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.

    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last week, Rockstar revealed Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will be starting soon, and just a day ahead of that, now the studio has announced the official pricing for the highly anticipated game. This has been a hotly debated topic among fans and industry veterans for a long time, considering the game is expected to be the biggest entertainment product launch ever. The confirmed pricing for the Grand Theft Auto VI standard edition is $79.99, which Rockstar says gives access to the "single-player experience set in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet." This follows what most of our readers thought would happen with the pricing too. At the same time, a $99.99 Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition has been confirmed as well, which lands with "an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story." Pre-ordering will also give fans extra bonuses, including a Vintage Vice City Pack of cosmetic items as well as a free month of GTA+. Head to the official website of the game here to check out all the cosmetic rewards the Ultimate Edition and pre-orders bring. Interestingly, the studio does not mention Grand Theft Auto VI multiplayer at all in today's announcement. Perhaps this will arrive later, following the campaign launch, or the studio is keeping that reveal for a later date. Digital pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will begin on June 25, 2026, at midnight local time across regions for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The title is slated to launch on November 19 on those same platforms. Pre-loading for Grand Theft Auto VI will kick off on November 12, giving players a week to get the game ready on their consoles. As for the physical edition, Take-Two has confirmed that this will be available without a disc, with the box only containing a download code inside. This will be purchasable starting November 12, giving players who take this route time to pre-load the title as well.
    • Turbo Pascal was my first real programming experience more than 30 years ago at university. I mostly taught myself from the included examples and help documentation, because the university only taught the basic syntax and philosophy of Pascal, without going deeply into Turbo Pascal’s advanced features. I still remember when I discovered that I could embed assembly language directly into Pascal code, call BIOS functions, manipulate screen memory, use mouse interrupts, and control peripherals from my programs. That opened huge doors for me. Programming back then felt really fun, direct, and close to the machine. What I loved about Pascal was its readability and the almost instant compile time. Turbo Pascal was an amazing environment, but unfortunately Turbo Pascal for Windows 3 did not feel like it fully carried that legacy forward. Later, Delphi got things back on the right track after the messy transition to TP for Windows. Sadly, Delphi suffered from years of uncertainty as it moved from Borland to CodeGear and then to Embarcadero. That instability made many developers lose confidence in it, even though Delphi itself remained a powerful and productive tool. I still work with Delphi from time to time, but I definitely miss the old days of Turbo Pascal.
    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
