    Yeah good call :-) Well each each is out of 30 right, and you do 2 orals and 2 writing? I got 105/120 so it could be worse! :-) What about you? And how do you go about learning your vocab? I have posters everywhere but I am definitely missing some kind of magic method!?
    I don't remember exactly what I got, but I got between 27 and 30 for all of them
    I just repeat the word over and over until it sinks in, or try and associate it with something that will help me remember it. I have a pretty good memory though so I don't find vocab learning too difficult. Just got to find the motivation to actually do it
    Anyway going now, I have to watch football

    I'll support whoever wins Although England are apparently starting with the same team as against Ukraine, so I can't see them producing too much up front.
    8 A*'s, 5 A's and a B (Already got 1 A* and 1 A). I think they were more of a challenge than a prediction, but I'll fin out in August You?
    Wow wow wow you do so many subjects best of luck in predicted 8A* 3A won't get that

    Still stuck with German next Wednesday... *sigh*

    This is actually stupid! I started with the first exam of the GCSE season (French on 14 May) and will end with the last GCSE exam on the last day (German on 27th June).
