Applied Science.
Did anyone have to take Applied Science in GCSE? Its like a double award and so flippin annoying. So much Coursework!!!!
I was gonna say if anyone did do it, what was your grade like? and if u did bad init does it affect you when applying for job/interviews whatever?
Is it also called AVCE? Im not too sure but if it is that I know my teacher said id be better doing AVCE Science in year 10..

man i did triple science in GCSEhated every fukking lesson for 2 yrs
TBH GCSE's dont mean sh1t, as long as ur gcse grades are good enough to get into 6th form/college and do A levels, you'll be ok
once you have a uni degree jobs wont really care about ur GCSE grades

oo you in year 11?
You get ur results today?
i think your talking about teh normal science GCSE.. not sure if the have named it something else now.. but wasnt it always a double award?
when i did my science i got d,d but did retkaes in biology, chemistry and passed tehm and then done my a-level in a BTEC National Diploma in sports and exercise science..
when you go to find a job after uni you wont even think about your GCSE grades at all.. they will look at your experience in the field your applying for and what your uni qualifications are... experience helps a lot too...
what you wana do after a-levels in uni.. or are you thinking not to go uni, but go straight into work?
OMG De Ja Vu, No! it's INCEPTION!!!
Simple rule.. TS asks you.. You don't ask TS..
Yea I did double award Science, got a CC.
Who said GCSE's don't matter? Of course they do! They're the most important exams you will ever take in your life!

Since taking GCSE's the only people that cared about the grades was when I was entering sixth form. When applying for Uni they didnt even ask about GCSE grades, only A levels, and when applying for a job last yr they didnt even care about gcse's either
Got a CC.. did foundation though so it was alright i guess.
^^Thanks to the Evil_G^^
i got BB on higher paper
man i dont no how i did it considering i hated science and slept through most of it...
they've changed the system thou.. my year was the last year to do it like that .. with also 2 investigations
now u do sum next level assignments or summin dunno
^ My year did the new system.
Still get two g.c.s.e's.
One you do in year 10, one in year 11. One in year 10 is 6 multiple choice exams throughout the year, and practical exams.
Then the one in year 11 is three written exams with practical exams.
Then you can opt to do seperate science. Which is when you do like a billion more exams but get 4 science g.c.s.e's
=\.

In most job specs, you will find they want so many GCSE grades C or above. Why do you think you write it on your C.V.? Why do you think school is compulsory until that level?what???

Uni don't ask for it because they have entry requirements obviously, otherwise they will let just anyone do a degree like people who don't have A-Levels :s
