A young, talented person from Warrington has success and all people can do is slag off her mam for being proud of her?
You'd think with the headlines people of Jenny's age have made for this town in recent times, [i]everyone[/i] would be happy at such news?'"

Well said mate.

Quote: Live Wired "this thread has nothing to do with rl,so lock it.

But whilst we're on the subject of maths,was she allowed to use a calculator,log tables,sine tables etc ? most proberley.The education system has been dumbed down beyond belief.Dumbed down so much,that last years maths gcse pass rate,was set at 28%.Considering the old pass rate for O levels was 65%,anything lower was classed as a failure,you'll see my point.And as for chemistry,unless you want to be a terrorist,then its totally pointless,may aswell have taken sociology or done a degree in hair colouring.'"


They don't make them like they used to, in Live Wired's day they weren't allowed calculators and had to memorise log and sine tables before they went into the exam.

They proberley weren't even allowed to use spell checkers either.

On the issue of dumbing down, 1st class degrees are one of the remaining academic achievements which are still very hard to get, because you need to be consistent right through your degree. Most students who get straight As at A level end up with 2.1 degrees. A lot of bright students have the 2.1 mentality, they will do enough to make sure they get that because its the cut off for what most of the top employers will ask for, but they can't be bothered pushing themselves to get a 1st.

Generally if you have a group of 100 students on a university course, about 8-10 will get 1sts, about 50-55 will get 2.1s and about 30 will get 2.2s. The rest will be 3rds and a couple of fails.

Congratulations Jen, you've worked hard and deserved it! I'm sure you will not have too much of a problem finding a job.

Live Wired, if you actually looked at any degree level maths you will see how useless a calculator would be for the majority of the exams. Jenny has done very well to achieve a 1st class degree.

Those posters who think that a Chemistry and Maths degree is easy clearly have no idea what it is actually like. They are extremely difficult to complete in the first place, let alone to such a high standard. Getting a First in such tough subjects is an achievement most of us could only dream of.

Is this your idea of a joke?

If you are taking a swipe at someone who has worked extremely hard, then shame on you.

Did you read for a degree yourself? Somehow, I think not.

Thank you everyone for such nice comments. They've really made me smile. Hopefully I'll catch up with most of you at the games now I'm actually able to attend them again icon_biggrin.gif

As its only your 15th post I'll assume you haven't realised that not all off topic threads get locked, (In fact I have just counted 11 OT threads that have not been locked just this week) only certain ones and usually for good reason.

So again thanks to the majority of you for your comments and good wishes.

But to all you green eyed keyboard warriors... icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

I am now locking this thread as I don't want it to turn into a slanging thread.
