Today we had our General Studies mock exam papers back. I got 51/60 - 85%. Most people got 30-40 out of 60.

The mark for an A? 37. *62*% (yes, rounded up.)

General Studies is a joke exam, and I will spend no more time worrying about it.

General studies was quite a fun paper to do really. For most people sitting A-levels, I should think that there'd be a few bits that are fairly easy (the maths bit really shouldn't trouble anyone doing maths A-level, for instance), so you can go through them fast, and have plenty of time for the other bits, which are sort of interesting, because they're the sort of thing you don't get much chance to do. And there isn't really any pressure on it in most cases either.

(and I got an A)

No, I refuse to explain.

Neil, who notes that it's not worth worrying about them even if you were failing them, no-one on the planet cares about them.

I do. It'd be a shame if I manage to get As in everything else, and then drop a grade on General Studies.

Not worth worrying about jaffa cakes? Pah! An insult!
