XTim96's GCSE Journeyy

Inspired by many other threads like this, I have decided to make my own in order to achieve my educational goals

At the moment im 15, having finished year 10 I will be going into year 11 on the 5th of September I attend a public school and although my grades at the monent are quite good I would like to better myself.I will be sitting the new spec maths and english, and good maths grades are vital as this is what my future careers/ studies will focus on

I would like in the future to have the possibility of attending Oxford or Cambridge University, or even just a RG.

At A-Level I would like to take Maths, Further Maths and Economics, however this could change

This is what I got in my latest mocks ( next to it are my targets underlined , which were basically all A's but I know I can do better)

English Literature and Language (AQA): A 8/9

Maths (Edexcel) B 7/8/9

History ( AQA) C A - Ahhh I need to improve dearly in history however for my coursework I expect an A/A*

French ( AQA) A A - However I am not a modern speaker and need to revise vocab over the summer, my coursework is equivalent to an A ( 60% of the final grade is coursework) I regret picking French

Science ( OCR ) A A* - I know I am very good at each unit, I will see my next exam result to see indivually how well I am doing with Chemistry, Biology, Physics

Religious Studies A* A* - In all tests this year I got an A or higher , sometimes full marks

Additional info :

I may take an additional statistics exam for another GCSE, also I really need to improve my French vocab and pronounciation I may test programmes like Rosetta Stone for learning a language, I know languages arent something that can be crammed for so regular revision is key in order for me to excel in this subject.

When My NIS number comes, I will try and attain a part time job but only if I am satisfied with my school progress, furthermore I hope to start going gym regularly maybe learning a new skill such as coding or java or just another basic skill. This summer Ive already revised quite a bit of maths, such as frustums, iteration and new spec stuff and also reviewed two test and corrected where I have went wrong. Additionally I have done some science B1/B2 revision.

Best of luck!x I did my gcse's in may, so feel free to PM me; I would love to help!

Really need to start doing more work,
Day 11-13
English
Got my confirmed speaking grade distinction
Re
Had a test on the reconcilliation unit, looked at a lot of biblical references for this unit
History
Been Reading over my notes, answered many six mark questions just need to focus on 10 markers
Maths
Looked at a bit of a level maths, also time series graphs and circle theorems
French
Studied past and future tenses and irregular verbs
Science
Done a lot of C3 work fairly simple, need to learn batch process info

Awesome! What topics did you look at?

We looked at the three laws of logs, and also a bit overlapping subjects in GCSE/ A levle Maths , quite enjoyable and useful to be honest, just to get a taster for what one of my likely future subjects at a levels may be like
