    You needed to be there like a couple of months when we made the list. Ask g.k if you can go on, the group members have to agree :sexface:

    I hate those threads where people discuss the exams like ages after they did it, seriously you'll get what you get, don't keep going on about it it wont make you feel any better
    Ahhh, I was being sarcastic because i've only just come back, I was on the thread a few months ago too, but now we're at the business end, the discussions are better than they were before.

    School work is boring, it mostly doesn't relate to the exams at all. Doing past papers and stuff really makes you see how much you know etc..

    Try 'multi-quoting' too! Then maybe you wouldn't fill up the pages so quickly!!! And we could actually see conversation

    And people revise at different times so you have a sea of generic comments all the time:
    • "Need to get revising"
    • "Just did 4 hours of revision, going to do 6 more!"
    • "Done no revision, let's go and do 15 hours!"
    • "Am I the only one revising 13 hours a day?"

    Hahaha! You're absolutely right. I bet a quarter of the last 2000 posts in Thread mark II were along those lines!! I'm not a huge reviser, and those posts always make me feel bad! Like I'm not trying hard enough!

    Not a quartter! And I wouldn't worry. it gets to me to. Like today I thought I did a lot of revision and I added it up and it turned out to be 4 hours which I think is a lot. And then there are people here saying 6 hours isn't enough and then you have got the eannoying sixth fromers and uni students saying oh revise the night before and it an A*

    So frustratin!!!!

    I was exaggerating mate 4 hours is a lot! I did 1.5! And that's enough for me!! 4 hours is loads!!! O.o
    People also over exaggerate when they say you only have to revise that night before to get an A*.

    Exactly. The only subject for which that is true for is GCSE Maths! And sciences I can revise for if I have 2 days in which to revise!! But that would be if there aren't any other exams in these 2 days!

    I know, you only have to revise an hour before. Jokes.

    People do but far too much revision in though for GCSEs.
