Strange? I don't know how you do it in America, but over here, once you get into year Ten and above, you get three double science lessons a week. If you're taking the Triple Award, instead of the Double (which means you get 3 GCSEs (qualifications) instead of 2) then one double lesson is for Physics, one for Chemistry and one for Biology.

Using it goes with things like Chemistry and Biology names....I hardly heard Science actually called just science....

Same sort of thing up here in Canada; from Grade Eleven onwards, you have to take at least two of the three sciences all the way to grade twelve level (grade ten level of all three is in a single course) to graduate; Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. I've dropped Chem, but my sister's going to try to take all three - she's overloaded!

I've dropped Chem, but my sister's going to try to take all three - she's overloaded! I know how she feels- I'm taking the triple and we're getting ridiculous amounts of homework. It's all just so hard! And since I'm also taking double maths as opposed to the usual single, I've got even more to deal with. I just can't be bothered anymore.

But I guess by the end of it, when I get the extra GCSEs it'll have been worth it.

Extra qualifications. The more work you do, the bigger your reward! ;D
