Hi guys, what are you aiming for, come GCSE time? Love, Klint.


um well im doing 6 gcses (i did 7 last year) so 4 A*s and an A in drama, plus an A* with distinction in aqa further maths.
and i'm doing 3 AS levels and i would like As in them all (though i'd be happy with 2 As and 1 B).
Hey! My name says it all really,(bookworm) my biggest hobby is probably reading haha! I'm in my last year of compulsory schooling and I'm currently trying to find a sixth form that ticks the boxes for me! I'm doing 10 GCSES and I'm hoping for to get 9 A*-B grades and I'm just hoping for a pass in maths! I'm not to sure about future careers but next year I'm hoping to do RE, English Lit & History! I'm also debating between a forth AS and the contenders are Classical Civilisation, Politics, Psychology & Business Studies. :smile:

Well, my school is open during the holidays. Pherhaps email one of your teachers, to possibly find out if you can go to school any of the days.

Haha yeah they are :biggrin: I'm praying that I'll pass too, I'll be so annoyed if I have to retake Maths while doing my A Levels :frown: Yeah our subjects are quite similar :smile: My GCSE subjects are English Lit, English Lang, Maths, Double Science, ICT, Psychology, Spanish and R.S. I wish I'd chosen History instead of ICT though!

What part of maths do you find hard?

I think it'll be good to prioritise it now because it will just be another year/more to worry about next year if you retake :s-smilie:

I'm going to try doing half a maths past paper each day... my maths is getting rusty because we covered the course in year 9/10 but didn't take the test :rolleyes:

YOOOOO THIS IS FOR MY FELLOW NON-CHOSEN-ONES (OR WEIRDLY SMART ONES) IN MATHS, I FOUND THIS WEBSITE AND ITS LIKE IT'S BEEN WRITTEN BY GODS

https://keshgcsemaths.wordpress.com/gcse-maths-takeaway/

My maths teacher uses it all the time. If you find a topic hard/need to improve, indulge on this! It tells you what grade your worksheet is too. Go craaaaazzyyyy

Sorry if you've already used this website :colondollar:

I'm just struggling with a lot and I'm barely passing any of my GCSE's. I'm going to college next year and when i did my interview to get my place they said that if i end up taking English and Maths again it's fine and it just means that i need to go in another day a week... (course I'm doing is three days a week... :P )
