People Doing A levels.........

[Dazed]

How have your jan exams gone? I'm doing A2 biology, maths and business studies and they've all been ridiculously hard. Really doubting going to uni now.
Anyone else feeling the same?

I'm doing business studies, financial studies and IT, everyone seems to push you into going to uni but i really don't fancy it myself, i have applied and got conditional offers but i plan on taking a gap year to have time to think and get a job somewhere that i feel would interest me and see how i get on.

biology is easy, just memorise a lot of words and some diagrams and its done!

Yeh that's basically what i'm doing for now, just gonna see how it goes.

Ha, easier said than done! Especially at A2 when you have to go into so much depth.

ICT 20 hour exam was deadly, we had that the week before xmas over 5 days, the Business Studies exam wasn't too hard, was piss easy tbh, but I bet I only get a low grade for it :n:

[Bound]

Business studies? Hard?

I didn't even do it (well, about 2 weeks of it), did it at GCSE, and seen the work though,

Business studies is anything but hard :p.

Then again, I quit A2 cause it was shit.

[Bound]

However props on Maths and biology, I know they're difficult.

[MrChris]

Doing applied business, history, drama nd geography.

Only had geog this Jan, and went alright but not overly happy with it.
Business is 66% coursework based and I got a high B in my first piece, and only need 4 more marks when i redo it for an A.
Drama is killing me, so much coursework and it dont even make sense.
History is just so much to learn!

Not looking forward to May/June exams :(

Its alot more in depth than GCSE, kinda pushing me to my limits.
Theres no way of coasting or being lazy in A levels :(

I thought id done really bad in mine. But turned out I'd done a lot better than I expected. So hopefully this will be the case for you.

Not as easy as that. I enjoyed doing it but never performed well in exams and found it hard to express things in the way the exams wanted even though i knew the stuff alright. I got a C at AS and ended getting an E at A2. This was 3 years ago though lol. Although i did get a B at business A2
