I'm finding that the resource that i purchased (mypeexam.org) has been really useful and i have some excellent notes from it. Now im just working through the workbook and will get to past papers soon.

I'm worried about the wording of questions because i know they will try to catch us out but I guess we have to go through it.

Anyone else got useful revision tips?

Good luck.

I find that learning mnemonics and acronyms are very helpful for the exam

I'm doing the PE theory on Friday, and I have to get an A at least, so does anyone have predictions, and revision tips?

Hi, whats your practical mark? this is 60% of the GCSE. Other than that make sure you learn your 6 mark question structure, as this is where most people loose their marks (national average is 2/6).
Also revise methods of training, and components of fitness (HRC and SFC) as they always come up. Check the Edexcel website for past papers and mark them

Does anyone know any really good free revision resources? I feel like the book is not good enough. Also, what do you guys think would equate to an A*?
