How'd you normally get to school? surely you can get them yourself!

 

Bus. The buses here come every hour so i'd be waiting outside school for an hour when i get them

 

So you'd rather wait a day or two instead?

 

Yes I'd rather wait til tomorrow.

If it's posted tomorrow, you will have to wait at least until Friday then! Get your lazy arse up to the school, waste 10 minutes in a queue, read them for a few minutes, have a bit banter with your mates that you will most likely see there, then the bus will be ready to take you home just in time for tea and crumpets.

I did politics a-level. Fucking horrendous.

 

Horrible isn't it ;)

 

did you do it in upper 6th aswell? I'm dropping it this year.

 

Upper 6th? Is it different over there like? The upper 6th was the year you took the exams, there was nowt at school after the A levels???? At least not in my time....

 

Oh and Id imagine its dropping you for next year with that result not the other way round.

1. There's upper and lower 6th. Lower = AS levels (50% of a full A Level) Upper = A2 (the other 50%). Add them together, bingo. It's the same over here as it is in England btw.

 

2. No, i tried to drop it before halloween but the stuck up cunts wouldn't let me, tried dropping it at christmas, still wasn't allowed. Then i just gave up.

That's the attitude, if something is hard then just give up. You'll go far in life with that attitude. ;)

 

It wasn't hard. I fucking despised the subject, despised the teachers, didn't want to do it, didn't choose it. Got forced into it by a teacher i've never seen in my life.

It's not as important as GCSE's or A2's but they're still important, I can repeat the modules in january. I'll be repeating the module's in business if i dont get an A and i'll repeat a module in ICT if i don't get a B

I disagree, it's what most universities will base their offers on, if you fuck them up you can wave goodbye to any chance of a decent uni/course.

Repeating modules? How does that work?

 

When I did A levels, you did a two year course, sat 2-3 three hour written exams (no course work), and that was that. If you failed, you resat the year (but the better universities wouldn't be interested in you if you failed first time), or you did something else.

 

No wonder there's grade inflation if you can keep taking modules until you get an A. :o

thats pretty much it renton, aside from getting to take them over and over mind, you get a second chance for your ASs though since you have a year left in the college system and your AS grades arent actually finally submitted til you finish the whole 2 year course

I didn't want to do the subject so why should i? fuck sake you get to choose your own alevels, i didnt choose this so i wasn't going to work for something i didnt want to do.

Then i just gave up.

Right say i get 44% in my module, i get a C overall (because of my coursework etc.). If I get 64% i get a B, so if i dont get that 64% i'm allowed to repeat it in january to get that grade, uni's don't see that you repeated though so they base it on your AS grades, not the repeated ones, so its best to pass first time round.

 

What the hell is a N?

 

lowest you can get. Don't like politics, forced into it, didn't work, didn't pay attention, took the hand on my exam.

 

It's a fail.

 

Are you shitting me ;) I thought it was a pass :o

 

 

:D

I dunno, maybe to get a decent grade and a few more UCAS points under your belt? Your teachers don't give a fuck whether you failed it or not, hoewever, you should.

It also doesn't exist any more Kevin....

 

The passing grades for A-levels are A*, A, B, C, D and E. The A* grade was introduced in September 2008 for higher education entry in 2010, and is awarded to candidates who achieve a score of at least 90% at A2 and achieved an A at AS level. There is no A* grade at AS or unit level. There was formerly an O grade, awarded to candidates who did not pass the advanced level exam, but were deemed to have attained a standard equivalent to ordinary level (O level). Grade F indicated a complete failure.

Grades

AS and A levels are graded A-E. An A* grade will be first awarded at A level in 2010. The results are announced in August and March.
