I found out today that resits at my college will be £23.50+ depending on subject, really hoping I pass everything even more now! Won't have any money left for ice cream if I don't :frown:

Thanks

I'm the opposite of you in the sense that I'm recently leaning more towards biology. I used to love chemistry, but then our teacher left and the new one isn't do good :s-smilie:

Well I hope you enjoy your course :biggrin:

I keep switching between the two; my teachers last year made biology really dull whereas I have one this year who makes all the genetics and biochemical/molecular topics really interesting. I hate ecology though. :tongue:

You too, and good luck with your results! :biggrin:

I did:

A2 Maths - MPC3
AS Human Biology - HBIO1
A2 Business Studies - BUSS3
A2 English Lit. - LITB3

I'm on the AQA exam board.

I'm not expecting much for english. For AS, I thought I did quite good and expected a B but I ended up with barely a C (made it though). Their marking is harsh. :/

ohhh a fellow Human Biology'er :biggrin:

How did you find it? :tongue:

Ocr chem 1 was very bad.

Ahh that sucks.. I was on AQA, it was alright, though a few tough parts.

Original post by Doctor.

It was a strange paper! I think I did well on the hard bits...but then the calculations, I pretty much screwed it all up! Trust me to do that on the 'easy marks' :facepalm:

(there was not enough time lol) :frown:

Hoping I did okay though.

And yourself? :h:

I thought it was strange too! much different to the past ones.
The ones I remembered I messed up on was the "how many isomers" and the very first question, the others I can't really remember :laugh:

Its getting close though and nerves are starting to kick in and will so even more once the mark schemes come out!

Good luck for Thursday anyway :biggrin:

I found it okay, surprisingly. (But I did work my *** off on it)
But the weird thing is, everyone in my class said it was tough...? Maybe I did it all wrong! :frown:

I have a feeling edexcel will release before.
If i can recall correctly, edexcel grade boundaries were out on the evening of the 16th (18th was results day).
Also for march - they came out before too..

BUSS3 was okay-ish. It wasn't easy, but it wasn't extremely hard. Everyone in my class found it okay as well. So I don't know. I guess we'll find out on Thursday!!
What about you?
