Hi there,
I've just finished year 10 so I'm about to dive into the deep end of my GCSE exams. My school entered me in to the maths and English language GCSE's this summer term, a year early, and I found out on results day I had achieved an A* in both!
I'm so overwhelmed with these grades but I don't know how to maintain them next year. I feel like I am under so much pressure this year as only 3 out of 200 students in my year who took the same exams got 2 A*s.
I want to go to Cambridge university to study law so this is a great start for me, yet I know next year will be so intense and so stressful.
Does anyone have any tips on how to cope? And any revision techniques? Or anything else I can be doing aside from school work?
My parents are so supportive of my school work as they know how much pressure I put myself under and my mum is paying for a tutor for me this year for science as it is my weakest subject but I feel like that's adding more pressure because my mum is investing money on my education.
I'm worried that my good grades this year will make me idle for next year and I'll forget how hard I had to work for those 2 exams alone, never mind the 11 or so subjects I have next year!
I'm looking to speak to someone who has felt the same anxiety I am feeling now who can give me some advice so if anyone has any helpful comments, please leave a comment
