Mine were one year apart. So you still get except for the first year, exams/coursework every year for the two, it's just a perpetual grind
That's beside the fact they've had SAT's and are the most examined kids in Europe (if they're in school, we home schooled for a while), sorry just fed up with how kids are being treated with all these exams now
Sorry Hypno, this thread should be about 'happy sleep dreams' tonight, have a super night's sleep

Oh yes, so are we! Hopefully we can start getting some sort of "normality" again. We feel as though we have been in limbo a bit while we have been without them!
Hopefully by the end of the week, we will have got the mortgage through, and I can then do my "budgets for the future" and we can start getting on with things properly......Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

Slightly different system here I think se.
They sit prelims first.
If they fail and marks are very poor they dont get to sit higher in May.
Luckily as yet no like that.
Seems an auful waste of a year if they dont get to sit actual higher exam.
But of course everything is very results driven & fails are not good for their stats:eek:I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.
