    Rate my Gp essay!!

    Yeah, try and study newspapers, if you are interested in the news. If not, then you should try reading novels. Grammar is not something you should burn into your memory. It kinda stays there when you know how to write a correct sentence.

    Rate my Gp essay!!

    Pardon me if I seem rude, but you wanted an honest opinion. Your essay reeks of desperation to impress, and lacks sufficient number of examples. You are skimming and not going directly to the point. Turn the dictionary to "aura" I think what you mean is "era" aura is a completely different...

    Chemistry A2

    Study all the organic portion, that's all. Organic chemistry is specially tough because they mix both AS and A2. Equilibria- not so much. Its all in the A2 portion. If they were to give only questions from A2 levels, there is not much in organic chemistry. The most important ones are reduction...

    What is the threshold mark to get an A* and 1 in each paper ???

    Its all computerized and analysed by the chief examiners so a certain percentage of the top students at the top get A's or B's. So if the number of students taking A levels has increased, then the number of students getting A's would also increase, hence creating the illusion that the thresholds...

    What is the threshold mark to get an A* and 1 in each paper ???

    If you get an A*, it means you are among the top 10% of the people who took A levels. A is top 20%, B is 30% and so on. A threshold is just the number you have to cross to get the particular grade. So if an A* threshold is 80, then you will get an A* if you get 80 or more. As for the 1's and...

    Do you think I need to retake any tests with these grades?

    Thanks for boosting my confidence. I'm thinking of taking Biology in A2 too and aim to upgrade my final result to an A in biology and A*s in the others. I was very unsure of GP because some of my friends who got B are retaking it. Guess I'll just be moving forward then, no looking back to AS...

    Now when the results are out ...

    An A asterisk will look good on your mark sheet. Looks like you have done pretty well in most subjects, so why not take the full A level for Eco if you are so eager to switch to commerce. And by the way, an 'A' in accounts?!?!?! Way to go, man!

    Do you think I need to retake any tests with these grades?

    Well, I took GP 8004 and Biology, both in which I got B's. I'm just wondering if I should retake them aiming for A. Specially GP, since I don't care much for Biology as I don't see it in my future and I'm unsure if a B in GP will make my college level application look good or bad. I am looking...

    A few things for Physics MCQ to remember (points that people usually forget or don't know at all)

    Hey, are you implying I'm a geek? Coz I'm absolutely not. Things that teachers say do not enter my head, but once I learn something by myself, I never forget it, and that's a handy ability to have, which has helped me in a levels.

    A few things for Physics MCQ to remember (points that people usually forget or don't know at all)

    q26: the path difference at the given point is half of a wavelength(count them) Use unitary method and you'll get the answer 14 is a question of moments. 30kn acting at the centre and opposing force is acting on the black part. So 30×10 = x × 20 and you'll get the answer 15. 15 use the concept...
