exams. I'm off to Eastern Europe for three weeks.
Love/hate relationship with May....
Love: THE MOVIES. OMG X-Men 3!!!!!! My inner geek is just waiting to bloom.
Hate: The exams. Pah.

Stats I tommorow, uh oh...

I'm hoping to get a decent mark so I can fail C4 and still get an A overall, but the crappy thing about stats is that if you mess up the first part of a question, the rest of it will all be wrong...

Don't you get carried errors or whatever, i.e. if your working's right, but you used a wrong value from a previous q., you still get the majority of the marks?

Wahey, me too. I always get probability questions wrong, which is unfortunate. I need an average of about 65% in my remaining 3 modules, so the more marks I can pick up, the closer to 50% I can be in C3 and C4:redface:
First proper exam tomorrow PHY 5 practical, What fun!!!!

Will report back!
I've got physics prac tomorrow am and stats in the pm. erg :frown: Aired - ditto with the failing of C4.
wow the joy of practicals. still teachers tend to give lovly hints about hte paper before. i really hate vectors, thats my major downfall mathswise, i think they're silly
:hello:
hmm *yawn*
:ciao:
Practical wasnt as bad as i thought it would be, now the real exams start! AHHH
My physics practical (AQA B) was a bit pooey this morning, the bulb resistance question wasn't ammicable.
