Default Exams
Dreaded time of the year, exams are here!

I have my first biology paper (60 mins) tomorrow followed by my physical geography paper (90 mins) on Tuesday.

Actually feeling pretty confident for my bio, in mocks Ive got D > low C > high C so hopefully I can get a B in the real thing! Geog on the other hand, dayuuuuuum, even though its my favourite subject I just cant get the case studies around my head :'(


Good luck guys who have them!!!

Advice on Geo, make it up if you can't remember it like, as long as you can remember the basics of what happened and how bad it was, the figures don't really matter as long as they're in the right region

I've just got Economics, History & English, and I did well last year and on my coursework so I'm not as worried as a lot of people, as long as I dont mess them up badly I should get the grades I need

Biology went alright, think I got that B, and Physical Geog went better than I expected, maybe a high C/low B

I have an exam everyday next week
Chemistry 1
Human Geog
Method Psychology
Biology 2
Chemistry 2

Then a 10 day gap until Study Cases Psychology, not gonna bother revising for that until then

My exams finish tomorrow.

They aren't GCSE's though - just ones that decide what GCSE level [Foundational or Higher] you go in.

Everyone is all 'Ahh I hate exams'.
But I love them sfm.

The days go so quicker, I just sit there with my iPod in listening to it on shuffle for 6 Hours straight - and then you get loads of days off to Study.


Exams FTW.

Nope, they search you for Phones and iPods.

But I have to go to a separate hall - for kids with disabilities and mental illnesses and that - and you do it there and they don't search you.

So I put my iPod earphone up my sleeve and my iPod in my shirt pocket - then I put my hand beside my ear and lean on the desk; which I always do anyway rofl.

So they don't suspect a thing.
