My sisters AS-Level maths book.

***The Doctor*** · 03-17-2005, 12:08 PM

My Sister is doing Mathematics at AS-level, and the college told her to buy this revision guide, because it was so useful. She was looking in it, and it has a whole page about cows.
The Summary says: The Stuff on this page isn't strictly on the syllabus. But I've included it anyway because I reckon it's really important stuff you ought to know.

The whole page is nothing to do with Maths at all.

(Important cow information: Milk comes from cows.)

You have to love Easter Eggs like that. Not that this was is particularly egglike seeing as how blantantly easy to find it is, but... it's just like the Microsoft Excel 97 flight simulator.

And what is AS-Level?

AS-level, Right in england. We have a slightly different schooling system.

You do exams went your 16 called GCSE's (these are basic exams after which you can:-
A) go out in the big bad world
B) to go College/Sixth Form)
At College/Sixth Form you have different exams, they are.
AS-level (which are half a A-Level. takes a year to do.)
A-Level (these take two years to do.)
NVQ (pass.)
GNVQ (Ditto).
then you can you to uni after, I think. I never went pass the GCSE stage. I know up to the AS/A-levels are right.

I'm actually doing a NVQ in Meat Retail.
