Can I still get all A*s for my GCSEs by working very hard starting from NOW?

What do you think?

NO. People start revising as early as January and still get grades which are far away from straight As.
So, my answer is a no.

No, I haven't done GCSEs. However, I did equivalents to GCSEs because I didn't live in the UK then. All the subjects were the same. From my experience, I can tell it is impossible.

No revision:

A*, 5As, 1B, 1C.

You probably should've started a lot earlier tbh. But you can't go back now so just revise as hard as you can from now on. You can still get good grades.

Yes, you sound like you've got it organised so as long as you stick to your study program you should be fine. It doesn't sound like you struggle much at school so you should be able to understand and memorise everything pretty quickly. Good luck!

You are very welcome, AskJeevesCP.
yes, I did my GCSEs last year and I didn't revise until the day before and I received:
Maths (method): A*
Maths (applied): A*
English Lang: A
English Lit: A
Physics: A*
Chem: A*
Biology: A*
RE: A*
Drama: A
Astrology: A*
Business: A*
ICT: A*
Latin: A*
Psychology: A*

I am now happily finishing AS Levels (physics, maths/mechanics, chemistry and psychology) being predicted all As. I wouldn't risk it as it's not advisable- just do past papers:smile:
You can do it!!! Many people can cram the night before and still come out with great grades.

If you got those very high grades for your mocks with no revision, you can get much higher than that with some revision squeezed in.
