Hello :biggrin:

Haven't started revision, probably will start in Feb half term/ early march since I have a really short term memory :redface:

So far, it hasn't actually hit me yet that they are this year so I'm feeling pretty chill

Yep, 60% controlled assessment (2 x 20 hour assessments) :colonhash:
Good thing is that the exam is only 40% :h:

Thank you :smile: ! And yes, first exams are on the 17th May, and last ones are on the 17th June. Is that the same for you?
I've made my exam timetable already (my school hasn't told us when the real exams will be, so I decided to search it all up). That's about the only thing I've done to prepare for the GCSEs.
