I am trying to aim for grade 8/9, I am quite stressed because I am self studying for this and I have not learnt all the topics yet.. I only have under 1 month left to learn everything and revise too! This thread is definitely useful though, I bookmarked it, thank you!

Hey how did u revise and wat resources did you use
I want a 6 or 7 in Maths GCSE as I am on higher. This shouldn’t be impossible as you only need 45%. That is good because I struggle with geometry.
Ok so I didn’t make any notes because personally I think it’s a waste of time for maths, even at a level. Just do as many questions in your text book as possible and if you look at a question and don’t see the answer straight away do it.

Just popping in to let you guys know that there's a predicted paper 1 available to try here

Of course it's all guesswork but it's still worth a try!
