    I'm taking three, but apparently three of the hardest, Maths Further Maths and German. Our days are from 9-3 and have 5 lessons a day :D Atleast 2 frees a day. (Its not as great as you think, its boring having 12 frees a week)

    Tomorrow is our last day without F1 :D:D:D:D:D::D

    It depends what school your in. My lessons are 1 1/2 hours long but 5 lessons, finishing at 5:30. I hardly get any lesson 4 or 5 though, and some days I finish at lunch. We also have a week A/week B rota, so we get loads of free lessons! Unfortunately I have to bus it home, which takes at least an hour, an hour of not getting up to date on F1! Oh and I have chosen 4 subjects!

    I did Chemistry, Maths, Further Maths and Biology. (Well, and General Studies). Further can be pretty hellish sometimes, which exam boards are you on for things? You never know, I may be some help!

    I did edexcel for maths and further, which thankfully had no coursework! Although the exams weren't the easiest. What are you thinking of doing at uni? I'm guessing at maths?

    Doubt I will go, I didnt get a C in English GCSE so it will be hard :( If I could it probably would be Maths

    ~12 hours til F1 starts this season, Ive decided I will stay up the night and sleep in my frees :D

    Dropping Maths with stats, because it is the hardest thing I have ever attempted, although I am making good ground on Bio Geog and Chem with A's and B's flying around.

    Why? Mine weren't a waste of time, they've got me to uni doing exactly what I want to be doing, and just being at uni is awesome! What would you recommend doing instead of them?

    Hmm, tempted to pull an all-nighter tonight, get through loads of work and have the F1 live text (and coffee) to keep me going!

    Yes!!! I have made this into an off topic thread :dance:
    OT: Who will get first in the 2 practices?
    My predictions: (in any order) Alonso, Webber

    Off topic again: Bando, you get me a job then i'll agree with you saying their useless.

    For those on the all-nighters. Theres a radar map here that might keep you entertained too, at least you'll know when the rain will be, and how long its likely to last. But I'm sure free practice will be gripping enough to not need it!

    If I wake up early for work and watch fp2 before work will any of you crazy kids be about on here for me to moan at when it appears my predictions look very far of the mark?
