This. I mean, with AS Levels, I stopped playing any game except Pokemon for weeks. With A Levels, it's just no games, full stop. I'll get back to you when I know the pain of A Levels (even though we've started already).

I've been playing various games throughout this exam season and I've had a bucket-ton of exams, and still managed to fit in the revis' required... I've been playing SSFIV regularly, completed AC2, RDR and Star Wars: TFU, as well as partaking in some LotRO, some DDO, lots of Tropico... Hell, if anything I've been playing way more games during study leave than I was before my exams

What subjects are you doing Alex? I was having to revise for 10 exams over a month. 4 Maths, 2 Physics, 2 Chemistry (AS) and 2 General Studies, and I've already completed my Computing A2.

SS, I have no idea what exams you were doing, but they damned well need to make them harder in future.

Alex would take on every subject and someone elses for lols and still pass them early and on time with the highest possible grade..

You massively underestimate A Level education. I'll have to send you some A2 Maths, Physics, Computing and Chemistry at some point.

Hey if you want to send me a few things go for it! I won't understand it but i'm a fast learner

Oh I'm doing Maths Physics and Economics, it's not easy, but I find I can revise a few hours a day for my upcoming exam and it seems to go alright (though I'll find out in august).

Only got one more to go though, Physics tomorrow afternoon.

Media, Film, Performance, Psychology. I've gotten mixed opinions on it. Some of my friends say I'm going to fail in life because I didn't take a Maths or Science subject, but others love my lesson choices. I had to revise nowhere near as much as you, but there were some difficult moments for me, such as having to learn sheet music off by heart.

I know you think I'm smart, but that's over the top

Yah, A Level is damn hard. Especially those four.

Owen's right, you do underestimate it XD

Exams are over! Huzzah! Unfortunately some of my friends still have one exam left (in some irrelevant subject like Psychology or something) so we're waiting a whole 'nother 24 hours to go down to the (real) pub.

The people doing that psychology exam have to memorise about 80 case studies, I'd like to see you ace an "irrelevant" Psych exam.

we always take the piss out of (our friends who take) Psychology and art by saying those subjects are irrelevant. They often get riled up.. hehe. It's just casual banter though, amidst the ongoing argument about which would win in a fight between 2 different species of crab.

I can understand the fun that can be made of art, given my natural disgust of art in almost all forms. For "works of art" to be sold for millions upon millions when they look dreadful and even I know fullwell that I could do something better gets me thoroughly riled. The medium of art disgusts me.

Have talk of exams ended yet?

I thought I managed to escape them for taking Visual Communication in college (which I have, I won't have to take a single exam until university! It's all gradual assessment), then everyone around me starts talking about them again...

Bah!

Jeeezus, how long have I been away? Darren's nearly caught up to me =/

How is everyone btw

I wasn't trying to catch up to you Smudge, just enjoying posting You been busy? I've had an exam, I failed it on Friday but today I passed it with a high mark so i'm really happy. Had a successful job interview last week too, I have my fingers crossed for a reply!

On the topic of posts, considering my... Long break, I'm still one of the highest posters...

I've been busy with work yeah, long days, 9am til 8pm, not including travel.

Gonna try and post more, but it's not going to be a great deal.

Well i'm pleased you have a good job. That's very important!

Yay Smudge is back

I'm fine, I finished exams and college is nearly over. Don't know if I'm happy or sad about that.

Make the most of the time you have left

That's like...two whole days. XD I've enjoyed it up to now at least.

It would seem I'm going to be dethroned in the next couple of days by Darren.

I'd love to give him a good run for his money, but I have the time nor the effort nowadays, pity.

The place had a huge surge after E3, now it's dead again... Shame, I'll try to start some discussion later today when I get the time. As for MotM? We'll chose one for June soon probably, we may stop doing it however due to the lack of people posting
