GCSE EXAMS...

Man up theyre toss compared college etc! i didnt revise for any of my exam and still got decent marks

You always hear a certain generation going on about how o levels were a million times harder then the gcse exams, but they never mention how much easier driving tests were "back in there day"

tj... we received a better education. it is 'their day', not 'there day'

o levels were harder. senior education officials have admitted that each year, they were under pressure to make it look like exam results were better, so they made them easier... universities, and i don't mean those glorified technical colleges that put up new signs, i mean proper ones like oxford & cambridge have been complaining for years about the woeful standards in state education...

my eldest daughter has terrible writing because she always produces coursework on computer, and doesn't write out rough drafts like in the olden days, when spelling was considered to be important... her teachers demand it so they can check that it hasn't simply been cut & pasted.....so make them write it out longhand & produce the rough notes, just like my generation did.
