when im older i would like to be an astronmer for three reasons
I love learning about the planets
it would be a fun job
Its pay is out of the roof (25-30thousand a year - even more for nasa thets double that twice in fact)
but im worried, in my french lesson i got 0/10 for spellings i couldent understand will it go ahead and effect my chances of getting a job even though its not relatored to french in anyway... :s
Are you taking it for GCSE?
LOOOOL!
you got rubbish in ONE spelling test and you think it wil ruin your chances of your dream job? Its a spelling test. They aint gonna say like no you cant be an astonomer because you got 0/10. no soz. as if?
And to get paid that much, you have to work for it and earn it. Same with all jobs. Your not put at the top straight away.
£25-30 thousand isnt that much you know.
:s no im only 11 goin on 12 but it will leading to making job centres etc beliving im dumb wouldent it
i meen for english im super for science im O.K but for IT im the best in the class:s
no, wait till your in yr 11 then worry about getting 0/10. ;]
Well, if you want a job at NASA, and you've got a degree in physics and good qualifications, they're not going to say that you can't have the job because you did crap in french when you were 11.Quote:

How would one spelling test which is not important, just so the teacher can see how well your doing, change your life/job w.e? As if.
Its not even GCSEs or whatever so it wont do anything for your future.
Obvious your joking around now because no one is that stupid..... well....

Just don't take it when you have chance to drop it ;)
You are only 11, wait till you get to Year 10/11 (GCSE years) and then it is time to worry if you get 0/10 on tests and for all you know you may not even want to be an astronomer in a few years time.
it won't affect it at all. for one, it's in french. i doubt nasa would care if you could speak french and two, just worry about doing well in your gcse's & a levels etc, that's what they'll look at.Quote:

You will probably change your mind about jobs at least ten times before you're 16 anyway :P So I wouldn't worry too much; especially as you said you're 12/13 and so it's probably only your 1st/2nd year of learning a new language and so no one is going to expect your spelling to be great :)
But when you're in years 11, 12 and 13 if you can't spell in English properly then I'd start looking elsewhere for jobs ;)
I like aced my english GCSEs and I can't spell for the life of me ^^ But my coursework folder was like 2marks off an A* and then in the test i got ** so I got a A overall - I was very very happy ^^Quote:
