GCSE Results

My brother got A* in German, as expected

Nice one. Are you actually properly german then? Do you have a german parent or parents? Did you used to live in Dachau?

I got an A in GCSE German... and I'm English  :?

I got an A in French. I used to wear stripey jumpers, berets and onions around my neck though.

The amount of coursework we were given was ridiculous.
But I only did it for the lessons I liked really.
I basically couldn't be assed.

I'm guessing you didn't bother with the English coursework either?

I did actually

I say fair play to you S4L.  You turned up for the exams, completed them and thats more than some people even bothered to do.

You still got grades to show for it no matter what they are.

Which means my best achievment today was winning killier pool

Not having a pop or anything, but are you in a wheelchair?

When I was at school, as long as you turned up with your shorts and could run, the minimum you got was a C.......

Thats harsh, many disabled people can do sports, fucking hate it when people have a go at the disabled.

I agree, unless they are disabled Jews.

For example, I got 390 out of 397 correct in my maths test but I only managed to get a D

 I make that 98% you sure your maths is right?

You need 70% for a C
Maths coursework is worth 30%
98% - 30% = 68%
There's my D

You don't understand percentages . If the exam was worth 70% and you got 98 % then you got 68.6 % of those 70% and presuming you got 0 % on the coursework then you got 68.6% overall.

You need 1.4/30 or just under 5% on the coursework to get the C, you could have probably handed any old shit in.

I admit that's pretty close to what you said. But let's use your logic with a different situation. Say it was 50% exam and 50% coursework. By your maths if you'd got 40% on the exam and nothing on the coursework.
40% - 50% = -10%. In reality you would have got 40% of 50% = 20%

I think that's right anyway. Maths genius Ben is a long time ago and any I did at uni was blanked out my lot's of alcohol.

I was going to say that, but my way was easier to understand.
