Depends on what subjects you are good at. You should know what you need to revise extra hard and what you will be ok on with a bit of revision. Use your common sense.

If you remember that the mock mean so little that they are pointless then they will seem so easy as to be boring.

In my mocks I got like E's and D's, in my real exams I got mainly C's.
I got 12% on my mock intermediate GCSE maths exam, I was in set 2 and I got one of the highest marks!

The mocks are exactly what you should expect in your final GCSEs, as they were once real exam papers. If you find them hard, then you know how much/little you need to revise.

I would say it's worth revising if you are a conscientious person, since if you get bad marks you'll probably feel really worried about it. The hardest tests will of course depend on what you are good at, but it will often also depend on the teaching style in each subject. For example, my economics and IT papers seem to have been marked pretty fairly, to give us a realistic idea of where we stand, whereas many people doing French got 0/90 in some sections of their mock because the teachers are trying to scare us into working hard.

looking back now i would say they were easy but at the time i probably thought they were hard. I don't think i did very much revision though. At the time i though if i did well doing no work then it would give me confidence and stop me panicking when i actually did some work. I also thought that if i did badly it would give me a good kick up the backside and make me work harder.
IN the end i think i did well but it jsut made me too cocky so i only really revised for science, languages and history for my proper GCSE's

I did very little revision for my mocks and so far the grades I've had have been pretty good. A* in Maths, Physics and RS with very little revision. The only one I was disappointed on was History where I got a B with no revision.

GCSEs are hard for me as I'm forced to take a load of subjects that I'm crap at.

Often people get higher marks in their actual GCSEs than in their mocks.

I got worried after getting a B in my ICT mock exam but managed A* in the real exam. The coursework dragged me down to A though.

thats no exaggeration - most people dramatically improved, others just did better.
