Done english and electronics today.......both easy really, apart from one impossible question on a 10 bit decade counter that we have NEVER studied. As daeneth said the exam is a lot more resistant materials than it is electronics, for example we had a question about vac forming......yeah like thats about electronics. Anyone else on here take electronics? (OCR)

Seeing as you have one Science Paper left, and yuou only have two papers, it means that you're doing dual award Science, which isn't higher, it's more like intermediate

Sorry, it was just bugging me :pinch:

Correct me if I'm wrong

Actually yeah you're right, I explained it wrong.

I was thinking of him doin tripple Science, so he gets 3 GCSE's instead of 2. I forgot that we (Dual Award) could get top grades still.

But after seeing how well your sis did, why didn't she do tripple Science?

I dont think she knew. And neither was there any need really, she's got good results from other subjects, etc., so why put more pressure on by taking more exams.

In my school they have the same amount of lessons, but they just work through it at a faster rate. The downside is you have more exams and modules but the positive is that if you suck at Biology you can get good grades on the other two as they are all seperate exams unlike dual where if you suck on one it will affect your overall grade

tripple science, that doesnt exist.  No one in my school are taking tripple science

Maybe your school doesn't do it, my cousins school doesn't either. I'm guessing you go to Comprehensive school? I go to Grammar and they do them there, if you're good enough that is.

    • I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake

      By Taliseian · Posted

      There is a long thread (128pgs and counting) that I've been following over at ElevenForums that has a method for updating Secure Boot even if there is no BIOS upgrade. I've used this method and had zero issues. NOTE:  I do not take any responsibility if this or any other Secure Boot method bricks your system -- YMMV!  Read carefully before using!
