OP you can get better help if we know why you missed your exam.
If you were run over and in hospital or something you might be okay...
... If your alarm clock didn't go off then its tough
Only thing you can do now is ring up the school and ask if you can resit the component in November. You definatly can resit in Year twelve but I think this means you will have to do the non-calc again too

Why did you miss it in the first place? :confused:
Did your school not ring you to let you know it was starting and you should be there?

Although possibly it's only my very exam-obsessed school that does this...

Firstly LOL :wink:

secondly contact your school ASAP, and ask to speak to Exams Officer or equivalent. Clear the situation up ASAP, and you better have some good excuse.
How come you missed it anyway?
I failed mine :smile:
lol in my school we had to give the head of year our mobile numbers just in case. I was about 45 mins late to my GCSE Business exam but it's a useless subject, to miss a maths exam is quite stupid lol. How you manage that?

bet youre raging
youl fail the exam paper, but mite get some for the cw you done, nothing you can do,i know someone whos done that, he just failed it all, n it wasnt even GCSE's was alevels.....
miiiiil
i have nightmares about this happening


ooh, i had one of those last night.

have you finished school, or do you still go in for exams/lessons?
right im guessin it was GCSE maths becuase i had that today too.
i think you would have to sit the whole of the maths component again in November, you cannot do separate papers again e.g. just Calc or something.
call your school, explain the situation, and see what they recommend you doing.
im sure you would have at least a C if you did quite well on the other

so did you wake up, go on TSR to post this thread, then run to your exam???

:confused:
How can you miss an exam? I spent the whole morning revising! My school said if you are sick or if your car breaks down you have to ring the school immediately to tell them also, they phone you if you haven't turned up!
It was an afternoon exam.... which starts at 1:30! How can you oversleep til like 1?!
