Guess who got her results! I did three exams in January which made up 50% of my final AS Grade for Economics & Politics, and 33.3% for Maths (the rest completed in May/June ‘09).
Results were as follows:
AQA Economics: Markets and Market Failure (88/100) (A)
OCR Politics: Contemporary Politics of the UK (85/100) (A)
Edexcel Mathematics: Core 1 (80/100) (A)
THREE As!!! ZOMG. The A boundaries were 80/100 for all three so I was sat quite comfortably in Economics and Politics…and not so comfortably in Maths. To be fair I was expecting a B because I got half way through several questions and then gave up (hooray for method marks!) I’m going to retake Maths in June to hopefully get more of a solid A so it won’t matter when I (envitably) mess up the much harder Core 2 and Statistics 1 modules in May/June! Economics and Politics results were such a relief though, retaking would’ve meant I’d have to learn four months of teaching again, on top of the four months of teaching for the second modules!
So London School of Economics is getting slightly closer. I’ve still go to somehow get at least a B in Critical Thinking (the most dire subject know to man) and hopefully get an A in English Literature, both through the art of blagging. Anyway, posts on this site are slightly few and far between at the moment due to the amount of studying I need to do. Things will pick up when I get more a social life, trust me. More social outings, two trips to London and a visit to Thomas Hardy’s house in Dorset in the coming weeks!
