AMERICAN Reacts to The Most Relatable BRITISH TikTok's 

Amen 🙏

@british penguin Aye, I often heard that top sets were more strict like that. There’s no need for it. I don’t know when you went to school but I left in 2002, back then there was no way of cheating your way up 😂 Not in the school I went to anyway.

Oh Nicol, love your self deprecation. 🖖🫡

I was always in bottom set 🤣

@@MissNikNak1 I was in top set for everything except PE and sports games. My year 10 maths teacher (also had her for year 7) was super chill and as long as we got the work done, she didn't care if we chatted and messed about to a degree. She once told my friend if he was going to copy my answers for homework to not hand our books in together and to copy it properly (he got a question wrong that I got right 🤣). Once you were in the top set, you were allowed to have the textbooks that had the answers at the back because they figured that you knew how to do it all anyway. In 2003 there was no way to cheat that didn't require you to understand the work itself anyway, easier and less stressful just to do it the right way. Never revised, never even tried. I didn't struggle academically but socially? I was 1 step up from the kids who had 0 friends. I still struggle socially.

JT.... did you realise the "You did not paint that!" was David Tennant (Dr Who) & Michael Sheen? 😁

he came to see her and hang out

I just didn't know it was that kinda shit tbh!

Yep, Doncaster here as well. I can confirm its a damn zoo.

Funny how baked beans come from America but are now a typical British dish and barely known in America.

​@@ignatiuskhan beans are very popular here in South America, while I lived in Ecuador they were eaten almost every day, not so much in my home country though, but in summer we get "porotos granados" and eat enough to satisfy the craving for the rest of the year 😅.

@@laurainathunderstorm I meant "Baked Beans" as in "Heinz Baked Beans", not just beans ;)

Or said in another way, its The Purple Man from the Marvel show Jessica Jones, and Castor from TRON LEGACY. 😎

@@ebbhead20 Didn't know about those ones, but cool.

@Nicky L I missed them unfortunately.

I was somehow always in top set for everything, we had I think 5 levels for maths, so it was more nuanced between sets and there were always a couple of kids who'd bounce between top and 2nd set each term, poor bastards. And presumably between 2nd and 3rd etc. Our teacher in top set maths used to basically threaten us with the possibility of demotion to the terrible dreaded 'set 2' if we didn't hand in our homework or whatever!

I'm even a member on here.....👀🤔😔💜

@@BP-kx2ig trying to say British mothers say “I’ve done 5 loads of washing” as if they hand cleaned it themselves when in reality the machine has done 5 loads of washing while the mother either got on w other shit or sat on her ass

@@BP-kx2ig basically British mothers make out as if it’s a gruelling task when in reality it’s just putting some clothes in a big hole and watching it spin

​@@ieuanmarsh3666they still have to fold it and put it all away

Sort it into colour/fabric type, load machine, unload machine, hang up, fold and put away. Tiring and makes your back ache. While it's washing you are prepring/dealing with previous/next load. Plus doing everything else AND ironing it all. Yes piss easy. P.O.V. Tell me you don't do washing without telling me you don't do washing.

@@karenpenny3973 Tell me you're a woman that overly complicates jobs without telling me you're a woman that overly complicates jobs. Edit: I just seen your username is Karen.

Michael Sheen 😀

@@QueeferSutherland1 Definitely. Those two are bffs.

@@QueeferSutherland1 Thank you, of course it is, I just shouldn't try multitasking, lol. I have corrected it now.

@@jasonalldridge5784 Yeah we don't wanna know what your other hand was doing 😁

Except the giant house spider,Eratigena Atrica, which has a leg span of 120mm, or about the size of a compact disc! it's also the fastest spider in the world

​@@andreww2098WHAT

For our school it was similar except the top set was for the people who made the school look better, so good grades, good attendance, no problems for the school whatsoever.. Bottom set was those with disabilities, learning problems, low attendance, low grades, etc.. When it came to picking gcse topics for bottom set maths, English and science were all mandatory subjects that couldn't be swapped for anything and you HAD to pick either history or geography because one was necessary.. You then had to pick 3 more subjects which were of your own choice and of course lower sets didn't have to take a language course, they could choose to either keep or drop (which majority of us did). Top sets had to do 2 languages until gcses and then 1 lang was mandatory, they had to do both history and geography and the science tests were a lot more difficult and had different questions to that of the bottom set (I only know this because I accidentally sat the wrong mock science test one time though 😂), the same applies to that of the english and maths tests though and then to add to that they had to pick 3 other subjects.. So I'm rather grateful I was in bottom set for bad attendance lol Edit: also it didn't vary with many subjects, they kept you in the same set unless you did outstanding work but they wouldn't move you very far because our school lacked confidence in it's students and most of the time we got constant reminders on how we'd amount to nothing in life and would only ever fail 😅

@@lilskipper4683 I guess I kinda got a bit of a better deal.... though aside from English we had to do 3 languages until GCSE years, and even then being in Wales, Welsh was mandatory and you only had the option of doing short course. Same with Religious Studies which I hated. (Like I was done with the exam in 15 minutes and got a solid B for writing waffle) The sets were weird in my school since they had to contest with large student numbers. they only introduced it in year 9 for us and then that was only in preparation for year 10. We didn't mix classes up until this point. I did want to do double science instead of the separate sciences, but all my teachers pushed me to go for triple just because there were so many students in for double. Science classes were kind of special during the GCSE years since there were only 12 of us and we all spend a lot of time together because of this. All the double award classes were pushing 40 and it was chaos. We made our own chaos too. Triple science kids were treated different because we spent so much time together. Physics while my poorest of the science subjects was the best. We even had tea breaks, and this was a sworn secret between the teacher and those classes. Nearly got busted a few times because nearby classrooms could smell the brew lol

Lol in my school if it's hot outside you still have to come with a sweater and blazer. If it's cold and it's pe they don't let us wear coats outside

@@falconplayz9126 swear down teachers are psychopaths lol

They wear shorts because bare legs dry quicker than trousers when it's been pissing down with rain! 🙄

@@steddie4514 They wear them on dry days and in the summer too.

As a postman I can confirm I wear trousers, I do a rural round, there's to many stinging nettles and ticks to wear shorts where I deliver!
