should not bang on about how gcse's are getting easier (and as/a2/degrees)
- kids take about 11-12 gcse's now istead of the 6-7 o levels
- they sit exams year round from the start of year 10/4th year
- they do exams in year 10 which means less time to prepare and learn the topics
- coursework isnt written for you by your teachers and you cant get much help off them
- it is moderated so thoroughly it is impossible for teachers to bump your grade
- the percentage of A/A* students might be rising but so is the percentage of U/G/F/E/D students
and im working my poor little arse off trying to pass them and my bloody grandfather (and other family members) keep telling me that they are really really easy
bet he wont be saying that down the golf club if i get straight A's, he'll be like "my granddaughter got straight A's"
idiots
sorry this is more about my grandad than old people in general lol
i just needed a rant
