how good is everyone at tests

[Huw Dawson]

SATs:
Maths   - 8
English - 7
Science - 7

I also already have two C's - did them last year - and am probably going to get high grades on most of my exams. \o,

is it just me or did everyone who posted do better than the (english) national average. Don't know about the american average myself.

But average in c/d in GCSEs and same in a levels

Does this mean that AGS users are just smater than average or the ones with low scores don't wish to tell us about it?

as for me

Gcses
drama - A* (woo) english - A Maths - A History - b Food technology - C science - A
Religious studies - C

A levels
Maths - Ungraded (means I failed so bad that i don't even get a mark, not sure what happened there)
Media studies A
History D
drama C

Now at university

I have seen a few posts of people worried about tests... seriously the more you worry the worse it will be. Don't spend all night before cramming, you probably won't renember anyway, your brain will appreciate sleep more.

And don't do what my friends did and come to an exam rather drunk! they failed and slept in it.

I don't regard my pathetic grades as sign of my own intelligence. Mind you, my best friend at school got only one A and he's REALLY smart at maths and Geography etc!

So my maths sucks. So what? I've made a decent adventure game, wrote some fine music if I do say so myself, can use most popular PC applications and my English is pretty good.

But hey, lets not get confused with intelligence and education. The smartest mind in history might not have been able to read, but could employ amazing tactics on the battlefield in war. Or something.

i actually did my tests with less than 5 hours sleep a night for 3 weeks.

I average around 40% - 50% for most of my subjects, excepting computer studies which I average around 90%.

Pretty weird eh? (I am trying harder now, I'm hoping to raise most of my marks by about 10%, last term I raised my aggregate by 9.2%!)

(blame AGS!!)
