I also had to get a photo talken for the local papaer (Isle of wight county press) so if you live on the island you may see me there... I'll be the one sporting the shirt saying 'Bad Religion' on it, and looking generally ugly. I spent the rest of the day (from quarter to 12 till about half an hour ago) drinking cheap cider with some mates. Then we drank this tiny bottle of vodka that my mate's grandad gave to him before he died... it was actually really old voddy... not sure how old but quite old... then my mate went into thresher to get some beer, and saw some really cheap beer... we later found out it was out of date AND it was non-alcoholic!!! So we drank somebody elses beer... all this time another guy had his acoustic guitar and we were trying to sing these songs we didn't know... Then another guy who also knew how to play guitar played, and played Welcome To Paradise by GreenDay... I sang along, but unfortunately I forgot half the wordxs... darn...well, who cares, I'm SMUG and opretty tipsy too... so there :P

POP for Gassie! I answered that further down the thread. Assume you didn't see it though as you haven't added me to MSN as far as I know... Well, if you see this add me or put up your MSN and I'll add you.

Merci Beaucoup pour le ... nice comments... (some else'll have to convert the last 2 words to french...)
Still don't understand getting A in french. But I'm not complaining. Thanks to everyone, and good luck to you all for your exams/results that are coming within the next year!

Thanks, I think I'll do that, except by the time they come there won't be any holiday left to use, so I'll have to do it at week-ends :(

Go through them methodically noting everything. Doesn't matter if you look at the notes again, but that's how you learn stuff, by writing. Stop at the end of every section and get someone to test you, then re-note the stuff that you got wrong and keep going. If you do a week of proper work (by that I mean getting up a 9:00 and going till about 4:00 with short breaks) then you can polish off all three sciences. And you will know everything that they can ask you. I taught myself GCSE Biology, Chemistry and Physics in the first holiday of the same school year you're about to go into. It's a week of hard work then you can cruise to an A*, and you will.
It's just about remembering things.

Oh beleive me I plan to work hard. The only trouble is I'm so far behind with coursework now, and there are so many 'basic' things I don't know...

Everyone will be telling you this, but it should sink in more coming from someone who went the same way and is paying for it right now by having to get more A levels and GCSEs just to go to Uni
"Work hard"
There, that wasn't so bad, was it?
I know it seems like forever, but it's only one more year, so just work hard for one year, and you can laze around in 6th form - trust me

Yeah well done sibs
Nice results sibs :-)
Damn. I take my GCSEs nxt year, and I have my mocks soon. I'm in the highest set for everything but this previous year (10) I really went down hill, I haven't been working or paying any attention. Now I'm getting worried :S
