What did you get in your gcse's

Scroll to see replies

5A's and 5A*'s

2A*'s
4A's
3B's

BTEC Business - Distinction* (apparently = 2A*'s, but no one thinks that. Would've done a GCSE in the subject if my school offered it)

Only revised during study leave by reading through revision guides... Should've revised more. Tried this tactic at AS, didn't work quite so well.

Do you writing notes help? Thank you for your advice :smile:

Definitely! Plus notes are easier to go over afterwards (as opposed to textbooks), seeing as you can make them more concise. No worries :h:

Ahaha, that's alright - I probably did a few hours a day during easter on average, but in reality I tend to do long periods of studying then long periods of procrastination :biggrin:

When I was really close to exams, it was literally just past papers & looking over the notes on the stuff I really wasn't sure of.

Ditto, although nowadays it feels like I spend most of my time with nada motivation :tongue:

AS are fun, although I'm doing 5 (6 if you want to count an EPQ) so they're a tad stressful at times..

Why thank you :h:

Haha, you may have done if you're into MUN.

Every time When I revise I start thinking of me opening my envelope on results day.. I get so stressed :frown:

4A*'s 2A's 3B's

12A*s and an A in additional maths, which is the highest you can get.

good enough results to get me into the best university in the country.

Maybe because the A-level system is changing GCSE results will become a more important part of your application, but I have seen some of my friends with 11A*'s get rejected at Oxbridge.

Basically if you f*** up your aptitude test for Oxbridge, no number of A*'s at GCSE will save you, and you still won't make the cut. Also interviews play a big role (especially Oxford).
