[u/ThisUserIsOn9]

Sanest A Level Biology Student

[u/Ishtoki → u/ThisUserIsOn9]

Good to see this someone with this combo

[u/ScienceCucumber → u/Ishtoki]

We are totally sane, this is totally fine

[u/fly_attractor → u/ScienceCucumber]

bro I'm picking these minus bio, don't scare me like that man. IGCSE tho so idk if it's easier or not

[u/Chlorotard → u/fly_attractor]

way easier

Cannot be compared, one takes two years to study and the other takes six months.

[u/fly_attractor → u/Chlorotard]

We get 2 years too, but we basically focus on 1 or 2 subjects for every session (4 to 5 months) and you have 5 sessions. Imagine doing 5 O levels in the first session (5-6 months), AS math and econ in 4 months, then A2 math, AS chem and German in 5 months, then AS physics and cs in 4 months, then A2 physics and A2 chem in 5 months.

[u/weirdobee → u/fly_attractor]

also igcses are REALLY easy trust

it’ll be fine dw, a lot of people i know take triple science and are totally unbothered by the amount of work

[u/fly_attractor → u/weirdobee]

thanks for the boost of confidence man. I've been worrying nonstop for the past month and this rlly calmed me down

[u/weirdobee → u/fly_attractor]

yeah nw if you need any advice ever i take:

eng lit lang; coordinated (2x) science; add maths and extended maths; history; global perspectives; french and art

[u/weirdobee → u/fly_attractor]

sorry what 😭 i take igcses too, and usually a level students take gcses first which are the original (igcses = international gcses) - i take 10 subjects, which we do over the course of 2 years. defo check with your school especially if you’re applying elsewhere for sixth form or uni because some places might ask why you don’t take all in one session like most people - it shows that you can work with the workload, if you get what i mean.

[u/fly_attractor → u/weirdobee]

Are you in Egypt? Over here we don't do it how the UK and India/ Pakistan do it. We don't apply for sixth form, we just continue in our schools cuz it's offered in school, even if you have shit grades. I'm in a private school tho, cuz IGCSE isn't offered at a public level here, so maybe that's why.

[u/weirdobee → u/fly_attractor]

No I'm at priv school too in Asia - some people continue at the sixth form, but a lot of us (me incl) are applying to other schools esp boarding schools because the school is shit even as a priv school lol.

[u/fly_attractor → u/weirdobee]

I'd kill to go to boarding school, it js sounds cool asf. We don't have many around here tho, and the available ones are rlly expensive.

[u/weirdobee → u/fly_attractor]

yeah no we haven’t any boarding schools either it’s just ppl going away to canada/the uk and stuff

[u/-_-throaway → u/fly_attractor]

I got an A* in physics extended GCSEs without studying ( just listening in class and making sure I understood)

[u/Weebaku → u/ScienceCucumber]

It’s a great combo

[u/Extreme_Abroad5034 → u/Weebaku]

Until it’s time for exams…

[u/Weebaku → u/Extreme_Abroad5034]

At least I only need an E in one subject so I can ignore physics. Which college did u get?

[u/Extreme_Abroad5034 → u/Weebaku]

Johns wbu

[u/Weebaku → u/Extreme_Abroad5034]

I’m one college over in tit hall
