Luke Rainbird Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 You could ask if you could do an additional full A level in one year - same sort of relative amount of work as doing 2 further AS courses but would be spreading yourself a little less thin. Worth a try if all else fails at the very least. Either way you need to book in a good discussion with someone in a position of relative power.

AndrewEH1 Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 ...or take a kamikaze approach and load up on additional subjects so they let you in, then just fail the ones that don't matter? Might not make you look good though... I have to say that the English education system is a little backward... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, already been through this route, although unfortunately I get the standard "the A2 course follows on from the AS, and as such you could not do it without the skills learnt from that first year" Yes, I am currently speaking to one local sixth form, who I may be able to convince. Pretty much on my last chance here! My current school won't see me, as as far as they are concerned, I am no longer a student. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but if you were to do the full course (AS & A2) in one year that point is irrelevant and you'd still be attending several subjects worth of lessons which seems to be their aim.

krazykid009 Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 I see what you mean, but what they are saying is that the A2 course follows on from the AS, so until you finish the AS, you won't have the skills to do the A2. They can't be run in parallel. Basically, just had a call back from one local sixth form, saying they are going to get one of the tutors to get in touch with me to discuss it further. I can be hopeful eh?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Pffft, they'll let dumbasses study only one subject, why wouldn't they let someone who's gonna get a decent mark do it too? It's better for their stats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadManMike Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Literally EVERYTHING on a Seat Leon is gay. Oh you want to do something simple? f**k you, driver, you'll pay a garage. Everything I've done to that car has been a pain in the arse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzo Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 I had one as a hire car, 13 plate. The wing mirrors are so far back that when you open the window you get a blast of wind in your face deflected from the mirrors. Enough to make me not buy one.

MadManMike Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 My problem is that I'm pretty crap at hands on tasks, but my mates are all good so I get frustrated quickly when I can't fix something. As it turns out, the problem I had was my own fault because I was doing it wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) A penis from Northern Ireland bought my alloy wheels. He turned down my offer of £80 for postage, but he agreed to giving me an extra tender for packaging materials and finding a courier himself... On the 11th, and then apparently forgot how to use the computer. Sucks to be him, the postage is likely to be a fortune, which is why he should read the f**king listing. At the end of the day, I can always open an unpaid item case and he'll get bad feedback for being such a dumbass. I might offer a courier in England next time, might get more money.

weirdoku Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Don't sell it to him, sell it to the next highest bidder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Well, yeah, but if I don't sell it to him, I can get a dispute, which I'm avoiding. On the other hand, I'm secretly relishing in the fact that he's trapped into forking out for a courier over the irish sea for the same reason. Sucker.

isitafox Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Just be careful, I sold a set of JDM Civic Type R wheels to a lad over there a few years ago and when he got them he changed his mind and was all set to return them. I told him no chance as they were exactly as described and had every little marked pictured on the auction but he put in a dispute anyhow and eBay refunded him about £100!
