I guess most people have finished them by now.
I have 6 GCSEs left. Sadly I was feverish when I did my English and Geography, so I'm unlikely to do too well in them.
I still don't know how I managed to put South Park and Monty Python references, and a page on magic and social structure into the English paper.
English Literature was strange...
English Language 1 was cool.
Maths 1 made we want to cry. That was hard...
Biology was fine.
French wasn't so bad.
I have about 8 to go, I think.

So much.
First Maths was weird. Half was amazingly easy, a quatre was trickey and the last bit was just random stuff I had never been taught.
What exam board did you take it with? I just realised that we might be talking about different papers.

Edexcel I think. The one everyone complains about. You're probably doing the Welsh exam board one or something?
I don't think it matters too much though. They always seem screwed up when you take them.
No, I'm Edexcel too. What the hell was that probability question at the end about?
I'm going to have to do well on the calc now...

Yes I know. I mean it had no connection at all
Just for anyone else who is interested it was something like:
EDIT: Best of luck with it. Just think of all the other people suffering with you...
I solved the quadratic in part A, but what the F*** did it have to do with the probability?
Edit-The equation was 2n^2, not n^2

It was great going back into education as a mature student and doing what I wanted to do (ancient history and archaeology). Not that maths bollox you guys are talking about And all the other things you probably couldn't give a stuff a bout
Good luck

Thinks back to the halcyon days of GCSE, when I did no work...
Thinks back to just before the exams I had this term, when I did no work and went out all the time. I think now is better. Especially as I've just finished, paving the way to yet more drunken mayhem.
No more exams for the forseeable future (At least until part-finals, or prelims again if I've failed, or mods if I succeed in changing course)
Yeah me too. Made sense up to that point, I don't think anyone managed to work it out.
Exams? I finished those up a month ago, did good on them too, at least I assume I did because my grades were great
Trick is to tie everything to something the teacher emphasized, WWII, or some obscure reference that had *something* to do with the subject.
This tricks never fail me, still love how I tied up the abuse of native americans to the american involvement in WWII among other things.

Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.
what are u mad you dont talk about exams if you dont talk about them, you can pretend they dont exist

My politics exams went well, a lot of the discussions in this forum helped me aswell as other things. I should get a very good mark - I hope.
History went OK, though it was fairly hard. The 2 essays on Mussolini's Italy were tough and so was Russia in revolution paper, however the Germany paper was easier. Not sure how I have done.
Philosophy and Economics on Monday, need to revise a lot because there is a hell of a lot to cover :|
GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

the trick in a history exam is to put in completely irrelevant historical points (like talking about Napoleon's dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire in an essay on the treaty fo Versailles)

make history up then you can do what CA do your great heroes
On Monday I have the middle of my three science tests, not too trickey but still loads to revise. Then English Media (which basically means looking at a newspaper article and saying how the pretty colours make it sell better - yes this is for proper English, not even Media Studies...).
Tuesday is Maths (might be easy, might be a nightmare) and History 1 (International Relations 1919-89 and the Russian Revolution - how did they manage to put so many bloody Russian names into one paper?).
Then another science and history the week after, then a summer of freedom
schools out for me

History soon (not good).
Maths was ok, first bit of mental work out I have had recently. The other exams are just writing effort or knowledge, and require no mental effort.
History was much easier than I thought it would be.

Well. I just found my results out.
Good news is, I passed my physical chemistry and my mathematics.
Bad news is, I failed my organic chemistry and my inorganic chemistry.
Looks like I'm going to have to change my location tag.
school gt out a while ago... and I passed all with A's and a B. Curse that B
"And one should bear in mind that there is nothing more difficult to execute, nor more dubious of success, nor more dangerous to administer than to introduce a new order to things; for he who introduces it has all those who profit from the old order as his enemies; and he has only lukewarm allies in all those who might profit from the new. This lukewarmness partly stems from fear of their adversaries, who have the law on their side, and partly from the skepticism of men, who do not truly believe in new things unless they have personal experience in them."
~ Niccolo Machiavelli
