hey a levels people! do you think i should take math in my a levels? o_O i have not studied add math nor am i super brainy in mathematics..
I think a-levels maths is easy (maybe its coz I love maths :D).. esp if you find a good teacher.... besides add maths is not a prerequisite for it...
more imp question is what other subjects are you giving....???

hmm... if you are a hard worker you can easily manage maths... otherwise, its a no-no.. coz I believe focusing to get A grades in a few subjects is better than getting C and B in many....

but the second thing you should keep in mind is, would it help you in ur future..? like if you're certain u only wanna go for a medical uni then maths is useless but if u wanna keep ur options open and you have engineering interests, do go for maths...

Hey guys just a random question, you can't get an A* in AS right?
You can't. There are some people in AS who give an accelerated subject though (which includes both the AS and A2 course). In those type of subject, it's possible to get an A* but again, that's not only AS. It's A2 as well.

i love computer too. its just that that we weren't well prepared.. all of my group.. and we found the pattern slightly different from what we had expected.. but im happy k i got A*s in both of my favorite subjects.. :D what subjects have you chosen for a levels? im dropping computer and math.. taking pure sciences and psychology..
well that is great ... (y)
well I'm opting Physics, Chemistry, Maths, AICT
and you should only drop maths according to your field ... check uni requirements for your degree ... then you should decide
I can't and have no intention to drop Maths coz it is necessary in Computer field.

Why aren't you taking Computing? If i were you I would take Computing as well.

My subjects for A Levels are: Physics, Chemistry, Computing, AICT, Maths, GP.


Guys please tell me. Will we ever find out the percentage?
For GCSE, you won't find it out.
