I did literally none and got 10 A*. GCSE is a joke.

Study leave? My study leave starts 2 days before my exams do. When did yours start?
For GCSEs it started after three of my exams, but then I had a large amount of time before any other exams

Well, I suppose it's possible: for example, with science, I can just remember all of the content from memory- I just don't need to revise.
Maths takes no revision- it's skill based and I also find it easy - I'm a sciencey person.
Now, where I can't understand not revising is English, where you need to learn texts well - and for my exam, I need to know a play, around 10 short stories and around 10 poems. That's about 21 different plots to learn; 21 different styles of writing; 21 completely contrasting pieces of literature! That needs revision.
Latin- the literature papers need good revision- you need to know the translations of the set texts well enough and the stylistic features of the latin.
And that's probably just the start- GCSEs aren't difficult at all, but you do need to actually KNOW the content going into the exam.. So you need to revise, otherwise you'll have forgotten it all.

Yarp, their further maths books are really cool :P no bs in it, all maths no ramble sometimes their science books just ramble a load of balls imo. They have many past papers and the questions are nicely layed out so probably my favourite board though I only do CCEA, so my judgement is extremely biased :P

I literally just want maths, nothing else.
Yeah, your judgement probably isn't the most reliable
I hate AQA science papers- they're like 50% science and 50% random crap that shouldn't be science. ESPECIALLY in Biology. Ugh -_-Original post by GoldGhost
Ready to start some serious revision this morning, I'll check back later in my break to let you all know how that's going :P
Same!! See you guys!!

You guys/girls with your 10+ GCSEs 
Back in my day (last year

I keep reading loads of wiki-hows and stuff on Oxbridge and revision and exams and I have all my notes organised but I just can't sit down and do ANYTHING
Most of my friends have started revising but I'm just sat here like nope I'm gonna read a book on german grammar just because I can and feels better to procrastinate when it's learning something (just wish I could actually be reading something useful for like, an exam.) Oh weel. I'm aiming for 9A*s and 3Bs because I'm so delectably smart but at this rate there's not much chance
