I'm either confused or getting old or both but can someone in the know please tell me why my local comp has GCSE results for Biology, Physics, Chemistry AND Additional Science? I thought Additional Science was the other three and that you would therefore take a GCSE in Additional Science that included the other three not four separate GCSE's to include Bio,Phy,Chem and Additional Science. The number of entries is different so I know that those taking the three subjects didn't also necessarily take the Additional Sci exam. I am so confused. The pass rate for the Add Sci was really low for a school that apparently has a reputation for its science! Can't we just bring back the 3 original subjects like the good old days, I understood it then.
