GO REVISE, SILLY PEOPLE

Will revise later, i'm not in the mood to revise now.

 

[leonheart_a]

I think it was unit 3

 

[Agjsdfd]

Oh god.
Anywayz, that means I am dead.

I already messed up badly unit 1(my prediction grade was A* and got D).
Doing Unit 1 again, thats no problem, but no chance of doing Unit 2 and 3 except doing the whole GSCE again...

Ach, by the way, did you do higher or foundation?
As I doing Higher in all subjects.

 

[leonheart_a]

I did foundation for biology

 

[Agjsdfd]

Yah makes sense.
I got 97.7% in the foundation mock. => pass mark needed was 60% to get into higher.
And 72% in the higher mock. => Pass mark needed was 40% to remain in higher.

Pff... am relieved, as I thought you did higher.

Thanks

 

[leonheart_a]

Its cool

Anyone got any good ideas on how to revise these damned poems?

 

[Mangofett]

Wow i found my Biology quite easy

Lucky ass, mine was as hard as fuck

(If youre talking about your final)

 

[Agjsdfd]

I gues you went through the poems with your class?

If you understand the poem, than theres nothing to revise.

Try to identify:
Imagery and what effect it has.
Adjectives => what effect again.

Enjambment, etc. and what does it do.

How the poem is written, and why you think its written like that.
Etc.


Basically you wont have time to explain all these points, but atleast try to follow this and you should be alrite

 

[leonheart_a]

Wow those points are actually really good, i just hate the fact that our board has given us a bunch of poems and said learn them all you'll only have about 3 of them in the exam

 

[Agjsdfd]

So did our exam board.

But we have a choice of "Section 1" poems and "Section 2" poems.

We coverd all the poems of section 1 and redone it over and over again. We didnt do Section 2 poems from the anthology, as we have the choice of comparing poems either from section 1 or section 2.
But I could go through section 2 poems, but those are much bigger and tougher LOL. So I will leave it.

 

[leonheart_a]

Is your exam board for english Edexcel?

 

[Agjsdfd]

Nope AQA.

I have edexcel on Maths GCSE and German AS. The rest are AQA.

Also for the poems, you could quickly go over what links them together (memories, certain feelings?) so if you get asked to compare 2 poems in the exam with the same theme or whatver, you dont have to think about it for ages.

Yah, we did that circle thingy with all those poems, and found out the similar themes, or any link.

Our English teacher is really good(and sexy)

 

[leonheart_a]

Ahh alright then.
Revising sure does suck =p

 

[Calafas]

Haha, yeah, I Dont know what to revise for media texts, so im not bothering, and history...well...will go over it a bit in bed later.

 

[Agjsdfd]

Its really easy in GCSE. But if you wanna get into a good uni, you better dont mess around in AS, and A2.
AS German is so tough. Wanted to do french aswell, but I think German and English is more than enoguh.

 

[Calafas]

I'm doing Maths, Physics, History and ICT for AS/A level

Hard work. :/

 

[Agjsdfd]

Maths, Physics and ICT => quite good combination.
But why History? lol.

I will do(2008/2009):
AS:
Biology
Chemistry
Maths
Physics
A2:
German

than in 2009/2010

A2:
Biology
Chemistry
Physics

Than in A2 I will drop maths. That will count as:
4 and half A levels. 4 Complete and 1 half

Shudnt be hard if I spend less time online next year. LOL

 

[Calafas]

Haha, im gonna hafta be on less too. :/ And 'cause I needed to do 4, and I fairly enjoy History, so figured I may aswell go for it. (not to mention the history trips are fairly cool)
