I got a telling off from the head of 6th this morning because my target grades from my teachers are lower than my ALPS grades. ALPS are basically target grades that are based on statstics and GCSE results. I have five GCSEs at As and Bs so according to this formula I should get 3 Bs at A level. Which is completely pointless and rubbish, there is no way I am going to get that. I didn't turn up to half of my lessons last year and she knows that.
I don't really care what grades I get as long as I get into uni without going through clearing.
Started physics coursework this morning. We all thought it was a doddle until we came to set it up. Its about inverse square law so we have to record the intensity of a filament bulb with a light sensor. Sounds easy until you realise how many problems there are to overcome. Such as how to read the LCD screen and write down results in the dark
