Oh good luck! I got straight Cs on mine last year and that's good for me considering I just messed about and did no revision what soever. Don't stress, just revise the content and you're sure to do well!

Are you sure? After this summer you have to do all the exams for a GCSE in the same exam season so, whilst you could complete Science this year and do Additional Science next year, you cannot do part of Biology (or Chemistry or Physics) this year and then the rest next year.
I've only got one, but I'm quite glad as it's Physics (resit of P1) so I can concentrate on it. I got a B the first time... Physics is my worst science though and I'd given up before even doing it. Now I'm being more positive and revising I keep getting A's, sometimes A*'s on the past papers so hopefully I can get an A in this one, then I'll have A's in all of the unit 1's.
I have C1, P1 and B2 resits and C2 and P2 for Science and Spanish resits.

Most people in my years are taking Chemistry 1, Physics 1 and Biology 1 (not Biology 2) as well though so I'm lucky I've already sat them

This is kinda hard to explain ...

in year 9 we revised all of unit 1 .
in year 10 people doing seperate(triple) sciences learn unit 2 while the rest revise unit 1 again.

In january 2013 we have a unit 1 exam. Then for those doing seperate sciences , we have another test ( unit 2) in june.

I understand that, but the rules are changing and for people completing GCSEs after this summer the whole GCSE has to be taken in a single exam season. This means that you either have to complete separate sciences this summer, or take all the exams again next year.
