Lmao, I'm not L!NK. I was known as Scott Diamond, ScottDiamond, ScottDiamond,, ScottDiamond., Scott-Diamond, SATIRE, ScottDiamond1, Scott Diamond1 and stuff like that.

Maths: Well done.
Biology: Well done.
ICT: ICT is a walk in the park...
Business + Economics: They don't even teach you the key fundamentals to a successful business, so you've wasted your time with that. Time you could have spent learning English.

you see now i know who you are lol, i recognise satire from somewhere and scottdiamond. As for ICT, yes but its hard to get the grades plus i may be dropping it for year 13. And as for B+E, its not just about setting up a business you know... unless you have taken the exact course (meaning them together) you dont know what its like. Its one of the hardest subjects at a level and i have to agree with it. The exam was much harder than i could have imagined (mainly because they asked us stuff which is completely irrelevant to what we have learned). The reason behind it being a hard a level is because its not like sciences and maths where it can only be a certain number of things. It is much more open ended and can ask you pretty much anything and everything.

Why would i take english when it is one of the least useful subjects. I do not want to become a journalist or an editor of a magazine so what would be the point. As i have said beore, i dont go around the internet trying to be perfectly grammatical in what i say. even you make mistakes =/.

If you have a good English grade, any employer will pick you over someone who doesn't, seriously. It's one of the most important grades to go on your CV.

lmao, played.

I disagree, so long as you have a good grade at GCSE (in which 2 A's will suffice for me since i was getting D's and C's in mocks) they will look at you as equals. Obviously it depends what job it is.

No no no, they always look at English!

[Excellent]

No no no, they always look at English!

Seconded, it's like if say someone has 7 gcse's, then someone else applies for the same job but has 9, they will pick the person with 9, always happens

hmmm still disagree lol

yeh but its not really the same and that isnt always true. It depends what GCSE's and any other stuff they have.

What i was saying was A-Level English is higher than GCSE English but i cant see it being an advantage in some jobs such as retail (maybe management or supervisor positions) but if you wanted to do journalism then yes, it is better.

Rofl, enjoyed that argument lucas

and yeah agreed, more gcses is better than less, obviously.

What about if one person had 7 A*'s and someone has 9 B's, what then? :S

University applications rarely look at GCSE grades, they focus more on the A Level grades. They can sometimes be referred to the GCSE grades if it is a deciding factor, for example a course requires a GCSE in a particular subject. As long as you have English at GCSE and a decent grade in it, you don't need English at A Level to get a job or university placement. If you did, it would be compulsory! I'd be enlightened as to how many of the people argueing like me are actually in the steps of applying for universities and courses, not that I will be applying as I'm going to a specialist flight training college.
