Thanks! =D
Well I did this weird GNVQ based science course. It worked out to around 4 GCSEs... They're not as important as an actual GCSE though... Its a long story why I was doing that. Just say I moved to a different school and for some reason they thought I was stupid and put me into the bottom set for most subjects. I worked my way up but it was too late to get into the actual GCSE class.
>_<

Well getting the equivelent of 4 Bs in GCSE for being considered dumb is better than only getting 1 or 2 (in my school's case; or 3) GCSEs. I can only get 2 from my Science course. I fear in Maths I'll do the same as you, Ramz. I really don't feel like I can pass it at the moment. If only we had a better teacher. Her methods are very bad for me and I don't seem to learn much. The better treacher which I had for year 9 is teaching bottom set. What a waste since most of them just mess around all through the lesson. Another thing I feel I'm gonna fail in is Art, although Shophie said to me it is very easy to pass with a C in it. Oh, didn't you do ICT, Ramz?

Clearly Will and Richard need Rupert as their maths teacher, don't they Ran-Ran? ^_^ Oooh, my brother got him this year, so my parents are really pleased (I've probably already said that, now that I come to think of it ...).

Another thing I feel I'm gonna fail in is Art, although Shophie said to me it is very easy to pass with a C in it. Oh, didn't you do ICT, Ramz? Much to my annoyance I wanted to explore my skills in Science (Biology and Chemistry) but no! because I got a D in the maths exam they won't touch me. Biology will accept a C but chemistry requires a B... *sigh* No way I am getting that. Biology is so close though... So i feel like all my hard efforts in that science work are wasted almost... I did overtime till like 6 after school everytime and stopped being as social as i was... And that maths thing isn't looking any good here... The maths teacher i have seems a bit out of loop... So i doubt i'll gain a C. And as for whats happening to you Rich, having a good teacher is the main tihng in getting a good grade for most people it seems... I only got a good teacher for maths two months prior to the maths exam and i swear to god if it wasn't for him I would have not got that D whcih I am pleased with. And I couldn't agree more about the good ones teaching the ones who DON'T want their GCSEs. Its laughable. And as for the art thing... Don't worry, it always seems like that with the secondary sort of subjects. I was done for a D one point in history (Well throughout the whole damn thing) but i proved 'em all wrong and got a B which i am pleased with. And yeah i am doign ICt... Got it tomorrow thank god. Sorry for the long post! Stressed as it is and feel like a bloody good rant. And Sophie, does that maths dude do travelling? XD

That really sucks about the science. I can understand why needing good Math is important in Phsyics, but why Biology and Chemistry? Hmm, I might just try teaching myself the Math with web sites. It probably won't do much good, but I can barely remember anything she teaches us. >_< Haha, I doubt I'll prove anyone wrong in Art, and to be honest, I'm not bothered one bit. It's just Maths I'm bothered about. It's only those I'm expecting to fail. Everything else I think I can get a B or higher for, especially English.

Well, I've had a change of heart about Maths. Hayley said I'm being really stupid worrying about it and I'll pass easily. Secondly, I got a D back in module 7 half way through year 10, which I'm resiting soon. I think I'll be able to get a C now. I mean, I've had plenty of time to improve. I just hope I have. Plus, I learned today that I don't need any GCSEs to get into a web design course, so I'm fairly happy about that, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna stop trying. I expect for programming courses, I'll need a C or higher in Maths.

If you're wanting to go into some sort of scientific field, they usually expect some sort of good maths grade too, especially if you're planning on going into medicine. One of my friends wants to be a vet and she had to take two sciences and a maths (biology and chemistry, I think). Likely she's good at them.
Ran-Ran, Frances and I are missing you! How's CRC going? I'm assuming you've started by now ...

I miss you guys too! We have to meet up sometime and catch up! CRC is good thankye. I got told today that if I want to do work experience then I can do it basically anywhere because my tutor for music industry stuff like knows everyone or something. So thats good! And.. yeah, hopefully am going to start putting on club nights/gigs in Cambridge to tie in with my radio show. I know its not really your scene but it'd be great if you came! Hows sixth form? Ooh and can you tell Frances I met Pete Doherty please and he was the loveliest person on earth? I keep meaning to text her but I have no credit

I'm glad you're enjoying yourself ^_^. I'll tell Frances all of that (she was getting confused because we were taklking and she said that someone she was talking to said that you were going to Long Road but we both knew you weren't, so we were trying to work out what that was all about). Sixth Form is cool but you would probably be annoyed with it being too similar to how school was before. Still, it's fun lording it over the little kids in High School now, like when you're walking through the corridors, listening to music, during a free period or something xD.

Who the hell said I was going to Long Road?! Anyway, if Sixth Form is like school then you're right, I would get annoyed. Would have been fun to walk down the corridors listening to music though! Ah well... I'm really glad I went to CRC now.
