Posted October 18, 2005 Well, i've got 1 GCSE ^_^ A in Maths I'm in year 11 and did it early, now studyinbg statistics in the maths time. hopefully i'll get quite a few gcse's, so i can go onto do some national diplomas and a levels. I did that too. although i did Advanced Maths - which was too hard and i failed. I should have done statistics but the teacher though she knew better...

Posted October 18, 2005 heh, i'm going on to do maths A Level, *shrug* purely because it's one of things i'm actually good at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 18, 2005 I'm in year 11, and currently have 3 GCSEs. Drama (A, 2 marks off an A*), Expressive Arts (B, which I did in year 9) and Statistics (D, my coursework let me down apparently). Now I'm doing AS Drama and GCSE Maths. Plus all those other GCSEs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 18, 2005 heh, i'm going on to do maths A Level, *shrug* purely because it's one of things i'm actually good at. If your good at it - do it. Its a great A Level to have. We just weren't taught the advanced maths in year 11, so we all failed it. With some good teaching at college - you'll hopefully do well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 18, 2005 I've got a degree and therefore win, and in case anyone attempts to equal my degree, it has been endowed with First Class honours. And I'll have an even better thing soon ... hopefully. Everyone I went to school with is working now though and earns more money than me. (I earn nothing.)

Posted October 18, 2005 Hmmm, wouldn't worry too much about GCSE's, not many employers do. Can't even remember what I got. A-Levels went alright though, C in English Lit, C in History and B in Geology, but I think I could have done better if I'd worked a bit harder and spent less time playing with monkeys in balls.

Posted October 19, 2005 Hmmm, I cant beat the PhD, but I do have a Masters (along with the Degree, A levels and GCSEs I did). Wow, this has just turned into a complete show off thread. And Mr Odwin, I also earn jack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 19, 2005 My brother got a 1-1 in some Maths degree at Edinburgh. Alot of people say the GCSE's aren't important, but when your the age to do them there's nothing else that's more important really, so you might aswell try as hard as you can. I#m pretty sure I'll get a 1 (equivalent A I guess, we can't get any special marks, like A*) in everything apart from History and German, which I'll have to try really hard in.

Posted October 19, 2005 12 GCSEs, 4 As Levels 3, A Levels and three weeks of the way towards a degree....so i guess that one doesnt count Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 19, 2005 11.5 GCSE's (7A*, 3A, 2B) 3 proper Alevels (maths, physics, further maths) Chemistry and computing AS (all at A) general studies (B grrr), and 1 years worth of a physics degree (oxford). GCSE's are quite important, Uni's use them with you predicted grades. more important that doing duke of edingborough or something on you personal statement. EDIT: corrected spelling of oxford Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 19, 2005 Well so far I have 9 GCSE's (A*A*A*A*A*A*A*A*A) and 4 (or 6 if you count GS etc.) AS levels pending (predicted AAAA). No predictions for GS and CT, or for the 4 A levels I intend to take. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 19, 2005 EDIT: corrected spelling of oxford And not Edinburgh? I've got 6 credit grades in Scottish Standard Grades and 2 generals. Credit = 1 or 2 = A* or A General = 3 or 4 = B or C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 19, 2005 I have 11 GCSE's. (2 A*s 2 A s 4 B s 2 C's and 1 F) The F was for French, inwhich I never turned up for the Paper Two, because it was a waste of time. For me they where fairly important because they got me my Apprenticeship - and considering there where a couple of hundred applicants and only two got picked isnt too bad. What I can't understand was at the leadup interviews out of the tens of people I spoke to, only one or two had similar results to me, all the other guys had flipping 10 A*'s. The only thing that I can really think did it for me was the Personal Statement...well no, I'm just clutching at straws. I'm baffled to this day. Remember fellow homies that will be looking to start college next September, work on your Personal Statement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 19, 2005 And not Edinburgh? I've got 6 credit grades in Scottish Standard Grades and 2 generals. Credit = 1 or 2 = A* or A General = 3 or 4 = B or C Only 8 standard grades, i got 9 :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 19, 2005 now studyinbg statistics Good luck with that english exam. I prefer mechanics rather than statistics, and even though Physics was one of the subjects I failed at AS, learning mechanics in Physics lessons helped me out a lot when doing it in Maths.

I prefer mechanics rather than statistics, and even though Physics was one of the subjects I failed at AS, learning mechanics in Physics lessons helped me out a lot when doing it in Maths. we didn't get a choice, but we do physics anyways, and i'm gonna take that aswell, as it might help with programming a game engine, which is basically something i've always wanted to do.
