lilacpotato&#x27;s GCSE Revision

Original post by sunshine774

Probably B1, but I really didn't like the paper we had! :s-smilie:

What about you? :smile:

Well I did Biology last year and I remember really liking B3 with all the heart stuff! But from the ones I'm doing this year, C3 is probably my favourite! :tongue:

Hi everyone!
I know it's kinda late to be making one of these threads considering exams are 3 weeks away but I've seen how motivational they can be so I thought I'd give it a go :smile:

I started my revision in February but I really want to make the most out of these remaining weeks and put an end to my procrastinating nature! :biggrin:

I guess I should let you guys know what I'm hoping for when I open the dreaded envelope on August 25th!

Maths - A*
English Language - A*
Chemistry - A*
Physics - A*
Geography - A*
French - A*
German - A*
R.E - A*
Astronomy - B/A (I'm doing this as an extra GCSE after school and it's super hard so I don't want to set my expectations too high!)

I did two exams last year: Biology and English Literature. I managed to get an A* in both - yay!
I'm very good at procrastinating during the week so I will be posting most days to motivate myself to get something done!
I would be happy to help anyone else with their studies and I would be equally happy to get advice from all you smart people! :smile:

We can do this! :biggrin:

Wow Naomi - this is amazing. You commented on how I do so much but you do a colossal amount so you should be really proud of yourself.

Like you have taken astronomy as an extra (I wish my school offered it, I took ICT as an extra so I wish you the best with it.

I can't wait to see what you get on results day as I'm sure it'll be amazing :biggrin:

The best of luck with the rest of your exams :smile:

Thank you so much Zoe (it is Zoe, right?!) :colondollar:

I can't decide whether astronomy was a blessing or a curse - I guess we will see... :wink:

Good luck to you too and thank you again! :biggrin:
