Exams - Dark Samurai - 22-01-2018

People have always done exams a bit early, but I've never heard of it this early before. Normally you do a few the year before you take the rest at 16.
I think it's awesome that you're good enough to do it at 13, but in many ways I can't see the point. What do you do next? A levels at 15? And then what? Seems like a bizarre plan overall.........
Really hope they went well though, would definitely be quite an achievement at your age

Marsdendean Are these some dodgey exam so to speak. Jambo's friend took a level 2 years early, and i just don't see (no offensive Oli) how you can have the same qualification as someone who has spent 4 years more learning it.
These are just the same exams that you would take at 16.
Its just because Oli can learn much quicker than other kids.
He will probably have a degree by the time he is 16.
It is alot different from some one doing a 3 month course in plumbing and calling them-self a plumber who have no idea about it.

Or a couple of weeks welding training and calling yourself a welder..............
Really any professional job needs months of training/ practice. Exams are only to see what your level of understanding is.

Yes exactly mate.
And they only show what you have learnt. So its not like a job really.

Feels like it though when you are doing the exams - rather you than me mate.
If you get 75% thats enough for an "A" pass apparently, still means that 25% of things you think you know is wrong.......................
Exams - Dark Samurai - 23-01-2018
Yeah i know mate.
But yeah if you don't know the other 25%, and you get an A, most people would be over the moon lol
