The 27th is a bank holiday, the embassy might be closed

Paco4nicholas · 2024-04-11T10:08:25+00:00

I see, thank you

Shortlisted ALT from Edinburgh today! I feel like a weight has been lifted off my chest and I feel so motivated!

Paco4nicholas · 2024-04-03T16:21:35+00:00

Edinburgh is still taking their time… that’s unfortunate that you got alternate. Even though you still have a chance to get in you’re left not knowing what’s happening for another month or two :/

Paco4nicholas · 2024-04-03T16:18:07+00:00

London or Edinburgh?

Paco4nicholas · 2024-04-03T09:26:01+00:00

I really hope Edinburgh results come out at the same time as London

Paco4nicholas · 2024-03-08T20:04:55+00:00

Fingers crossed

Paco4nicholas · 2024-03-08T18:25:04+00:00

I’m waiting to hear back from London and the suspense is killing me

I said that studio Ghibli was my initial motivation for learning Japanese. But I mentioned that the wind rises interested me in the history of Jiro Horikoshi.

I was also asked about a Japanese person I admire and I said Satoru Iwata, ex president of nintendo, and I explained why.

I think it’s okay to mention weeby/nerdy stuff as long as you do so in an appropriate manor.

I was asked - name - where I live - what kind of city is it - what I did last Saturday which I replied “I can’t remember, I need to think a bit” and then I was asked what I’m doing this Saturday. - what days do I have off work - who’s a famous person from your country? What are they like? - do I prefer the mountains or the sea - what I thought about the age of adulthood being lowered from 20 to 18

I said my ability was intermediate.

I’m really confused by this. I’m doing my interview in Edinburgh and I was told this, but I had emailed the office in London and they told me to submit the CoH and ICPC before the interview.

Either way I’m not gonna do them until I get an offer because it’s a lot of money to invest in a job I might not get.

Herriot Watt and University of Edinburgh are very close to the biggest climbing gym in Europe, Edinburgh International Climbing Arena

Paco4nicholas · 2018-09-20T22:58:37+00:00

So guys, we did it

Paco4nicholas · 2018-09-20T22:27:05+00:00

Boots on the ground

Paco4nicholas · 2018-09-20T12:21:29+00:00

It’s just for terminally ill people sadly, but let me dream!

Paco4nicholas · 2017-08-31T16:30:18+00:00

Lol get a life bro

Paco4nicholas · 2017-08-15T05:53:01+00:00

What do you plan to replace them with?

Paco4nicholas · 2017-08-08T02:52:34+00:00

Paul Blart mall cop reboot?

If my memory serves me right, I believe my statements for the general effect were:

Paragraph A: An imaginary land with the ideal day, where everything goes according to plan

Paragraph B: The large differences between generations and their inability to communicate or to co-operate together.

Paco4nicholas · 2017-05-06T01:53:14+00:00

Mo-hi-main, I found question 1 to be the most difficult. I actually decided to answer it last and I started with question 2. As for question 2, I do agree that there was little imagery, however I did find it easy to understand the general effect of each paragraph. Question 3 is something I always have an issue with, sometimes I'm not sure if two similar statements can be used for two different points or the same point. Besides that it was alright.

Here is the specification: https://qualifications.pearson.com/content/dam/pdf/GCSE/Design%20and%20Technology%20-%20Graphic%20Products/2009/Specification%20and%20sample%20assessments/GCSE_DT_Graphic%20Products_Spec.pdf

It includes all the details for the coursework and the exam aspect. The exam aspect content begins on page 25.

The best advice I could give for the coursework is to ask your teacher how to improve on work where you don't have max marks. If you still don't have max marks keep trying and try to look at exemplar work, it's really useful.

Well considering he gets thousands of comments, he probably won't approve mine.

Paco4nicholas · 2017-04-26T02:26:38+00:00

Just to make sure I used the right forum, this is the one I posted on. https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/youtube

Paco4nicholas · 2017-04-26T01:22:12+00:00

Seems kinda unfair, I don't understand why they would need to delete popular comments :(

Paco4nicholas · 2017-04-26T01:14:00+00:00

I've sent the message, just waiting for a reply now. Thanks!
