Yeah!
Single again, and redundant from the job that used to mean that me and you were the only people alive at 06.00 on Sunday mornings.

If that sounds negative - it is, but I'm not.

How many exams?

four.
maths on monday/wednesday, psychology on thursday, then chemistry the following thursday.

sorry to hear about the singleness and the redundancy. How long's that been going on then?

Don't be sorry - I'm not
Out of interest, what do you call these exams?

They'd be called "A" levels here - it's the intermediate grade between high school and University - am I right?

they're vce exams.
and yeah, they calculate the rankings of people against everybody else in the state so they can work out who gets into what uni. You have to do a minimum of five subjects to get in. I did 6 over two years, cos I haven't been well enough for a full workload.

Not quite the same as our system then
So if your results dictate which University you go to, are Universities ranked in order of ability?

I'm always curious about these things.
