DS is going back to school on wednesday to start 9 papers of as level

it feels as if his GCSEs are barely over and he has only done one term of 6th form

anyone else dcs in this boat - it feels relentless!

My DS is doing 5 AS levels but I think he only has 3 modular examinations coming up.

Yep, been there! Is it sciences or Maths as they seem to have the most papers!

DD is re-sitting 2 modules to get higher marks towards next years A2's.

When we were at school lower sixth was a great year with no exams. It's never ending now.

yes ds is doing maths and 2 sciences but critical thinking as well

i know lower 6th was a relaxing social year!

not now!

Ah, but if his is like DD's school, they will have LOTS of 6th form parties, (taking over a club etc) and birthday parties, exam parties and many other excuses

Also, any modules CAN be re-sat if needed.

Good luck to your DS.
