I thought 4 was a lot lol.0 -
7 exams, I'm only taking 6 A levels"Melancholy is incompatible with bicycling." ~James E. Starrs0

Back in my day 3 was normal. Must be all the dumbing down [where did I leave my pipe and slippers?]

Yeah, just didn't have room in the day to take many more!0

I'd say 3 or 4 is normal these days, I'm probably going to drop German after AS and do 5 A2s"Melancholy is incompatible with bicycling." ~James E. Starrs0

Ah, 6 AS levels, makes more sense (congrats by the way).
I did 5 A levels and it was flat out, had to teach myself most of one subject.0 -
German teachers are trying to get me to stick with 6 A levels but in all honesty I don't know if i can be arsed! Further maths is a hell of a lot of work
I'm having to teach myself a lot of Physics, one of our teachers is perpetually in and out of hospital and the replacement is a joke."Melancholy is incompatible with bicycling." ~James E. Starrs0 -
A level physics is/was pretty easy I found. Degree level though...0

As in the other thread, I did get bored. Prodding things, setting stuff on fire and creating clouds of steam is great, as is messing with deadly radioactive sources - but squiggly equations ;-)0

Yeah yeah it is, it's really just what GCSE should have been IMO!GHill wrote:BlackSpur wrote:Further maths is a hell of a lot of work
Guess which one I had to teach myself...
Must have taken some effort! I'm poor at teaching myself things, especially when it comes to maths. I think it might just be because i'm lazy!"Melancholy is incompatible with bicycling." ~James E. Starrs0 -

It did, and I didn't do that well (C overall, really struggled with further mechanics, which was 50% of the grade). But, I think it was good preparation for later years at uni and PhD, self-motivation is a huge factor at that point.0 -
Got mine today, pretty pleased.......but I only do 3 A2's and 1 AS....."If we all had hardtails we'd all go down the hill, just slower"

Ah Ok. Ich bin 75% Deutsch, also spreche ich auch deutsch :P. Ich moechte auch Physik machen - A Level. Hoffentlich ein paar jahre frueh. Ich mag Mathe nicht so dolle, glaubst du es lohnt sich es bei A-Level level as zu studiern?0 -

Ja bestimmt! Ich habe gelesen, dass Leute, die Mathe oder Physik A-Level haben, verdienen durchschnittlich 17% mehr in der Lebensarbeitszeit."Melancholy is incompatible with bicycling." ~James E. Starrs0
