Do I Quit Computer Science GCSE

I had no choice though. My school left all the controlled assessments that are 50 hours long plus extra to the last minute. If you're saying you did them at home then u are going against the rules and could be disqualified from the exams

should i drop computer science? I have 11 gcses at the moment, but if i drop this then i will have 10. Is this a good idea? My predicted grade is a b, but i don't believe this at all. The exam board is ocr, and all the past papers we have done, i have only ever got around 30-45%, but my teacher labels them as a c. My whole class is still on the 1st controlled assessment from year 10, and now we are supposed to juggle two at the same time. My exams are in may, i also have to learn the theory part of computer science. How can i do this? I have one week to decide.

yo cassandra its rifat how ya doin

Theory IMO doesn't have to much content. It just takes time to grab hold of the idea.

I've got the OCR computing revision guide and I do 1 page day. It takes only 20-45 minutes. So it's not even that much, I'll probably finish the revision real soon. Then just bang out exam papers.

I worked it out, I only need a solid A in my exam to get an A* overall in computing.

It's not that hard.

and btw ur average point score is made up of your best 5 subjects

Hey Rifat, I'm doing okay now. A-levels are a struggle tho, especially physics and chemistry.

AHA! A-levels, in thought u were doing gcses?

I've done my GCSEs now and I have started A-levels at a different school. I got out of computer science after some meetings and letters from my mum. I'm happy I got rid of it.

looking at this thread reminds me of myself last year lol
I got Ds and Es in all my Computing mocks and I literally had no hope.
What made it worse was that I had 4 exams on the day we had our Computing exam (real one)
Miraculously, I ended up with an A lol (i srly dont know how that happened)

But OMG that ocr txtbook was USELESS!

What did you get overall?

I got an A

wbu?

I was meant to do it but wasnt let onto the course even though I was in a higher maths set than most of the people and already know how to program in Python and Lua, although the subject I have that will match the stress of computing is Art and Im still doing my GCSEs.

Art is such a horrible subject, should"ve just kept on doing it as a hobby.

Before the christmas holidays I lost my first sketchbook and was faced with the stress of being dropped, urgh the agony but I managed to find it again plus I had to keep on trying my hardest to fill up my other two sketchbook with the possible prospect I kay have never found my first one. We came back and we've started our exam sketchbook now, and so now I have to fill up that book (Which Im doing as were going along learning my lesson from coursework) . And also have to fill up my three other coursework books so thats 4 in total to worry about.

On top of that I meed to revise for my mocks next week but cant because my paintbrush is glued to my hand. Honestly Ill be happy with a C this subject just keeps me up at night. Although Im not alone in my class. Cant wait ti drop this subject at A Levels. Should've just chosen another option with litttle coursework and just exams.

Im just hoping on results day that Theres a lot of Grade inflation and manage a C or B, for Art.

Good news is finished my CA for Physics Chemistry and Biology though.
