because I'm taking further math so that's math+fmath+physics+economics = 3 papers
you taking lunch break?

how were the exams? and which subjects?

Hi I'm taking the maths economics history and geography exams, is there any advice on the geography exams? as I haven't read much about it on here thanks x

I did maths and physics.

Maths: It was easy, but you had to go really fast. That was very frustrating because I lost 5 marks from the last question from rushing. Lots of quadratics and simultaneous equations came up. Trig came up, with pythagoras. Probability and indices too.

Physics: It was generally easy. Signals, Waves, Circuits, Hookes Law. Most of it was within C1 and C2 of the AQA exam board.

But I think my maths let me down. Really frustrating.

You think you'll get an offer from them?

Hey have you checked out the Westminster website?
They have like a PDF file with the basics of the different exams x

Where is this?

on the westminster school website, you have to click on Admissions - entry at 16+ - Apply online and then its the PDF file called Sixth form courses brochure

You're not going to be asked that ridiculous question!!

You'll have a general interview, which is questions about academic interest, career, and school stuff. I was asked if there was anything I'd like to do outside my a-levels when at school, and I just answered honestly about the things I was doing in my other school, i.e. what sports I played and choir stuff.

And then you'll have an interview for each subject.
When I applied it was for Latin, English, History of Art and Religious Studies, so if you happen to be doing any of the above I could tell you some of what they asked me.

They want people who have a keen interest in their academic work, not just for the hell of getting As. If you don't care about your subjects, you won't be able to fake that.

Good luck

Oh I've seen that, I thought it was topics you needed to revise. How are you preparing?

Just getting everything for GCSE known. I have to learn all the Chemistry and Physics as we haven't done it in school yet. I'll be done soon though.
