English Language, English Literature. Hate how my teacher blabs on about being "perceptive".
Worst subject!
LATIN.

Omg it was hard. It was the one subject you had to actually revise. By revise, I mean learn the translations by heart. (6 translations, averaging 1,500 words each)

+ more. It is also extremly intellectually demanding.
Ok, what subject were they?

Food Tech. Purely because the coursework is SO BORING and takes BLOODY FOREVER.
And I had a two hour exam about eggs.

Hard because it's boring and you want to kill it. Not because of the content :tongue:


Gosh, I'm doing my food tech coursework now. I agree, it's taking AGES.
I'm voting further maths. Ha, its comparable to a level maths.
For me, Spanish

Probably a Language like French if you don't have a genuine interest in it:colondollar:

BY FAR it's English Language, Lit and then Physics only because it's sometimes hard to understand.

Scottish history & anthropology. I'm told it's vary monotonous. though I suspect that most people wouldn't get a GCSE in common sense.

english lit+lang, art...i was never really good at arts/humanities
I would say French because I'm doing some exams after the Easter holidays for my GCSES; I wish I picked Spanish like my friends
as the reading/oral/writing exams are a lot easier compared to French. However, I'm nearly at the end of Year 11 and I can't turn back now :frown:
history.
so much to memorise and so many essays.
the course work is also ridiculously boring.
Latin is death, especially since the grade boundary is so hard and theres so much to learn :frown: English lit isnt great either but the grade boundary is fairly low at least, and a lot of people found RS really hard bc the A* boundary is 93%
