how stupid.....
I dont get why people just start now when there is too much stuff to learn. Good luck with cramming but ur better off starting now and doing 2-3 after school everyday & long hours on the weekend
Have you made any resources (flashcards, posters etc.) or are you literally starting from scratch?
As long as you're comfortable in some of your subjects you'll be alright - just carry on with your 2-3 hours a night and cram the night before/day of your exam.

Ok, well I think you'll be fine. I've made all my flashcards, but I've only learnt half of them, and I think I'll be fine. It's possible. Just learn all your resources asap and move onto past papers...

Same. They're giving us a P2 mock for some reason when P2 in more than a month. They're just giving us unnecessary work and I don't know what to revise for the best...

omg same ive got a p3 mock on thursday which makes no sense because its actually my last gcse exam( june 17th) AND we havent been over p1 since year 10, which is one of the exams that are in the second week. Its stupid.

Tell your teacher about it and refuse to do the exam. I don't understand why, but it seems that physics teachers have a nasty habit of doing this.
Good luck
