    ... What? Do you not understand...? An A in foundation is worthless. A D in Higher is at least worth something. And CSPE is common level. Why would you ask this during the exams?

    A in foundation = 0 points. nuff said


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 884 ✭✭✭ya-ba-da-ba-doo


    Because maybe their good at the subject? People respect people who do well in things. Doing all foundation is hardly respectable unless of course the student is unable for a higher level. Grow up and let people pick what they want.

    Doing higher level subjects also allows you to post in a more coherent manner on internet message boards.
    Thats one of the benefits but it is the one which applies most to you at the moment.

    Dyslexia is just an excuse for people of lower intelligence. Like you.

    Why would they pick foundation when they are well-able for higher level? :confused:
    An A in foundation is no better than a D in higher, you make no sense :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭Mialuvzfun!


    alright lets not get nasty.. EVERONE. higher level gets you the most points an A in ordianry is the sme as a C in higher so if your good at a subject you mite as well do it in higher and its not to look smart its to take advantage of what your good at. do as much higgher as yiou can for the jc cos then u hav the option for the lc! x

    How the hell did no one see through this?
    He's a troll....

    Btw dyslexia is an excuse not a disease. An excuse for being too lazy to learn. Instead of having kids branded as thick and lazy now they're known as dyslexic. Anyone notice how there is nearly 3 in 10 people who claim to be dyslexic

    There's no point in offering advice, if you're going to do so in inconprehensible, gibberish language. Better luck next time

    Don't give out to a retard if YOU are also a retard. This is in the JC forum, dumbo!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32 Stranjak


    Cos getting a C in higher level is about as good/better than getting an A in Ordinary.
    Plus Higher looks better, it looks like you're trying your best, rather than taking the easy way out.
    Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against people doing ordinary or foundation levels, providing they are unable for higher, and aren't just doing it out of laziness


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32 Stranjak


    clearly doing all foundation level subjects.
    Actually, she's doing all higher thank you very much.
    Maybe you might want to look at yourself before being so quick to attempt, and promptly fail, to tear down others my friend.

    Woah, I was just joking when I said that... Are you a Nazi? Like to beat up children?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,138 ✭✭✭Tomebagel


    seriously halla basin you need to calm down..as do half the other idiots who posted in this thread complaining about somebody who obviously has trouble with some(most) subjects.

    theres no need for the comments calling him a 'retard' thats just not on.

    Nobody is going to take you seriously, or even think that you're doing higher level if you continue to use txtspk. It makes you look like a complete tool.

    Oh good God... Can you say pompous? I know I can.

    dont be so nasty some people have learning difficultys like really bad ones like autism and down syndrome! x

    You're fulla ****.

    And tomebagel, that's not immaturity, it's simple fact.

    And stranjak, it's NOT pompousity. It's simply recognising that some people are clearly and inherently better than others.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,881 ✭✭✭mle1324


    LOL,this question is so simple to answer.

    The reason why people pick to do the higher level is because it reflects on you in the future,like i'll give you an example: if i was a employing somebody to work for an airline to fly a plane (and as you know you need good maths to be a pilot so anyway) i interview two people but there is only one place and i ask person No.1 what did you get in your JC maths? and he says A in foundation level and i ask person No.2 and he tells me that he got a C in higher level,straight away i will give the job to person No.2 because he would be better as he did better in his tests even thought he go a C.

    And don't forget the divine work of racial and intellectual segregation!

    All, I'm saying is, when we die, there's gonna be a heaven for the smart people and the stupid people, and a heaven for the chinese. No-one goes to hell, they just don't go together. Okay?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41 Freeze952


    Oh, how fun this has been! Well I guess I'm off to study my theroms for tomorrows exam. I don't do ANYTHING foundation nor ordinary, funny how you all made an assumption.

    Oh golly gosh! It seems I have made a few spelling, punctuation and grammar mistakes, oh what a pity. Well none of you seemed to answer the other question "Why do you do Higher, Ordinary or Foundation?" but oh well.

    Good luck especially to you Denis And Hogan!
