biology was the weirdest exam ever. especially the one about the pool in Uganda and many like them... I was thinking they should put thermostatically contolled heaters and automatic food dispesers for the fish but it's effin UGANDA!!!! where will they find those stuff??? I wrote them anyway haha :D

some people thought it was easy, some people like me hated it... And today I did AS Maths C2 (I know this is not the place for it) and EVERYONE thought it was INSANELY hard... Just terrible.

Answer sounds right, even though I don't know the subject of the question. Probably about controlling variables.

I've done the maths IGCSE last year, and I'm doing double maths A-Level so I'm doing the first 2 papers of AS maths this year, 5 papers next year, 5 papers the year after... And IGCSEs from all the other lessons...

If I was to do 1 a-level from maths, I would have done only the C1 this year for maths and 2 papers next year, 3 the year after...

In Biology, i mixed up the axes. I put time in the x-axis instead of y-axis, so i got totally opposite graph. Will I get 0 out of 6?

You would lose the axis mark (1 mark). 5/6 if everything else is correct.

Are you saying that because you regret doing double maths??

I don't regret doing double maths but C2 was too hard in comparison to the other papers so I'm just afraid how the other papers will turn out to be next year and the year after...
