Just using past papers and redoing questions I struggled on again and again - that was only a mock though :smile:

Wow ok, I have 17 or 18 exams but get 10 GCSEs at the end of it - this is strange

If it helps: two weeks after results day, you won't give two farts about your GCSE's, let alone how many of them you have.

Yeah it's whatever works best for you and if that makes you more productive then it is probably for the best :smile:

Well done - and I have the IT OCR national as my first exam and we've only just been told what the exam is based on so I have to start revising too :biggrin:

Really well done and good luck with the weekend revision I'm sure you'll ace it :biggrin:

I can't believe you do the same IT exam! Do you have any revision cards or materials I could use? So far the only things I have done for the R001 exam are reading the case study and learning about input devices, IT is my worst nightmare...

I have 23/24 exams to get 9 GCSEs and an A level, it's very strange how it varies so much for everyone! It's nice that I already have 2 GCSEs that were done in year 10 too.

Were you always a whizz at maths or did you improve gradually by repeating this process of doing a maths paper and learning from mistakes? How long did it take you(if you weren't always just a whizz at maths!)?

hey everyone, when is your first exam? what exam is it?

Posted from TSR Mobile

My first exam is French (listening and reading), 16th May followed by IT and Core 1 Maths back to back as they clash on the 17th May- dreading them! On one day I have 3 exams back to back, it's going to be awful...

There are many ways and if you want the best possible chance I would suggest finding out which ways you like best by experimenting now whilst you have the chance - I wish I had

As you are on the new GCSEs you really need to know everything inside out so the more times you go over things the better chance you have of remembering them :smile:

Thanks so much for the information but I have a new specification and most of them are draft but for maths it came up but I don't quite get it ? please can you send me private message to help me thanks :smile:
