GCSE A* Study Group

Hi guys,
So I'm pretty new to TSR and I thought it would be helpful for me and possibly some of you to keep track of my GCSE revision and work for the actual exams next May/June.

I'm studying 12 subjects which are:

English Language ~ WJEC
English Literature ~ WJEC
Maths ~ AQA
Chemistry ~ AQA
Physics ~ AQA
Biology ~ AQA
I.C.T. ~ IGCSE (Cambridge)
R.E. ~ OCR
History ~ OCR
Geography ~ AQA
French ~ AQA
Spanish ~ AQA

I'm predicted A's for everything but I've challenged myself to get as many A*s and possible 😊

I basically just want this thread to be somewhere to share revision tips/techniques, study timetables and just general GCSE stuff :tongue:

Let me know if you have any questions about anything :smile:

Enjoy!

I understand them, but they're not my favourites. What about you?

I'm aiming for 9-11A*s, we should definitely all help each other. I'm doing the same exam board as you in French, English Language and English Literature.

Are you doing any BTECs? Or is anyone taking any BTECs this year? Because my school forced us to do 3 BTECs :sports, business and EDCL. This means that I will only be taking 8 solid GCSEs. English language and lit, maths, core science, add science, French, geography, and Health and social care

My school is fairly similar but we're doing an engineering BTEC instead, since that's what the school specialises in. Unfortunately, it means that some people will only be taking 6 GCSEs (Maths, English Lang, English Lit, Core Science, 2 options). Luckily, I'm able to take 9 because I asked very nicely :laugh:

(Maths, English Lang, English Lit, Separate Sciences and 3 options) and predicted A* in every single one but I doubt that it going to happen. Just going to have to work extra hard and hope for the best :s-smilie:
