Quote from Monster: “Letter grades and percentages are not standardized, therefore they are not a comparable measure of success at the national level, or even at a local level. In other words, an "A" at my school is completely different from an "A" at a different school. This is why standardized tests were created - to standardize academic proficiency. Granted, I have a 2340 SAT. 99.99th Percentile, bitches. :cool:” Ah I see, in the UK our grades are standardised across the country so someone ga…

The Total War series has occupied my life for the best part of 5 years

My AS exams start next week. I've already taken my French oral but I have these exams to do: French (Reading writing and listening) English Literature Biology History: France in Revolution History: Life in Nazi Germany 1933-45

I never understood the whole point of averaging out grades, we don't do it in England. We look at the grade for each subject seperately and that's it.

It really depends. You have to take into account many different factors when choosing a university. For example I could get the grades in my A Levels to go to Cambridge (A*AAa) but they don't offer joint honours so I wouldn't be able to take History and French, I would have to take History and try and keep my French up outside of my studies - which at Cambridge wouldn't leave much time for the language. I also don't think Cambridge is the experience I want, I really want to go to a big city such…

Has nobody said the Moomins yet? :eek:

Haha, now that's saying something!

Not my type of thing I'm afraid.

People that get over 100wpm must have to replace their keyboars pretty often :p

I've got her album and I've really gotten into it.

When I took one of the tests I got 74 wpm.

Infinity 2008 by Guru Josh Project - so I have it on repeat atm. It really makes me want to have a night out.

The Very Best Of Euphoric Dance Breakdown 2009

I don't mind her but I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to her. If her song comes on the music channel in the common room I'll put up with it but I don't think its that good. I won't be going out to buy her album.

Read my copy of Attitude magazine (gay magazine in UK)

They're basically the same thing, only a 6th form is usually part of a school whereas a college is standalone. Therefore, if you go to college the majority of people will be your age, but some people may be a bit older. After the age of 19 you have to pay for college education I think. A lot of the time people enter college after a year of 6th form because it might not have been right for them. Also, colleges are usually the best place to go if you want to do a vocational course because they hav…

I love the Total War series but I fear that I won't be able to get ETW as I don't think my computer will run it

I know, I love her naivity! It's quite a refreshing difference from the rest of them

I love Pandora, I felt so sorry for her at the end of the last episode. I hate cook now.

I enjoyed the episode although I didn't like it as much as I liked the previous series. I think it has great potential though and in future episodes could surely rival the other series.
