year 11 mocks

my mocks start tomorrow for two weeks... a little nervous tbh. I think I know the content I just have negative confidence. having an older straight A-A* brother doesnt help, any advice?

I don't know how helpful this is, but try to avoid people who outwardly stress out before exams or speculate what will be on the test as this won't help your nerves. Also, afterwards, try not to compare or talk to anyone about what each of you said in the test.

Sorry, that probably isn't very helpful. Good luck though!! :smile:

it was! thanks :smile:

I'll just walk away afterwards and get it out of my mind, after all once you've handed in the paper what can you change?!

you still have a long time, Don't worry! most people start to revise 2-3 weeks before. just make a revision timetable working backwards from the exam and you have no reason to stress! x

most people go up at least one grade from now to the actual exams, so you could get 6s! not bad at all

i have mine starting in 4 days. i have 3 older brothers who are outstanding in their studies and have never gotten anything below an A and I'm struggling to get A/B. i can totally relate to you but i don't let my brother's achievements get to me. I'm happy for them and their hard work but i need to focus on my own achievements. all you can do so close to an exam is practice through pass papers and test you self realistically. i wish you the best of luck on all your exams :smile:
