hey *waves*

i'd thought i'd post something on here mainly just to have a rant, but hell feel free to join in!

Right, i got modular results back yesterday for my geogrpahy AS level, i was meant to get 2 A's (haha) yet, came out with a C and an E (i was shocked with the E, hell i cried at that E!) Anyway, all wouldn't have been so bad untill i got home and got a mouthfull from my parents....thing is, i couldn't have possibly done any more work that what i did, yet still i screwed them up. Today as well...i was told by my teachers that they were disappointed (shit, its not like i wasn't either!)

Right my point is does pressure from other people determine how you do? the school piled the pressure on...home did, and whenever i tried to talk about it, it was always...oooh you have nothing to worry about, you'll walk thought it....it is now evident that this is totally false, given that I have to resit them both.....11 weeks to AS exams...sarah isn't a happy bunny!

anyway yeah...elaberate is you so wish

Sorry if this sounds dumb...but what does an E stand for?
Also, I think that when people put pressure on you it just stresses you out, therefore you get performance anxiety and perform worse than you normally would on tests.

well....the grading system goes from A - U (theres no F for some reason) so like an E is just slightly above a U (unclassified) thus pretty crap. I got my school report today...pressure once again, my predicted grades are all A's *great*
