The quotes of Lao Ma:
-Fill yourself with desire and see only illusion. Empty yourself of desire and understand the great mystery of things.
-To conquer others is to have power. To conquer yourself is to know the way.
-The entire world is driven by a will, blind and ruthless. In order...
Hi all, I am a member of a aviculture website and some of the members are currently involved in an egg exchange programme. One member sent eggs from Ireland to the USA, but on arrival the eggs had bubbles in them and seemed to be damaged inside. Some have come up solutions such as putting the...
Thanks for the info, guys, it is much appreciated.
Oh well, that's that out of the window if it involves maths. :frown: Still deciding on what to take - I'm finding it hard. The only subject I'm definite about is geography. Better get these GCSEs out of the way first before worrying.
I'm looking for information on General Studies at A-Level or references to sites with information (can't seem to find much).
What does it involve? Does it include any (or much) maths? If so, at what level?
Is it a well-respected qualification?
Well, the physical geography book arrived today and I'm looking forward to reading through it; so far it looks good. However, it was published in 1976. Have there been any major breakthroughs in physical geography since then, or can I trust that the information in the book will be accurate...
I don't get much in my garden in terms of wild birds, but I do keep and breed birds. At the moment I've got 2 greenfinch hens on chicks, and another greenfinch hen that has reared chicks that are just over 1 month old now and eating by themselves. It'll soon be time to remove them and give her a...
RELAXING! Once I'm finished my GCSE exams, I'll be enjoying my few weeks before I begin A-Levels. Unless I'm assigned to do otherwise, that is. I'll also be doing my usual reading of geography and science books, but I enjoy that.
I suppose there's no point in trying to kid myself - I'm no good at maths. So it's probably best to try to avoid it, even if there's just a small amount involved. So I'll go for the biology course... that's no problem to me as I enjoy all 3 science subjects equally, so it's not as if I'm going...
I'll take your advice and give the 21st Century thing a miss then, and take either chemistry or biology. Is either of them more favourable to employers or universities for whatever reason?
For that matter, are there certain A-Levels that are generally more favourable than others? I'm...
