Mark 0 Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 I actually miss exams, I used to find them easy. Except for anatomy, which I failed 3 times before passing, but then I had extenuating circumstances. Some of the exams today are a bit of a joke though - I have been told from a reliable source you can get a C at A level Maths with 17% 77628[/snapback] Thats bollocks, you need 60% to get a C, you need 40% to pass. 77629[/snapback] Aye, I got 29/70 in my C1 mock and got a U. Are they bollocks easy nowadays. Or maybe I'm just really thick. 77639[/snapback] I thought you were a total swat? I'm resitting C2 on Monday, can't wait!

I took C1 last year and got an A in my mock and came out with a D. C2 I got an E last time, its easy compared to C3, so I should get a C hopefully.

Traditionally a C pass has always been around the 40-45 % mark I thought, 60 % would normally definitely be a B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rikko 20 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 my last exam is hopefully june 2006. On that premise i had my 7th last one today on the exhilarating world of "water & waste water engineering". The fun just increases tomorrow as i have to write about "waste management & minimisation".

geordieshandy 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I'm invigilating my first one on Wednesday morning, well assistant invigilation at any rate. Should be exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheMan 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Always feel sory for the invigilators, they always look bored as fuck. Fairly complicated now actually with all the different modules and extra time and stuff. Ever had a phone go off in one of your exams? Dunno whether you mean first ever or first this year.

geordieshandy 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 First ever actually Dan, I could have done it this time last year but had a few other things up in the air. I think I've got mostly Agric exams to do, poncy agric students always used to piss me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheMan 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Ah right. I guarantee you'll be bored of invigilating within a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordieshandy 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Don't doubt that for a second, but the extra cash is necessary. I doubt there'll even be any good perving to be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
