The english test was stupid, i had trouble writing the short story, many of the multiple choice answers had 2 answers that were pretty close i had to guess about 7 multiple choice questions after elimating them to 2 answers. Science was pretty easy. Did anyone get kicked out of your centre?

Sc Exam

I also found that in the english exam there were 2 answers always in the multiple choice. I really hated the writing section. Science was alright but i think we needed more time. I was goin alright but towards the end their was like 11 mins to go and i havent even started the last section. I was so dissapointed i needed so much more time i rushed everything. The one worders were easy.

...Yeah it wasn't too diffcult. Some English multiple choice questions had 2 answers which were kinda confusing but overall I think i did good.

Good Luck for the rest of your exams!

The freaky guy in the short story turned out to be my maths tutor for the School Certificate. Great imagination I've got here ay?

People weren't kidding when they said there's no need to study. :)

I was kicking myself just before the English exam because I didn't study at all besides some online multiple choice but it turned out to be stuff I already knew.

My Thoughts on the English exam
• The multiple choice for english always seems to be stupid.

• I laughed when I got to the 1 page question about young drivers because that
was exactly what I did for an assignment and I remember every single word.

•My short story should be made into a TV drama.

My thoughts on the science exam

By far, the easiest test I've ever done in science. I was really worried because I only got 66% in my trials but I'm quite confident that I'll at least get a band 5 for the exam I did today. So easy that I had about half an hour left after I finished.

I watched someone try to figure out how to use the answer sheet. :D She was writing in the booklet then about 2/3 through, she realised there was an answer sheet.

Two down, two to go. I'm really worried about History, it's my worst subject, I hate learning all the dates. I better go and read up on Women's Liberation now.

The supervisors didnt even let us take the question booklet home with us either, its probably because people have accidently taken the answer sheets with them in the past.

It's not that different from an essay, you just need to tweak it a little.

When I saw the question, I couldn't hepl but shout, "Boo yeh!". Well I didn't really shout, otherwise I'd be kicked out.

I don't know why the teachers were so serious about the School Certificate. I think it's fun. :D

Yeah, I found the English to be quite easy too. There were only 2 questions in the multiple choice that I had trouble with and the short answers were quite simple as well.

Science isn't my best subject and I did quite badly in my trials (64 %) but am confident about this exam, the written components were pretty easy.

Looking forward to tomorrows exams Maths and History are my best subjects and Geography shouldn't be too bad.

I found it quite easy, especially the english, the only problem I have is the lack of space they gave us for the extended responses. We were told we had to fit into the allocated space.

The science test I think I would of benifitted from studying abit more. No matter what people say on this site. You couldnt of got some of those marks if you did not know what they were talking about. The 10 short answers after the multiple choice were easy I think I got 10 there. Overall I didnt think I did too badly in science but abit annoyed because I feel couldve done better.
