Equivalency Testing?

[sienna]

Thank you I'm 98% sure I've failed! If you don't mind me asking what company did you use?

A big well done for passing, I bet that's a load off your mind.

Shock...Horror...! I knew if I wanted to progress I would have to get equivalent of GCSE in English and Maths..but Biology as well ? I only know about the birds and the bees

 

Seriously though, how many hoops do we have to continue to jump through in order to prove ourselves worthy

Tell me about it! It's the science holding me back now, despite maths being my weaker subject. I've got another test booked for next week just incase I've failed the last one. I'm exhausted from full-time work and revision all the time.

 

Does anyone know of any good science revision books/sites that will help me? I used GCSE bitesize but not a thing came in the test. It's a higher level paper and unless I do some serious revision I'm not going to pass.

I went through equivalency testing: http://www.equivalencytesting.com/

For Biology I used a number of resources:

- http://www.s-cool.co.uk/gcse/biology.html

 

I even googled some websites for biology revision notes.

Also, ordered a few books from amazon:

- GCSE Biology in a week which includes a podcast you can download in mp3 format.

- The Letts GCSE Biology book is quite good too.

Perhaps I should have chosen the biology paper instead of the single science! I got maths results today, I passed. Just science left now. Thank you for the website.

I got maths results today, I passed.

Many congratulations, sienna! I hope you're celebrating!

Congratulations!!! :-) I don't think I would do too good with maths!

But I need to become confident with it all-as I am applying for QTS

[sienna]

No HappyMaz not celebrating, revising! Got a science exam next week. AGAIN!!

 

sunshine9682, maths was actually my weaker subject not science...I'm sure you'll be fine. I found Conquer Maths useful and I think that might be how I passed!

 

Good luck with the Maths

Thanks, I will check out conquer maths. I am going to do the Learn Direct level 2 course to get my confidence with maths back up then I will do ET again after that.
