i found out on wednesday that i needed to get a b in physics to take it in higher otherwise it was pottery for me (why would i want to do pottery?!) so i revised 5 hours on thursday from 5 till 10 and the same on Friday to pull my grade up from a d to a b in 2 days, sat the exam and got 2 b's but was 2 marks of an a!!!!
im not doing pottery!

i want to do computer science in uni but i cant take higher computing and int2 maths so i need to settle for a higher in maths an a higher in computing, i can still get it with a higher but i would prefer advanced higher

What is int2 maths? Do you mean double maths?

What is this higher and advanced higher thing too?

[Cew27]

its the scottish equivalent of a levels and the one above it
also it turns out i got an over all A he marked it wrong !!!!!!!!!

[Mike0001]

Great news! So you get your results immediately?

[Cew27]

[Mike0001]

oh, these are mock exams?

[Cew27]

one before christmas and one after
if you are ill during the real exams these are used for appeal
also these decide weather you are let into the classes you want to get into

[Mike0001]
