If any of you do, do A-level Maths or Physics, how hard is it? What are your current predicted grades & what grades did you achieve in the subjects at GCSE level?
+repp, thanks :)
Edit: Sorry, the title is meant to be "anyone here do a-level maths or physics? [+repp]
Got A in maths in GCSE without really trying, predicted A in a level, im not struggling at all but im pretty good at maths. But its easy enough to learn really. Would recommend taking it.Quote:

I got an A in GCSE, with A* in coursework and the jump between is absolutely massive. If you can avoid it, please do. Ive been getting like Cs/Ds in every assessment so far, and the Cs were with revision :l
Well I was thinking on becoming a pilot and it would be better if I took Maths & Physics, so I can study it at university. It said that I need atleast a C in Physics/Maths. Its not really vital for me to go to uni, I could just take up a course instead, but when it comes to employment, the employer will obv employ the one who studied it at uni aswell.Quote:

A* in maths at GCSE, B in Physics.
I'm predicted all A's at the moment. Physics is one of the hardest things ever, and maths takes a while to get to grips with, but its all nice now.
I'm also hoping to become a pilot when I'm older. Going off to uni to do aeronautical engineering (hopefully!) :)
got an A in GCSE physics. A level physics is just hard; I got a B in GCSE maths (its a requirement at my school that you get B or above) and I was one of only 4 people who didn't do A level maths along with A level physics. its mostly all maths if im honest, and i struggled quite a lot but maths isn't my strong point anyway.
I heard physics, along with most sciences, is ridiculously hard at A level compared to GCSE.
I take maths at A level, after acheiving my A* at GCSE level, and it's going pretty well so far, currently predicted/targetting and A/A*, but they say cores 3 and 4 are 50% harder than 1 and 2, so in total, I'd be pretty happy with a B/A (:
Maths at my college quite a few people dropped out of it cause they found it quite hard.
Thanks everyone! I +repped all of you, apart from two because I have to wait until the 13th to +rep you again.
