Although I celebrated leaving school on Friday (simply because 90% of GCSE students do leave after their final Maths exam), I went back in for my final exam today - an additional Media Studies exam which is essentially a Business exam. Think it went well!

Now just two months to wait until results day.

A-levels are hard, there's no denying that. You have to remember though, you're reducing the number of subjects being studied from around 10 or so down to 4, with the option of dropping one either during Year 12 or on results day of Year 12.

There's a philosophical motto that I go by to help motivate myself to keep going: "Short term pain equals long term gain".

I hope you (and indeed everyone else taking exams at the minute) get the results you want. Out of curiosity Dan, or just tell me to mind my own business if you want, what are you thinking about studying at A-level?
