I got 6 homeworks for tomorrow... I only got them on Wednesday as well... So yeah, it's understandable. One English essay, the rest past papers...

Today marks the day where I begin to take my revision seriously. My first exam is Chemistry on May 13th. I am taking IGCSEs and hopefully 6 weeks will be enough to revise everything as I am only taking 5 subjects (I should of taken more I know but at least I'll get two igcses from da science).

The people who said they haven't started a few days ago have you now? :biggrin:

after tomorrow and i'm starting hardcore revision as i haven't started due to coursework and i have to self teach myself everything i have learnt in the past two years,
thankfully i can grasp concepts easily when i have my notes in front and a few youtube videos but i'm beginning to get this feeling like i'm completely screwed, past papers is going to be my saviour

I do! We've still got to cover the majority of Theme 3 and about 8 more case studies in lessson. tbh I haven't really looked at any of them since I've written them up so I'm working through them (seeing as geog's on of my first exams) alongside my other subjects and my teacher is RUBBISH and never in so i'm trying to partially teach myself stuff as well. predicted an A* for geography but i think i'd be lucky to scrape a C in the exam. basically i'm totally screwed

Urgh I can relate! We've soent way too much tine on our controlled assessment and now we've got to learn more case studies from a new booklet and we've got around 5 weeks until our unit 1 exam! I need all the help AMD revision I can get bur at the pace we're going it probably won't happen:/ wish I was predicted an A* xD im on a B working to an A! I work as hard as I can and I really want that A!!! :P what case studies do you have for unit 1, living in the built environment booklet? I really dont understand some of mine!:/

Same! We did nothing BUT controlled assessment since December/January and only just properly finished it this month but I'm glad i've finished ALL of my c/a for all of my subjects FINALLY. Most of my theme 1 case studies are based around my area (London) so like housing and retail stuff in my borough etc but for the other ones we did migration from cerea to sao paolo and the yorkshire dales. The case study i hate the most so far is on ecosystems, i haven't even looked at it properly yet and i don't plan to any time soon, its soooooo long. and with case studies we've just been told to 'learn them' in other words memorise them as much as we can which hasn't been going very well :/

but on the plus side i've found a few good websites from other schools that help with revision as well since we've only got our classwork to revise from but hopefully i can somehow try to 'learn' the case studies and understand the work in geog so i can hopefully at least write something down in the exam no thanks to my useless teacher

Haha, just don't worry about them! I just made a few notes for each subjects and did the past papers - Most exams were pretty easy but english was horrendous...

I haven't done any. How many hours you doing a day?

KFGHDSHGJKFD. OMG.

I've been feeling really bad recently about not having done any revision, so I was going to make a thread to see if there was anyone else in my shoes, then I find this thread!

Haha, I feel much better now, but in all seriousness, I think it's time to revise :/

*Looks at chemistry book*

On second thoughts... :s-smilie:
