We don't get to know what we got on the coursework, but i did the physical paper last year and got an A*, how about you? :smile:

I got an A* and an A*/A (hasn't been moderated yet so don't know) in my coursework :smile:

How is revision going for this Monday's exam going? Is it your last exam too?

Oh snap! Im hoping that grade boundaries dont go up this year, so we stay on a*s! Oh gawd, ive barely even begun how about you? The aqa gcse book is really good and detailed i find though- so fingers crossed and no it isnt- unfortunatly i have chemistry unit 1 on friday :rolleyes:

I know! All of me and my friends were talking about how fast they're over...I can't actually believe I will have finished by monday..it's crazy! :biggrin:

I am using CGP book for revision, its perfect; since everything I am studying (all 3 topics) have been condensed into 27 pages :wink:

Because I get bored so easily reading the normal textbooks since topics can stretch onto like 50 pages:/ I have finished one topic so far, now I have two to go :smile:

Oh god, what a shame! But do you know what, apparently most people found the june 2012 paper much harder than our one so the grade boundaries may move down - in which case you may find yourself scraping an a* :wink:

B - But I'm not very confident now, its unlikely i'll get an A this time
