Year 11s GCSEs 2 months

How does everyone feel about GCSEs being around 2 months away?
This thread isn't here to scare you but to motivate you to revise :smile: I've seen a lot of people complaining and moaning about GCSEs and not wanting to fail. You've got 2 months you can turn those D grades into B-A* grades, the E and F grades into C+ grades and the U grades (hopefully none of you guys haha) also into C+ grades :smile: turn that negativity into positive energy!
Yr 12s and 13s can also join in if they wish to :smile:

Mostly excited to just get the subjects I don't like over and done with but defo scared about results day! I want results day to come quickly but also want it to never come!
Great advice though :smile: has motivated me!

.. pretty nervous to be honest XD
I too can't wait to scrap half my subjects aha. It's just like steady pressure at the moment, where it feels like 'you should be revising' but 'you also need to watch that episode of ^^^^, because you missed it on thursday night'. 😂😇

Well im actually procrastinating on this, amidst my search for information on my physics ISA tomorrow.. not good ahaha.
Whenever I mention it's only two months away everyone screams at me for being unhelpful and scaring them (though it's usually the people who put in no effort who complain)

What subjects are you guys taking this year and what do you want to do next year?

I'm taking triple science, compulsory subjects, French, Geography, Drama and Religious Studies as well as an FSMQ in additional maths. I was planning on taking another two languages outside of school, but I never got round to it - #mylife

I want to take Maths, Physics, Further Maths and Chemistry next year.
Hopefully everyone will be able to get the grades they want and do the subjects they want to for their A Levels!

-Really need an A in Maths to do Maths at A level but scared I won't get it as I am always 7-9 marks off an A in mocks we do.
I'm pretty pissed tbh, I'm 1 mark off an A* in Maths, French and Science! I swear I'm cursed
I've been revising for over a month now, I feel like I'm making progress and I've scheduled it so I should be prepared for all my exams. At the moment I'm feeling fairly optimistic (not for C3 and P3 though haha) so its fine, just gotta keep working :smile:
