neylitalo Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Well, considering that I have no clue what AS/A is, I'm guessing I'm not waiting for mine. I'm a little curious as to what it is, though - can you educate me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
448191 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I'm thinking http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Level_(UK) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerRobot Posted August 16, 2007 Author Share Posted August 16, 2007 Apparently thats not an article, although this is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_level Anyways, A Levels are the exams you sit at the end of 6th form/college at 17/18 years old - the last thing before university. AS Levels are the first year of that(which is what im waiting for) but are still a qualification in their own right. Im not sure of the US equivilent, but they are roughly equivilant to the International Baccalaureat if you've heard of that one. University applications are pretty much dependant on these. If i dont get decent results this year, then there wont be any point in me applying to the best universities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oron Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 My brother just done his AS in computing and got an A. Rofl he got a U in maths though, B in Graphics and D in Physics, I heard maths is really hard though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewhaworth Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 My brother just done his AS in computing and got an A. Rofl he got a U in maths though, B in Graphics and D in Physics, I heard maths is really hard though. I got a C in maths, and it's the subject I care for the most, computing is nothing without maths. I got an A in computing, but hey, it's only AS Level, who can't. I didn't take physics, but I really wanted to later on. Meh. I'm dropping media (had to take it due to a cock up at the beginning of the year) for further maths.. fun fun fun lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerRobot Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Further maths is a bit of a bitch i have to say. Managed to get the A in it, but im really not looking forward to FP2. FP1 was hard enough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
