      I did my basic education outside the UK so the equivalent I did included all science subjects (with Maths and Physics my favourites), arts, religious studies, geography and history!

      I got good enough results to do the A-level equivalents wanted and then to go onto the degree programme I really wanted to do which is Communication Engineering 🙂

      I didn’t do GCSE’s. In Scotland we did O’Grades (Ordinary Grades) and Highers (Higher Grades). I got nine 1’s for my O’Grades (1 is same as A), and 5 B’s for my Highers. I did Geography, English, Maths, Chemistry and Physics.

      Errrm. I did those exams before GCSE’s I did GCE’s I got 9 the first time round and then another 1 when I did my A levels. they weren’t great grades. I did chemistry (1) , biology (1) physics (2), maths (3), english literature (2), english language (1), french (4), history (4) geography (4) and use of english (2). In those days anything over a 6 was a pass.
