Well the one 9 marker I just didn’t do urghhh and isk y coz after the exam everyone said wat they wrote and I was like shhhhhhh*tttttt

Also English lit for the poetry question from the cluster (Power and Conflict).... I didn’t revise that poem! Urgh but I used wat I could remember which ended up to be one paragraph so

I'm sure everyone has regrets from some of their exams, if you need to resit that is an available option. If you don't then well done, depending on what you go on to do next these GCSEs won't have a big impact on your life. :nah:

I didn't finish Business Studies Paper 1 on time, and I had to rush my answer (though still, I couldn't manage finishing lol). For both of the English Language papers I think I spent too much time on Q4 rather than Q5, the creative writing.

I also sometimes worry if the examiner can't read my handwriting because I forget to dot my i's so it can look like a different letter.

Not for me
Omg u k wat I think I passed everything like....

As long as you get the grades for your chosen subjects in A level youre fine.. I ended up getting a bunch of problems during GCSES and I luckily got what I needed to get in. I don't really regret anything because A levels are the only thing that matter to get into uni,

Id always really liked both up until the end of year 9. I did consider doing both for gcse, but i decided against 2 languages, and i had other options i wanted to pick. So i picked french. Although id enjoyed it before, i think the teacher spoiled it for me. He was a good teacher (i think he was also one of the deputy heads or something similar). But he came up with un-funny jokes etc etc. I preferred the teachers id had before.
