English went well today - nice questions from Edexcel again! :biggrin:

Only been doing stuff for my exams tomorrow...

Geography - Finished past paper and did quizzes
German - Major vocab recap on vocab tester and from textbook

Not too worried about German, hopefully OCR will be feeling kind for Geography! :s-smilie:

German was pretty good - listening wasn't too bad, reading was great! :biggrin:

Geography skills was a bit of a horrible paper but I did as well as I could - at least it only counts for 25%! :s-smilie:

Best of all, Geography is done!! :biggrin:

I'd say relatively well, had Geography today and messed up the last 8 mark question, gave all the correct information for the case study, but wrote the wrong case study name

That's good! :smile:

That must be so annoying - surely you'll still get some marks though, right?

If I remember correctly, that was exactly what I thought after my B2 and B3! B2 is always a bit of an odd one I think :smile:

Well done! How many exams do you have left now?

At the moment I am making big posters on each section - some people say it's a waste of time making them look pretty but for me, the time it takes doing it is a really good way of making sure that I'm revising everything! I also make mind maps, flashcards and quizzes and I do past papers throughout (2012 to 2015 as well as the specimen papers). It's worked so far - feeling a bit worried about physics though! :s-smilie:

What are you doing for revision for science?
