Exams!

[WACCOE]

Before this thread starts, I noticed a lot of threads are getting closed recently for straying off topic, so if this one does, the person who is responsible will get a good spanking. Thanks.

Right, exams. Urgh. I have GCSE's starting tomorrow, got English Lit and ICT. Dreading them, really am. :s


Anyone else got any kind of exams coming up soon? And, how did everyone else do in their GCSE's?

:)

[PublicEnemy#1]

[WACCOE]

You're in the same boat as me then PublicEnemy. :s

You got RE on Wed aswell? Im not even going to try, only short course, pointless.

[phatmuther]

good god id hate to do exams again, they blow. dont worry about it so much, if you do, you'll get nervous and mess up a bit, trust me its not the end of the world if you fail any either,
my mate needed four C's or above including a music GCSE to get on the music course, he got four C's but didnt get his music one, still got in though (Y)

[WACCOE]

Ah, cool. I need 4 in any to get on my course at college. I already have 2 B's though from Busines Studies, as we did our Exam in January. So that's sorted + im nearly there. :D

My Dad will absolutely rape me I I don't do well though, which imo is uneeded pressure. :s

[Dcontrol]

Thank heavens all my studying and revising is behind me. I did my GCSE's about 10 years ago :$

Good luck with your exams fellas!

[backin-strachan]

Ive done a few exams. Maths Int 2 which Im supposed to sit in 2years I got the chance this year so if I get an A then I will be over the moon.:)

[Killer 57]

I just finished up a week of exams.ugh. That was hell. I Had to take the California High School Exit Exam, plus state testing.

[Raisedbyflames]

dont worry they arnt as bad as you think they are and you will feel great when you are done with them, a summer holiday with no homework awaits you

[WACCOE]

Lol, thanks RBF. Suppose it something to look forward to. :D

Well, got my first one this morning, 35 mins to be precise (why am I still on here?), and it's Enlish Lit, just like all the other 16 year olds out there that haven't dropped out. (Y)

Then ICT this afternoon, which should be a doddle. :)

[kazzer]

I hated my GCSE's, I scored C's and B's on all my subjects but R.E and English which I had to retake in order to get the course im doing now.

As for the course im doing now if you add every individual curricular exam throughout the two years I've done nearly 30 just ITE and another 16 in CCNA.

[charliebrown]

good luck with the exams people!
i wish i could go back in time and do them again.
hell theres loads of things id do if i went back in time.
whoah thats a good idea for a thread.

[PublicEnemy#1]

You're in the same boat as me then PublicEnemy. :s

You got RE on Wed aswell? Im not even going to try, only short course, pointless.

No i have my RE shortcourse on friday

[WACCOE]

Ah right. ;)


Well English turned out easy in my opinion. The bit on the novel (Of Mice & Men) was a doddle and the pre-1914 poem part was slightly more tricky, but we had ages to do it in.

IT this afternoon was OK. In places it was easy then there would just be a random question worth a lot of marks and i'd be like "WTF?!?!" - as there was some thing's we've never been taught, which is a bit silly. :unsure:


:)

[PublicEnemy#1]

mice of men was easy and so was section b's blood brothers, the poem we had was about a prisioner and that was pi$$

[WACCOE]

:sleepy: 2 whole hours of R.E this morning. It is only half a GCSE so I polished the exam off in 30 minutes, a quarter of the allocated time. Then I built a tower out of my pens, pencils, rulers etc. :D

[PublicEnemy#1]

crap when ya finish early, all i do is draw on tah desk's..lol

[Outlaw]

lol i was writing **** right up to about ten minutes before the end

[WACCOE]

lol i was writing **** right up to about ten minutes before the end
In what exam? If you were wrtiign right up until the end you are either really thick, or really clever?

I don't think I need to guees with you. :p

[JJBDude]

I've got my first real GCSE exam tomorrow, it's a English one. I'm not too worried to be honest, I know what I need to do to get a C and I am sure I can do it. ^_^

[Raisedbyflames]

i managed toget my revisionnotes into an exam once lol, i diddnt even use them

[PublicEnemy#1]

Re tomoz should be easy

[backin-strachan]

I dont know why it takes so long to get them corrected its so annoying. We bother to turn up for the exam and they dont have the courtesy to correct it and get our results off to us until August.

ugh...

[JJBDude]

I think I did quite well, wrote 1 page of A4 in a 45 minute English exam, I think I will get my C. :D

[ashmufc]

Re tomoz should be easy

What you doing? Higher, Intermidiate or Lower? Im doing Intermidiate, my c/w apparently was OK so I shouldn't need that much to get a B, which is my target. :)

Im am bricking them though!

[PublicEnemy#1]

intermidiate, been doin revision so i think i'll do alright

[Outlaw]

i'm doin intermediate and i only need a c which should be easy to get, because my coursework was good if i get a high d it pulls me up to a c

[PublicEnemy#1]

just done my maths exam an it was proper hard..............lol............failed......lol

[JJBDude]

Got a Science GCSE exam on Thursday worth 25% of my overall grade (I think). Now I discover that it really doesn't help you out in the long run for copying people, as that's what I've done for the past few years and this exam is going to murder me. :(

[Daniel 89]

No exams for me until next year. :D

[WACCOE]

Oh dear. That Intermidiate Maths Exma was solid!!! Equalities, Recurring Decimals, Perimter of a semi-circle, I ain't been taught any of that crap!!!

[Outlaw]

lol i had the same gutted feeling when i looked at the paper, i thought S*** i should of revised like me mum sed lol, buit the first couple of questions were ****, but then they always are lol, but i think i got me c anyway.

[WACCOE]

Heh, we've still got the calculator one to do yet Outlaw. That one should hopefully be easier though. Remember to revise Trigonometry. :p

[PublicEnemy#1]

just done tha english paper 1 an it was ****, finished right on tha last sec..........lol, tech this afternoon i think i'll do good.........lol

[ashmufc]

Mondays Edecel Higher Maths was ****, why am I the only one doing Higher, I thought gamers where good at maths LOL!
Anyway, had Engerlish Paper 1 today, it wasn't too ahrd but the marks for questions were dodgy.

[WACCOE]

Lol...the Enlgigh one this morning then Graphics this afternoon were well easy! :D

Think I did quite well in both. :)

[Killer 57]

I got a B+ in my Cold War Report w00t, Some of the Teacher Remarks " Excellent detail!" " Very Original" " Sean Connery FTW!"

[WACCOE]

The English Paper 2 exam today was really easy. I did question 1 about the 'Vultures' poem, and then I did question 5 - Describe yourself. Was really easy and I even had time to read some of the prose stories in the back of the Anthology at the end, as I had nothing to do! Lol.

Maths again on Monday MORNING!!! Should be fun. Least it's calculator.

A lasses phone went off in our exam today though, it was at the front of the hall in her bag, was meant to be on silent but obviously wasn't. Went off. The teachers had time to snuff it out and claim it...knowing the person's who it was would have to go claim it back, so they know who's phone it was...she will probably get d/q'ed from English, and POSSIBLY all of her exams. She's a bright lass aswell.

Another went off in this monring exam which they didn't have time to find.

But it's silly because at the begininning of each exam they stress how important it is to have all phones, pagers etc. at the front of the hall SWICHED OFF - they even give you the chance to go chack if there off before it starts. Stupidity.

:)

[PublicEnemy#1]

all the english ones were easy, only ones left are maths (cal), science, history, french and satistics
