Out of all the GCSEs, maths is probably by far the most straightforward to get an A* in :smile:

The natural sciences have more abstract concepts and theories involved, but maths is literally just about memorising methodology and practicing how to apply it.

No at all , I'm actually so disappointed because I haven't chosen A level math instead of IGSCE again :frown: IGSCE is very easy but it will be my first EXTERNAl EXAM I was just wondering

If you're finding it hard maybe you should switch to btec maths

Yes I'll just do my best to get the A* I like my this year I always hated it but idk everything changed this year

I understand how you feel because you really do need a good maths teacher to understand maths if you have not got the aptitude. I am sure you will be fine and even if you do not get an A*(fingers crossed you will) it is not the end of the world as you could still do maths A level(that is if you are intending to) if you get a minimum B grade but if not then it will still be fine (as long as you pass that is)

For me past papers is the best way , I can't enter even an internal test at school without revising some questions from past papers

Haha of course not! At least I hope they haven't made one these days, would be pretty special.


There used to be. It wasn't popular and withered away.
