GCSEs, Hell on earth

[Mr Jake]

I did the higher MAth

I cocked up and only found the last question with 5 minutes to go

but other than that is was easy enough. I gotta do module 10 math in a few weeks


Btw, there are 2 poem papers
one for English Lit and one for English.

Im not sure what tomorrow is, Im taking the book incase, its not hard to leave it in my coat at the back of the Gym.

[Chicky]

mwahahahaha! told you it was creative writing tommorow daz. yeh im hoping on a question of writing a letter persuading some guy to do somthing special.

infact the chances are that's one of the questions, i bet all you guys a cookie that we'll have a question on writing a letter...

yup, letter it is

[Chicky]

hey! look who gets all the cookies. Mann was that exam easy, i totally abliterated it. Had to ask for additional paper  was the only one

how'd everyone else do?

[Privateer Puddin']

Asking for additional paper isn't always good, it can mean you've just talked about nothing  for too long Quality > Quantity

[Chicky]

way to go piss on my hotdogs...


yeh but i know,  that was going through my mind all the way through the exam.

basicly i made sure i got solid points down first, and then continued my point through explaining how it effects other things.

I was doing the retard paper though 

[Mr Jake]

I did the question about 'Give Advice to Students looking for jobs' - as soon as I started I switched to 19 year old blonde prep girl mode

[Daz]

i did the question on the ban of saturday jobs, i did pretty well on it i thought but like OSC i did the retard paper

yeey RS tomorrow 1 and 3/4 hours of writing about crap

[Mr Jake]

[Sam.]

u guys all do the AQA right? i'm on the welsh board (damn crazy school) so i wrote a crappy ressay on a dentists office and one about a murderer. really boring but easy

The Science Exam!!!

Remember all those experiments you did for the past however-many-years before the GCSE? No, me either! That's why you have to perfect the art of bluffing. If you can't remember an experiment, lie. Make one up. I had to write up an experiment on measuring the frequency of soundwaves or something. I forget. So many years ago. Or more to the point, one. Anyway, I couldn't for the life of me remember, so I invented my own method! Put metal filings on a piece of paper, and put the paper on top of a radio and turn on the radio. Measure the seconds between each time the iron filings hop.

Of course, you and I know that that makes no sense whatsoever, but I guess I must have got points for it. Because I did pretty well in science, overall.


The Geography Exam!!!!

If you can't think of case studies, make one up! They're not going to know that Mount Tibblelittle in India doesn't exist. Unless they're really, really nerdy.



And finally, a little, true story about ... The English Exam!!!

I remember my English exam so well. It was a baking hot June day, and my mother had given me a pre-exam present of a pen with vanilla-smelling ink.

"Thanks, Mom." I said, uncertainly, as she gave it to me that morning.

"It smells of Vanilla." She said helpfully. "Now you can pretend your sister ate your homework. Get it?!?? Ha ha ha!!! Because it smells of ice cream!!!" She hit me in the arm, hard.

I stared at her, and wondered if she knew I had an exam that morning.

"Besides which," she added, after she had finished laughing, "You can use it for inspiration if you get writers' block. You sniff the ink," she took the pen and inhaled from the nib deeply, "and then you get high. You'll have all sorts of wonderful ideas."

For some reason, my recollection of the English exam gets a little hazy at parts. Anyway, as it happened, one of the Comprehension exercises on the paper that year was a story about a boy eating ice cream. It was so cruel. For two and a half pages, front and back, the story described the way this boy ate ice cream. Vanilla Icecream. From a cone. As I was reading, I was aware of the burning June sun pouring through the large windows of the exam room. I could almost smell the vanilla. And then, I realized I probably could.

I don't know what happened after that. I woke up to find Breda punching me in the chest and screaming, "Wake up, nerd! Wake up, nerd!" I think I might have swallowed some of the ink at some point, because I was coughing up blood and it was inky and smelled of vanilla.

I sat the rest of the exam in mild pain. Then, I doodled some Vanilla Cones on the Answer Paper. And then I went to the hospital for about an hour until we started our Math exam.

In conclusion, it's probably a good idea just to bring ordinary pens to the English exam, because you never know what they might hit you with.

haha i didn't geography i did history (which has much less coursework and has better videos)

about the RS thing i didn't do any coursework for that either and it is 1 and 3/4 hours

[Privateer Puddin']

geography coursework was rather easy, easier than history for me (did one piece while ill and missed the trip D: )

Just did 2 AS History exams, fun!

[Daz]

[Chicky]

[Daz]

In conclusion, it's probably a good idea just to bring ordinary pens to the English exam, because you never know what they might hit you with.
