Guest kiwi Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 A level physics is too hard. Interesting new report on A levels shows students opting out of A level physics and Maths. on the other hand 50 000 took A level psychology. Any of you youngsters want to shed light. In my day you took maths to O level as there was no choice - after that up to the individual. Comment on current trends? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissy Bee Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Physics isn't too hard, Media Studies/Business Studies/Psychology is too easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Too Hard!! FFS - its called education, hard work, memory................. just bugger off and do meeja studies and don't bother the intellectual elite please................. To be fair it can't be easy juggling 4 lectures a week when you have to struggle having no money and going out on the p*ss 5 nights out of 7!

stozo Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Doing my AS Levels at the minute. Doing Media Studies ( :oops:), Politics, English Literature and History. I'd say the reason for a lot of people not doing Maths and Physics is compared to other subjects they are a lot harder and not that many uni courses require them. So what's the piont of doing Maths when you could do the much easier Media and end up on the same course at Uni. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimburst Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 its not the difficulty of the work, its how much work there is in all honesty. To do all the homework they obviously expect someone in their teens to have absolutely no life... so i prioritise the work and dot he most important stff first for the scariest teachers the push over teachers dont often get the unimportant work...:?

Guest Morph Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 i fucked off with school and went to college to do a btec national diploma in sport up at Buxton. Chilly place tbh. Plus it sounded a hell of a lot easier to do than 6th form from what i heard from my mates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimburst Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 i did; biology, chemistry, english literature, geography and psychology... ended up getting about 5 essays a week and not getting any done to a satisfactory standard, so i dropped psychology and switched from history to geography and it has god a bit easier since then.
