as the title says...
havent had one hard exam yet and only have 2 left :)
those left are triple science and statistic with the only reasonably hard topic being in science and protein synthesis.

They havent been as hard as I thought. the maths was alot easier than my mock (But I was in higher for my mock and intermediate for real) and French reading was hard...because I can barely read French, but I never realised how much revision can help me.

so true. GCSE's were relatively easy but a levels are hard. i got an A in my maths GCSE and then went and got an E in my Core 1 exam that i did in january, that paper alone was harder than every GCSE put together

Wait till you finish education altogether, THEN you'll be learning some pretty tough lessons ;) I did 16 GCSEs and didn't spend a minute revising - I'm not boasting there was just no point I played tennis all day and had fun, this year for A2 I've been revising quite a bit but the exams are ok once you know your stuff especially maths, unless you're 100% confident it seems v v hard. I have to say
Geography has been really difficult in terms of getting so many arguments down on paper in so little time AND remember a pleuthora of facts and figures...and I thought it was a tight squeeze at GCSE its 3x as much now :o ah well we cope :)

In my school we joked that GNVQ stood for 'generally not very qualified'. I have to say, I didn't find A-Levels much harder than GCSE, but maybe it's what I chose. You have to be more specific, but they're still far too formulaic. What you really want to do are the AEA levels (kind of a mix of the old S levels and the old A levels). These assess ability much better.
