Maths, Further Maths, Physics, German.
If I'm honest, I had some pretty bad results in my AS. I've got one more year to sort it out. Physics was good - okay with that, but maths let me down. I can do all the maths. Ask me to find the limits, work with different types of space, do crazy stuff with limits, etc and I'll do it in a flash. But for some reason I clog up in the real thing. I was getting A's and A*'s in all my mocks (in test conditions), but then just doesn't work out in the real thing.
It seems like a way to blame someone other than myself, but I genuinely feel that the goal posts have been moved. Besides, physics and maths exams seem to twist questions in such a way that I should take English to understand them. I never wanted to take English, just tell me clearly what you want, and I'll find it for you.
Nevermind though, eh?
Also see if you can get the papers back (it will cost you but it is worth it) and then you actually see where you lost marks. Go through and decide for each lost mark whether it was lack of knowledge (then learn it), lack of understanding (go back to the book or teachers for help) or carelessness which is most common ( :brickwall: then read the question and answer the question and to check answers properly). Most important exam skill is RTBQ, ATBQ...
