What did you get in GCSE's?

Wow how did you revise for literature I want an A*

Oh my god if I got them results I could get in the school I want!! What did you get separately if you don't mind me asking? And well done!! Amazing work

When studying further maths did you look at A-level tutorials? I'm thinking about using those to further my understanding because im taking it atm

Hi, what did you guys get in GCSE's, I'm trying to motivate myself to get top grades.

Not top grades at all

5A 3B 2C D if I recall correctly. For reasons I've explained in the forum. Regrettably, I did even more poorly in PE than I expected despite getting an A* in the written exam because I wasn't able to do the coursework for medical reasons.

What sort of grades do you need to get into your school out of interest?

Haha how weird i made a thread about this x

I got A*s in Further Science, Core Science, English language, history and sociology. The As were in maths and RE, then the Bs were in English lit, additional science (I took it in year 9) and Spanish (also taken in year 9). Rather disappointingly, I also have a C in AS Spanish which I took in year 10. Any help or advice, feel free to ask!

I'm not 100% sure but my friends cousin got 3A*'s 3A's 1B and 1C and he got in

There was a very good revision website called 'SAM Learning' (this was 8 years ago but it might still be around) which had some very useful stuff relevant to the novel we studied. Literally no idea how I got an A* as I've never been an avid reader, but it's more about your essay writing technique and including 'originality' in the exam answers (not many English teachers tell students this, but that's how you get an A* provided you meet all the other criteria).

You will make the grades! Trust me the examiners are far kinder than you anticipate

A*, 8As, 3Bs, 0.5 Cs

what do u mean by 0.5 c .half a gcse ?

Yeah I did a short course in Citizenship

daaaamn thats amazing.

what are you doing now?

Oh my god and I'm doing 9 GCSE's and I can't get 9 A*'s??

Dw u really don't need A*s in everything at GCSE, a few would be helpful though if ur aiming for Russell group unis! My best advice is to use the specifications carefully when you're revising and learn the scoring points in mark schemes for common questions

Ok but what if I can't get a lot of A*'s say if I got 1A* 6A's 2B's is that ok? For Russell group?
