Hows your Easter revision going?

Edit: Didn't notice this was a gcse thread, damn front page but,

GCSE's aren't too bad, I didn't start revising until a few weeks before

Just out of interest, what were your grades?

I think they were 7 A*'s, 5A's and a B?

Good by some people's standards, bad by others

At the end of the day, for everyone in our year, GCSEs really didn't matter at all when applying to uni (unless you're looking at Oxbridge), so I wouldn't stress too much, just do the best you can and it will be fine.

I'm kinda slacking a bit too- I got Chemistry up to an A* standard, learnt about a minute of a language oral presentation and I've done a couple of past papers in some other subject but thats literally it.

That's solid. Would you say there's still sufficient time to replicate yours grades? The major stumbling block for me is that I don't think the task is achievable given the time left, which demotivates me.

Getting stuff done but at a ridiculous snail pace....

So you could say, I'm doing badly.

I just can't seem to be able to bring myself to care

aww bless u I was like that too!i first started to get going by music in my ears...got me going!then I carried on without it..try it if u like!what are u studying anyways?

Just curious: How did you get chemistry to an A* standard? (As in what have you spent time doing for it?) I have been trying to revise and improve chemistry, but since I am doing further additional and there are basically no past papers available, its hard to know what to do :O

i do that sometimes but i end up getting distracted by creating new playlists.

what can i say, i'm a procrastination pro. It's ok, once I get into the flow, it'll be fine. Just slow starting this easter... Whyyyyy.

I'm studying gcses (triple science, english lit and lang, french, geography, history, latin )and D1 (maths).
Wbu?

haha lol thats grt!im doing triple science,english lit and lang,graphic products,business studies and history.
aww dont worry youll get there!wanna study together?im doing gcses too btw
im in yr10

I'm doing edexcel IGCSE chemistry and Ive literally found it so hard for such a long time but like last year for my summer exams, this year for mocks and now again ive spent about a week or two cramming in the specification but I find that the more I learn on the spec, the more I gradually understand things and then I did 5 past papers and i got it up from a B to an A* If you make sure you know everything on the spec like things will start to make more sense because you can link different facts together a bit more

no maths? Graphic products sounds cool - not available at my school so I have no idea what it is but still! It sounds awesome.

hopefully i will :P
Ahaha, i suck at studying with people irl - it either goes down the procrastination route or the frustrated 'debate' route (aka me getting annoyed for no reason)... But other than that, I'd be happy to give help if I can (obvs not with graphic products ). Just PM me or something.

Ur in Year 10! I don't remember revising in the easter holidays when I was in year 10 good for you for being productive You should check out the Year 10 thread btw
I'm in year 11 eeeek!
