Il be fine I think in every subject , but I just don't know about maths , did ol and just bricking it

Corvo Attano

I did OL too and I agree it was very different to how we were prepared.

Chemistry was the most different.

I'm interested to see how I did in biology thought the paper was different than other years :cool:

Edit: and maths.. Failed the mocks so just hoping for a D3 :P

Corvo Attano

Chemistry has to contend for the worst. The same fella had drawn it up for the past 10 - 15 years so the papers were predictable as fúck.

His wife died this year and someone else drew it up for the first time.

FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU >_>

Oh yea I ****ing loved it because I had put a lot of time and knew a load of the small things they brought up but from an objective stand point it was as different as two chemistry papers could be and anybody who was hoping on prediction and routine was undoubtedly fúcked over royally.

I honestly don't know how it went....
I was hoping for an A1 as per usual but It was way to weird..... B2 please God!

Anything 300+ please!

I have my driving test the following morning (also my birthday), so no shenanigans for me that night. Do have a drink (and a pray) for me everyone.

I'm pretty sure that no matter what I get, I'll be unhappy, I have ridiculous expectations.
I would love the 625, but I think it's more likely I get around 570-ish because far too many of my exams were on the verge between grades, and some were just tragic. Curse my laziness. I have my course though so it'll all turn out fine in the end.

Found This Fork Sir

You could sympathize while shouting if that helps? Or give out in a sympathetic tone of voice. I shall accept both graciously

YOU KNOW YOU DID GREAT AND SAYING YOU'D BE UNHAPPY WITH 570 IS JUST SHOWING OFF! BUT ALL IN ALL I'M SURE YOU DID GREAT GRRRRRRRRR

I thank thee! Nah, I honestly will be annoyed with myself results day though no matter what I get, I do not want the day to exist, everyone's expectations of what you're going to get freak me out too much.

Corvo Attano

Corvo Attano

Shes right. 625 is an unrealistic expectation.

I use violence to get all my messages through

It is me knowing I probably won't get that much even if I'd want it, but everyone is expecting it of me as it is, so results day will be disgusting.

It's all about personal aims though, if someone fails in their aim then they are going to be disappointed and they are perfectly entitled to be.

It is this, I could not have said this better.

Corvo Attano

But any maximum is an unrealistic aim because realistically very few people get the maximum.

That being said in the back of everyones head is the wish to get the most possible points. The system dosent work so well if that wasnt in our competitive nature.

And Fork look at it this way. How did the superpowers stop nuclear war?

HugsiePie

I misunderstood the message, I thought he meant that everyone else was aiming so high that he wanted 625 because of it, not his relatives/teachers/friends expectations of him





But still 570 IS A WHOOPER! I think les than 1 percent get over 560 points
