    Ah the delivery questions, always great :D I can't do accountancy...my brain just doesn't register it, I start perspiring, my breath starts coming in short, quick gasps, tears erupt from my eyelids, my face turns a light shade of magenta and I pass out*

    Aww I think it was worth 12 marks, you attempted some-sort of graph so maybe 2 or 3 marks for attempt? Don't worry about it "Live and let Live"

    If you thought drawing a pie chart was bad, I had forgotten my pencil case at home!!!
    And just realised it around 10 mins before the exam, luckily got a blue and black pen from my mate but then came the bar chart question in which I had to do it free hand !!!-1st world problems

    I balanced the Trading,P+L Appropriation a/c and balance sheet which was weird because I never get it. Paper 1 was fairly easy I thought.

    Loved the business exam, hope to get my A in it :)

    Sometimes geography is worded terribly, ''Draw a sketch map of this photograph''
    >Sketch map of a photo
    >Sketch map, photo

    They should really just say sketch photo
