My daughter is half way through her A's and whatever you think about the levels etc, I have to say she has worked bloody hard, the course work I have seen has been challenging and not the piece of cake you are all making it out to be. Her results were a not too pleasing 2 Ds (that's not too pleasing to her, not me, she is bemused at getting A in one paper and an unclassified in another, making an average D grade! she has been told to request an explaination!) Her third subject is iMedia, a modular course, she has to wait until September for the actual results, which are a recognised industrial qualification rather than an A level. I know there are seveal techno heads here on the 'cat but I would challenge most of you to get your head round what she has studied so far in i Media, piece of cake? More like humble pie I'd reckon.
Like has been said they can only sit what they are set, by all means denigrate the politicians who make the rules, but please not those striving to achieve of their best!
