does any one have edexcel as thier exam board for maths??

I do.
I have 5 exams in 3 days next week :afraid: On Tuesday afternoon, I have English lit Unit 2 (Pre-1900 Prose), which is closed text, so the questions are easier but I need to memorise some quotes and make sure I know the context really well. On Wednesday morning I have sociology Unit 1 (Families and Households) and 2 (Education). I'm not worried about Education at all, but I have a crap teacher for Family and will basically have to teach myself the whole unit. Then on Thursday morning, I have French Unit 1 (Listening and Writing) and 2 (Reading and Writing), which I'm not really worried about as it's difficult to revise for it.

Awww *hugs* Don't worry, you'll be fine :smile: I think we've switched places. Originally you were really laid-back and I was really worried, now it's the other way around! At least you don't have sociology next week though. Have you had any English exams yet?

hehe sounds about right :smile: that's cos I don't start panicking until about a week before the exams; that's why I can't motivate myself to revise til the last minute. Then I totally freak out! Good luck with Sociology and French (not that you'll need it!)

Am kinda freaked atm because I can't make myself revise; I can't get an A in French; and I actually don't feel prepared for an exam on "The Miller's Tale" which is a bummer cos normally I can rely on English exams to "unpanic" me a bit :frown:

It's worrying me that I'm so relaxed this year :confused: For GCSEs I was really nervous, but now I have exams in 3 of my 4 subjects next week and yet I don't seem to be worried at all. I don't think I did fantastically well in the poetry section of my English exam last week, but I haven't been worried about that either. Thanks for the luck :smile: Sociology will be fun as I have a crap teacher for Unit 1, so me and my best mate are having a frantic cramming session tomorrow using these summary sheets our decent teacher for Unit 2 gave us. Luckily sociology is the kind of subject you can blag your way through :smile: I certainly did a fair bit of blagging in that poetry question!

Tbh, I don't know what to expect from myself as I have not really done as much revision as I think I should have. I have English Lit on Wednesday, and Spanish on Friday and Monday. English is the only one I'm worried about as with Spanish I can squeeze my way into a B without doing work. However my expectations for English are much higher. I want an A* in Lit, but besides doing practise timed essays and refreshing myself with the texts I haven't done much else. I'm the kind of person who cannot revise two months before because it'll all go out of my head. I'm a better worker under pressure!

I suppose one of the most relieving things about my exams is that I have already done my Art and Drama which is a big load out of the way. No I can focus on everything else, thank goodness Science and Maths are after half term!

Good Luck everyone

I'm sure you've done great :smile: and trust me it's much better to be relaxed - I've been waking up at 4am stressed to the eyeballs so I'm permanently knackered :frown: ho hum

Atm am helping my mum at intermissions to tutor a friend for her GCSEs, so that's... fun, but at least it means I can stop trying to cram the entire Letts guide's vocab on one day for a while, lol!

good luck with sociology, have fun cramming :smile:

icetopaz...: Don't worry that's what I did for English too and I got A* :smile: you can blag a high mark relatively easily as long as you know the text and spend a few mins planning the structure of your essay in the exam good luck :biggrin:

Thanks :smile: I guess it is good, but then on the other hand, if I wasn't so relaxed, I might actually do more than minimal amounts of revision!

My best friend's just gone home, and predictably we did more chatting than revising :redface: but at least we got the 2 worst topics done and talked through some past papers.
Wednesday morning - sociology - education.
