In terms of UMS it was History. Which was awkward considering I had a place to read Ancient History.

However, I did get a U in the one module of Critical Thinking I took before I dropped it. Bloody pointless subject.

Business Studies, originally 4 UMS marks off an A, then RE-MARKED TO ONE UMS MARK OFF AN A. :unimpressed: Annoyed since it's the subject I do at uni, would have been good to get an A in it really, but ah well.
I wouldn't wish the English lit exam on my worst enemy, two hours of total agony and despair.

Had to be Geography! :colondollar:
I absolutely hated it as it bored the hell out of me, i'm still really confused how i even ended up taking it for AS level... :rolleyes:

I did hardly any work in lessons, struggled to motivate myself and ended up revising a couple of days before my exams which was not a good idea at all!
But somehow i ended up with a B grade, when i looked further i realised that i only just scraped it by a couple of UMS marks so i count myself as very lucky! :biggrin:

hahahha high five. C is the highest grade achieved in my year ...ooppps


Im the only one left doing it for A2 in my sixth form (because I have to do t long story) I got a D at AS if I'm lucky I'll get a C is undoubtably my worst subject considering I'm predicted AAB in the others. Funny bit my schools a specialist language college. :tongue: it's got to the point I don't really care much for the subject just doing it if I get higher than a D then ill be celebrating!

English Lit. What a terrible bloody A-Level.

Should've opted for Philosophy, Physics, or FM. Anything but English Lit.


What did you get? What board were you on?
Further Maths. Lost all interest in studying towards the end of the second year, and that was when I took Further Maths AS-level and A-level. Got a C :redface:

Did you do LITB1 by any chance?

Just out of interest, what does your username mean?

I got a B overall, on AQA (only a few marks from an A, but meh).

LITB1 and 3 exams were just the most boring things I've ever done in my life. Got 98% average on the coursework units ahaha.

Me neither. Was going to drop it at GCSE. Was going to drop for Sixth form. Now I am dropping it at the end of the year, thank god. Bloody awful language.

I do LITB1 too! :biggrin:

I did the resit on friday, did awfully in the summer. You don't even have time to lift your head up, I had about a 5 second break in that exam.

Did you just find it boring, or did you think the exam was pretty flawed as well?
