Im not trying to sound mean, but never say you can't revise due to an injury. You can, but inside you're using the injury as an excuse. Never let laziness beat you.
If its a genuine injury, I'm sorry, but this is from experience and I wouldn't want it to happen to you

It's her hand, so she can't write :redface:

Have you ever tried writing more than a word with your left hand if you're right handed? :lol:

Linear or modular? Are you doing 2 or 3 exams at the end of year 11? In short, Edexcel A or Edexcel B?


Linear, 2 exams in June.

That's good :smile:. So, you are doing Mathematics A (Linear) this year. I can always help you :smile:, I'm taking it in Year 10, so this June, the same time as you. Furthermore, I'm just wondering, what are your strongest & weakest subjects in GCSE Maths. Also, what is your target & current grade in GCSE Maths?

Sunday update:

Not really been able to revise or so much this week due to a wrist injury. But i had a friend round and she wrote down some of the answers on a maths paper for me. (I was not going to waste the time i had with my best friend who i hadn't seen in ages doing a maths paper lol)

Hopefully my arm/hand will be better this week and i'll be able to do stuff more.

How are you allowed to take your GCSE maths in year 10. I was going to, but I was allowed because apparently its been changed and you can't because some people do it and get it an A when they could achieve an A* if they did it in yr 11. I was able to get an A* in yr 10 but it was a mock and not the actual exam because we weren't allowed.

Well, it's a similar case with me. The reason why schools are not permitting students to take GCSE Maths in Year 10 is because everything is linear now. You take all exams at the end of year 11, and therefore if you get a grade A in Year 10, you cannot re-take it in Year 11 to get a higher grade. Re-takes will be allowed after Year 11 as normal even if you take it early. This is why people are not allowed to take GCSE Maths early. However, I had to do a mock and if I got 75+% in it, I'd be entered for early GCSE Maths & I got 81% and therefore got to do it early. I'm aiming to get A* but 90%+ and will be aiming to get it by my April Mocks in a non-calculator test :smile:. If you really prove to the school you can get A* in Year 10 they'll allow you to do it. I had to request the teacher, they don't come to you, you have to go to them!

I did ask my teacher but they still said they're not allowed to let us take it early. I managed to get 192/200 in my mock exam in yr 10 but I wasn't allowed to take it early. I have to do it this yr, but I know I would have been able to get an A* in yr 10 with enough practice.
