Curses *shakes fist*

I didn't get the chance to take the extension paper.

I'm taking:

English
English Literature
Maths
Chemistry +1/2 Physics
Biology +1/2 Physics
R.E.
Systems + Control
Business Studies
German
Geography

Geography is way better than History, it's easier and you don't have to write all of those stupid essays every week. Geography we just study stuff and answer exam questions from years before.

We have two set-texts, one is Pliny's letters, the other is Virgil's Aeneid VI.

Here are what GCSE's I took:

Maths
English Lit
English Language
English Speaking & Listening
Science
PE
CDT
Office Applications
History - I hated this subject so much, and wished I never took it.

GCSEs were so easy. They were possibly the easiest exams I ever had to do. All I did in the way of revision was about half an hour for Biology and 10 minutes for Chemistry. Got 6 A's, 2 B's and 3 C's. The C's were down to coursework as well, not the exam. It was a miracle getting a C in Stats. I needed about 90% in the exam.

As for A Levels I'm doing Media, English Lit, Geography and Physics and they're all supremely difficult, especially Media and Physics. I plan on dropping Physics at the end of the year.

You just beat me with those SAT scores. However, they don't mean squat. Planning out career advice isn't that easy, I know what I want to do, it is just finding out how!

Oh and Sorry Cooky for calling you coky!

lol, i buy them yes, not cats though!
i buy monkeys, marine fish, reptiles etc. but i breed them and then sell them on. i also supply colchester zoo with a few types of monkeys.

its quite a little earner, and most importantly to me, it helps slow down the illegal and cruel trade of wild caught animals!
