So in other words "it doesn't matter if other people are pressured once it's not me!"?

If this isn't your attitude towards the Leaving you need a smack on the head. :P

What's not as intensive as Geography? Careful now

TBH I think there is just as much writing in geo than in history..

Anyway something like tech or construction would be perfecto for tomorrow rather than geo

Absolute bs tbh!

I could see the argument for going for something more practical like tech or construction all right, but the students who do those might not agree.

Give them a break they've been doing practicals and making projects all year :pac:

That's the kind of response they'd get to a move like that

Yeah but then, where does geography go?

Tech and construction are one of the graveyard subjects*




*I refer to any exam after the 15th as a graveyard subject.

History is no walk in the park, 40/50 or so 3-4 page essays or more if you cover the course well, that's without even adding on the fringe topics like culture and technology. And you can't bluff history!

I never said History was easy, I know it's very hard, that's why I said I'm glad I don't do it

Half an hour study for technology and if you had any brain at all you'd get a B1.

It really would make more sense than geography, sure f*ck it! last day ever talking about stupid rocks tomorrow

It's easy if you enjoy it, which I do, just like telling stories, very informative ones haha

History is cool leav it alone :P I remember last year for the history exam I wrote something like 25 pages and didn't finish the last part of dbq section :P but that's only cause I have ridiculously long essays and can write super fast

Let's all just be glad that English Paper 1 and 2 aren't on the same day like the pre 2008 years.


6 hours and 10 mins of writing in one day?

NOPE.

Christ. That'd be like 30 pages or 40 if you're someone who writes loads

How vital is Brazil for geography? All nighter...

Does anyone have the timing for OL Geography? Would really appreciate it, was familiar with HL Geography but not 100% sure with this

Tertiary is highly tipped due to the World Cup.

8 hours to cover a course...be grand hahaha

Days 298

OL English was a good choice for me. 1 days study and 60 points in the bag and avoided all the stress I saw some people under about the poets. That said some of the smiles and mini celebrations as people opened their papers was golden and nice to see.

Would have only got a C1 or C2 with hours and weeks of study in HL. My backup if one or more of the subjects goes to crap.

Good luck tomorrow everyone. I feel for those doing geo and HL maths, thankfully Im not one
