University of Edinburgh. I've got Glasgow as insurance with AAAB, but I don't think I'll be going to the UK

Oh I know it's not the grades I just want to do a different course now. I might email Edinburgh and see if they'll change me over to engineering but I don't know how likely it is that they'll be happy to do that.

Aw yeah ask them to see you might be able to transfer. Or even ask the ucas team I think if you're on twitter you can tweet them and they usually reply.0 -

Guys, you know what I look forward to? Its this thread after the exams
I mean, I know we'll get our lives back and whatnot, but sure coming up to the results
exciting stuff
Thats my optimism for today :rolleyes:
Oh god I'll be a ball of nerves coming up to the results! It's my mams birthday the day before, and they want to have a party... I won't be in the party mood!
Lads how would you answer this question? It's in relation to protein synthesis. What is a triplet? State the role of a triplet.
Like I know in my head what it is, it's just getting it onto paper!0 -

If you know what it is yourself and know how to explain it, just explain what it does in your own words. Usually there's room in the marking scheme for explained answers even if you don't hit the keywords, but you might have to use a particular word sometimes to get the marks e.g a triplet is a type of codon with three bases attached to it which attaches to the RNA in protein synthesis. I'd say that'd get pretty much full marks you could throw more stuff in if you felt like you needed itkarkar athlete wrote: »Sorry to hijack this thread but this sounds just like my mother too, always giving out about not helping but I am like I am studying and she is doing nothing, even though I am not in LC, finish first year college so I know how it feels!!! Grrrr Parents :mad:
Ugh I know man, total first world problems like but it's so irritating. :P I help as much as I can and I'm studying like 7-8 hours a day, when my mum flips her shít I just calmly tell her if she wants something done she can just ask me and she doesn't have to go burning out her vocal cords over it either. :pac: I'm a super clean person like, I hate living in a dirty house. I don't mind clutter, as long as the stuff causing the clutter is nice and clean. :P But ideally, no clutter, nice and clean = happiness haha. You still living with your mum?0 -
So in maths we were doing that algebra (a) part with the root x-9 over root x - 3 = root x + a for all x =/= 9.
When my teacher asked me how to do it I said let x = 0 since thats true, 0 isnt 9. He was like emmmm and everyone was like LAWL, NO, LAWL.
Then I explained it and my teacher was like oh yeah and everyone was like oh yeah of course
Fook sake :pac:0 -

That's definitely a valid way to do that question, it was in the marking scheme...that would've been way easier than the way I did it :L
The c part of question 2 was a bitch in 2006, for a minute I was terrified that I wouldn't get it :L
It'd be a gift of a question now though for a part c Took me a while to get the negative log bit even though it's in the tables :pac: 0 -

You really enjoy my wee bítching sessions on here don't ya? :P Same hey, I really need a scholarship tho I'd prob hang myself if I had to go to her and ask for money hahah. Applied for the Naughton so we'll see how that works out! How many weeks is it left outta curiousity? 0 -

Lolz, do I?! :P I didn't realise, I think I'm just in the mood for ranting. I wanted to try to get enough points for a scholarship at the start of the year, but now there isn't much chance of that. Plus I don't even know how many points I'd need to get one! :cool: Ah, about 14 now, if my calculations are correct. :P
Oh and good luck with the scholarship! 0 -

I only decided at Christmas I wanted to get a scholarship in fairness. :pac: Pure stress haha, but it would make such a difference! In fairness I've no idea what kinda points I need either, they take your situation into account in the application so I really milked it in the application form, money is very tight at home, cannibalism has been considered on multiple occasions, etc. Bolded bit made me lol :P I got this mental image of somebody agitatedly performing differential calculus sums to try and figure out how many days there were :L And he looked like this haha
