Scott v Matt and Mollie

[craigh]

afternoon sory im late had to enroll at another college

[Jono]

What I find worrying is how hard they found the exam.

I know I'm not the best judge because maths is my subject but I don't get how some of them did so badly... Like 1%... no way..

Oh yeah just because you're a maths boffin!

It's not like they did the foundation paper. They did the higher paper which is instantly a fail for anything under a B/C.

If they'd done the foundation paper it would have been a heck of a lot easier. But without any revision I'd have no clue how to measure the side of triangles, quadratic equations and finding the circumference of a circle.

We're also just going by the one paper. You will have done coursework and another paper

Well I did say that I wasn't the best judge!

I thought some of them did the intermediate paper.

I now actually fear the day I forget all of my maths..

[Nik B.]

too true, Anything under a C on higher is an instant fail.

sad really.

[Kelly]

Hmm, isn't it worrying the smartest person at Radio 1 right now is Carrie off of the sport? A blonde who fancies football players? Hmmm.

It's Carrie. She can do anything. She should be the new Carol Vorderman.

Urgh, confused with Kelly. I'm offended.

:bah:

[craigh]

the circumference of a circle.

2 X pi X R?

[Kelly]

too true, Anything under a C on higher is an instant fail.

sad really.

...like, you get a U? Oh God, I was on Higher for my maths. This explains a lot.

[Jono]

2 X pi X R?

You asking me or telling me?

Maybe they should have done the foundation paper. It kind of makes people who did that paper sound like they were worthless because the DJs didn't do well in a higher paper.

Although if they managed a C in the foundation paper I guess they can sit smugly

[Sam]

scott if your reading this don't do anything entertaining for about 20 minutes because I have to go cut the grass.

Thanks

[Nik B.]

yep a U I think

hehe glad I did foundation when I took mine

[Jono]

Yes, that's why you have the choice to which paper you get entered into, or the teacher does. I did the intermediate paper where it's much easier to get a B than in the Higher paper. There's also a foundation paper where it's easier to get a C.

It's unfair if you are perhaps a C grade candidate as you get stuck with hard questions on a higher paper. So they put you on the foundation paper where there are more C grade questions.

[Kelly]

I never got the choice, it was just a given that we were all doing higher tier because we were in the top class. I am going to kill my old maths teacher. I know the basics, and can do a fair bit of algebra, so I would've been so much better on the foundation exam.

Ooh, plastic surgery talk! It's like Desperate Housewives!

[Grace]

finding the circumference of a circle

"Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee, around the circle is Pi x D. if the area is to be declared please remember Pi R squared."

Ahem, we had to learn that in year nine.

Don't say that about braces, I want mine off as soon as possible! I'm known as "brace face Grace" to pretty much everyone.

Scott, that sounds so attractive.

[Jono]

I've had temporary teeth and they came out in an apple. It's not nice. Root canal involves having your teeth being filed down too. It's not nice.

Actually I am squirming at the thought. I think it's a worse thought that having your wanger cut off.

Yes well you've just had your exams. Whereas I was in Year 9 six years ago. Five years since my GCSE exams too. You'll soon forget it

[KingTutsWWH]

I think it was unfair that they had to do a maths paper. They should've been allowed to choose their subject.

I lost half a false front tooth in an apple once. Nasty.

Edit: snap Jono

[Danishgirl]

Afternoon!

I found the time to come and chat to you, woo

[Jono]

I knocked my front two teeth out when I fell off my bike. Temporary teeth for a bit and then they built them up. Although I'm told one day they might go weird and they'll have to be taken out again

Welcome along Sigrid!

Haha, guys, if you had to pick, and you could only keep one (the other one being filed off with no anaesthetic), would you keep the teeth or the wanger?

It's a close call for me :|

I still remember that!

And about a million others.

I knocked my front two teeth out when I fell off my bike.

There really is no incentive for me to learn how to ride a bike.

[Kelly]

Enough with the teeth talk, please.

I am actually squirming here.

[Nik B.]

oh what a horrible story...

Lovin scott and chappers reaction though

[Jono]

He's just a living reminder of me! I was going down a hill, couldn't work out how to do my bike breaks, pulled the front breaks, and went over the handle bars and slid along the tarmac.

I'm going for tea... it's bad memories!

[Grace]

I knocked my front two teeth out when I fell off my bike.

I walked into a massive metal beam supporting a crane and smacked part of one of my front teeth out. God bless private dentists, you can't tell.

[Nik B.]

god I'm so lucky...

I've only come over the handlebars of a bike once, but hit a prickly bush at high speed my teeth were fine though
