The Student Room Group

Let’s all aim for grades 7-9!!

Hi, I am in Year 11 and want to achieve good grades in the GCSES as I would like to attend a Russell Group University to study Medicine or Engineering. I am predicted grade 7’s in all of my subjects and have already achieved some in my Year 10 mocks. I have Year 11 mocks in December and have been revising 2-3 each day and plan to achieve 7’s and 8’s in these exams.

Subjects I take:

Maths (Higher)
Triple Science
English Language
English Literature
Geography
Computer Science
French
RS

List your subjects and target grades and let’s motivate each other to achieve those top grades !!

Thanks

We do the same subjects except you do Computer Science as well. I'm also in year 11 and aiming for medicine.

I'm aiming for:
English Language = 8
English Literature = 8
Maths = 9
Biology = 8

Art photography - 7
Media- Distinction
Business- Distinction
Science - I'm not quite sure as to what my predicted as i was on higher but moved onto foundation and am now back on higher and obviously there's different predicted grades for that. But I am hoping to get at least a 7, and hoping to get at least a 6 in maths

Hi, if you are achieving those now in mocks, then you can smash them in the real thing ! Good luck.

Why not aim for all 9s because even if you don't get it you'll still get pretty high
My predictions on my grades(realistic)
English Language-8 hopefully got a 7 in year 10
English Literature-9 i love the subject but I am really aiming for an 8 since its unclear what a 9 is
History-9 I got 2 marks of full marks on germany and medicine mocks as long as i do that for the other two units i should be good.
Maths-Probably my hardest subject so I'm predicting a 7 i want to get and 8 but i just don't have the ability to problem solve
Chemistry- 8
Biology-8
Physics-9
R.S-Unsure hard to revise for but hopefully i will pull through and get a 7
German-9 I have german half of the family which really helps

That’s good that you have some language help man. Yeah I’m thinking minimum 7’s and I will try to aim for 9’s but it’s unclear in certain subjects like you said. Have you started revising?

I just write a load of questions in a notebook and then repeatedly test myself. Also use a few flashcards and read through CGP guides. I find explaining things to people and teaching them makes stuff stick in my head too.
