    First lesson: One "R", 2 "F"s. All the nublets have to be taught that one.

    BTW, I'm doing chemistry, biology, further maths, history and an extended project on history, philosophy and ethics of science.

    Re: GCSE results today...

    I thought critical thinking was more of a skill set than a teaching subject. Still, well done on your results

    Cool, I did chemistry, if you do the edexcel board I have got tons of past papers, notes, etc on the pc that might be some use to you

    I also did AQA business studies, which I assume is similar to applied business. If you have a good teacher, learning business can be quite fun.

    You'll have more options open to you at Uni if you do Maths over Computing... Computing at A level is so outdated... and a lot of the uni's will prefer Maths as it's a science/engineering. I found that a lot of the courses I wanted to do, i couldn't as I didn't have maths (if I had done it, I would have failed anyway)

    I didn't do either Maths or Computing at A-Level and still achieved quite a bit... Just stick to the sciencey things. (computing is just maths, physics and a bit of magic at the end of the day anyway!)

    Oh and I got a D in GCSE IT (don't get rhumatic flu and tonsillitus the week before the exam... that was a guaranteed A*...)
