As well as the standard compulsory, my options are history, geography, business studies and German. So much work to do, and too little time to do it in... Also with the added fear that GCSE's will be taken into account for uni places now with removal of AS it's pretty scary!

:rave: I believe in you!! :rave:

:headbang:

You can cope with the workload, just be prepared and manage your time wisely. The Study Planner is pretty useful because it will help you prioritise your work. :h:

Also worth checking out the exam thread list to see if your exams are in there. It's useful speaking to others doing the same subjects. :h:

Sometimes exam worry can be a rabbit in the headlights situation so try not to let it get to you. :h: Just try to focus and do what you need to do - the exams are still a long way off yet. :h:

yeah I know exactly what you mean! I started studying relatively early de/jan time and I'm doing about 4 hours everyday on top of school time. But I'm doing IB, you might want to do less. I'm keeping an excel spreadsheet which calculates how many hours I've done per subject and how much time I've wasted which is so helpful to let me track how much work in doing. Try it! You'd be surprised how much bias you have towards some subjects!
