Back

After the summer holiday (whose duration seemed to be only a few days), I'm back at the sixth form. Again. It's difficult to believe that I was almost looking forward to getting back - having settled once more into the usual grind, lie-ins seem almost a distant memory and the deluge of work is not pleasant.

On a happier note, I did eventually recieve my AS results; however, I simply couldn't be bothered to update. They went as follows:

Chemistry - A. I was relieved, as I thought my performance in the summer exam wasn't great (I was right; it was a B).
Physics - A. Again, relief - I actually managed 98% on the summer exam despite thinking that I had made a huge number of mistakes!
Computing - A. My coursework dragged it down as I thought, but the exams were so easy that it was pulled up without any difficulty.
General Studies - A. Easy, 'nuff said.
Mathematics - B. It should have been higher, but I missed several marks off both due to a question in each of the two Core papers that threw me off. Sadly this meant that I couldn't get an A.
Philosophy - a surprising C (two papers were Bs, but it was dragged down). I was shocked at this for certain!
