Good luck with yours too!

Seems to be a bit surreal with the exam being so soon :P


I know! It's gonna be weird for me, first time I'll be sitting that many exams, only 8, but I'm in year 10...

Argh I understand you, I was in your position last year.

Make sure to revise thoroughly beforehand and relax when you get in there. It's always a bit nerve wracking when you take your first official exam :smile:

Are they morning exams or afternoon ones?

If there are any where there are 2 in a day, the frees in-between are quite good to revise with friends. Obviously revising yourself is more important but doing it in a group can sometimes alert you to things that you thought you knew but you actually didn't :P

What subjects are they by the way?

So I'm assuming your doing 7 GCSEs?


This year yes, but I have to add the 3 sciences, geography and IT = 7+5 = 12 GCSE's altogether
