"GCSE's cumin up"

over my whole life span i have never, not once revised and i have passed a majoritory of my tests, for my GCSE tests do you think i should revise and go for thr B or even the A rarther than settleing for the C? according to my english teacher, if i actually did coursework, and performed for the test i could get a B! should I?

I had four different DT teachers in year 9.

Our geography teacher was a twunt. He was an ex-marine and shouldn't really have been teaching. Such a lovely guy that he quit his job in the Easter holiday, leaving us with a new teacher to finish the syllabus and revise with.

Idiot.

Do the AS course if you want - it's a doddle.
Just not the 2nd year. Everyone out of my old class has starting cutting themselves.

Chipseh - 20 case studies?

Jesus christ, I have like 5 - 6.

Oh well, good luck tomorrow.

That doesn't beat my old German teacher. He got on the floor and started rolling around pretending he was a baby. Oh, and he's Scottish with a bad comb over. It was so funny that I cried.

For me Year 9 and 10 were alright. In year 9 we had some crazy teacher who was extremely passionate about some subjects like when we did some stuff on plants he was going on about how people mistreated them and stepped on them and then he started talking as if he was a plant himself and starting singing "I'm a survivor, got to keep on surviving, no one can step on me!" Oh how I laughed.

Biggest mistake I made in choosing subjects was doing Geography instead of Class Civ.

Meh. That's still another year of mind-numbing...

Geography really does sound bad. Year 8 was the best year for geography because we had the welsh PE teacher teaching it to us. Good times.

Well I don't think I did the full rocks...it was sort of incorporated in Coasts so I don't think I got the full whack :P Yeah, Tectonics, Industry was ok as was population and Coasts was interesting at times but them boring at others (probably cause of the little rocks section) Ecosystems was fairly interesting but some of the less extreme ecosystems sucked. Maybe if I took it for AS level?
