WOOOOOO!

That overstated (depending on how you look at it) noise was that of me. I am happy. I can only thank the man upstairs that my exams are almost over. My GCSE's which are a pain. I have 2 more exams left in the next week or so then im done free to do what I want for 8 weeks! Wow! Maybe I'll get a job. I think i'll enjoy that.

Im just happy because I can now play Zoo Tycoon again and now talk to some of the greatest friends I have ever known. You guys!

Anyhow, so far I have taken 2 science, 3 english, 2 math, 2 geography and countless numbers of exams. The Technology was the worse, a 4 hour paper! One of my friends collapsed on the way out from exaustion of the frustrating exam. But its all over, well soon anyway.

That's great to hear Skippy! :D

I'm currently doing my end of year exams for Year 10 this week. I only have the maths exam to go now. They're kind of a mock mock exam in preperation for my GCSE's next year, which I'm reeeally looking forward to lol :grumpy:

I'm sure your results will be great ones! ;)

Hey no probs. They are the same as the GCSE's those mocks. If you pass them you'll pass your GCSE's. The worst was my 10 hour art exam. Split up into 2 days.

Maybe they should consider making the art one a portfolio like they have for AP here in the States.. I guess I'm glad I never had to take GCSEs! :unsure:

Glad to hear you're done with them and congrats to everyone who passed! :party:

Well, I could have done that portfolio sorta, but then I'd need to do art every day of the week. Which probabaly would have drove me nuts and left me with less options.

Thanks for your point on the mocks and GCSE's Skippy, that was quite reassuring - well providing I get good marks lol :D

I finished my Year 10 exams today and got a couple of results. I got a B on my Geography and I don't know exactly what I got for Biology because we were marking our own papers (well, a partner's paper anyway) and the teacher wanted to mark one of the questions herself but I think I did pretty well and could have got an A ;)

Awesome. I'll be lucky to get a C on many of my exams. I need a C in math and english and 2 other C's to do the course I want in college.

I know the feeling
I have exams to
last week, I had oral exams

A fact is a simple statement that everyone believes. It is innocent, unless found guilty. A hypothesis is a novel suggestion that no one wants to believe. It is guilty, until found effective.

I prefer oral, a lot of nerves but it doesn't take that long; and If you have good teachers it can be fun.

BTW actually it is:
Smashing through the boundaries,
Lunacy has found me
...
Battery is found in me ;)
