Don't be fooled learning the content is not easy, just easier than getting all the motivation to dedicate time to studying :tongue:.

Make sure you're consistent and take regular breaks. Don't go on overdrive and end up tiring yourself out.

If you need any more help, just ask. :smile:

I'll be sure to do so :smile: thanks.

Hey guys, I'm in year 10. I usually in tests get between 82-88% (most tests, english and classics maybe 76+ lol) I'm doing IGCSE mainly. If I keep this up (and improve english and classics) do you reckon I could mostly A* in GCSE/ IGCSE's? I'm taking 11 right now.

Tbh, you're doing better than me. I'm in the same yr as you and i'm getting B's in english and C's in maths and I couldn't care less.

What percentages are you getting though? Because right now your teachers probably aren't marking to the actual GCSE papers.
It's very easy to get straight A's in GCSE's
I have a friend who failed every test but ended up getting 6A's and 2B's in the actual exams without attempting a single past paper.
Okay, maybe one or two but you know what i mean


So yeah, i think you're doing pretty well.
