I've compiled a list of vocab throughout this and a last year and just revising it. It's just random words/phrases. Then on the german text book I learned the vocab for specific topics 1-9.

Anyone else ****ed for friday? Business studies i dont have motivation for

I enjoy business. I still have business plans and cash flow to revise. The course is shorter than last year and easier imo because we did that CAT that took up to Christmas.

Do you know how many marks you roughly need for an A in the listening papers?

How's everyone finding geography revision? I am absolutely deceased after those two exams and I'm contemplating just going to sleep and revising in the morning..


im the same. im forcing myself to do an hour or two since I cannot get those case studies into my head. it doesn't help our teacher literally whizzed right past them. unit 2 is harder than unit 2 for me, but atleast a lot of it is case studies. there's not many processes like unit 1.

for business studies im a little screwed. last week i went over break even and cash flow theory again and again, so hopefully that pays off a little. i also went over HR a bit bt still have to learn legislation. the topics on growth and international trade & e-commerce aren't that hard, anyway. just gotta learn em. i like business studies unit 1 much more than unit 2. our teacher was off sick for two weeks in february, meaning we had to go really fast to get everything covered. it was a nightmare. i really liked the unit 1 exam though, so hopefully that holds me up :\

MEEE :biggrin: I already have 57% (Unit 1 and CA) but business is so boring I can't bring myself to revise. I have bio on Friday as well which I need to concentrate on more because I am really bad at biology lol.

Im the exact same! English i wrote 3 and a bit for each, and my unit one was atrocious, so idek anymore im sitting on all A* coursework but apart from that i dont know how it will balance out. I got religion done with 10 mins to spare so im a bit concerned and it was the same in my school, nobody knew Thomas Aquinas, i did get it though thankfully. and i didnt sleep a wink last night.


Well quality over quantity, I just hope we've written enough. I don't know what my coursework mark is but I do know I was top of my year (of around 300 people) so I hope it's very near full marks. Unit 1 I only think I got a B in though unit 2 most likely an A so unless I do better than I thought I've lost my A* :frown:

Thats class! Im on about 52/53 duno about the possibility of an a* would need almost full marks for it in unit 2

Your the same as me lol!
What way is everyone revising for business studies?
Anyone with German answers? Need reassurance. Actually found the start of the paper harder than most other papers.

Is your German exam CCEA? For some reason ours is AQA despite CCEA having German. AQA is quite easy but the second half of the listening was literal torture.

my teacher did the test and showed it to us after and i think i got the majority of the questions right. i thought it was a good test compared to others but the probably means the reading will be hard.

I did German today as well! I know a lot of people in my school found it really hard?? I thought it could have been worse but I'm just so unsure of my answers!
