I've not particularly started preparing especially for the final exams, as all my school seem to be doing is mocks right now. I'm supposed to be revising for my German CA but instead I'm procrastinating.
I have a ridiculous amount of coursework left to do as well so revision is taking a back seat right now, which isn't a great place to be in.
Good luck to every one with their revision and GCSEs.

I have 13 exams this year (I already did 4 GCSEs last year).
I was supposed to start revising from last week but I had a very important interview day at a private sixth form and was literally preparing for it all week. So my revision has been lacking because of it, but I am hoping to catch up this week.
I now have 9 weeks until my first GCSE and have planned what I am going to do each day as part of revision.
I only have 1 CA left to complete and must hand it in in 2 weeks, all the rest have been done.
I am very nervous in terms of exams and results as I am aiming this year for 1*, 4As and 1B. so in total, aiming for 4A*s, 4As and 2Bs in total for my GCSEs.
I must get these grades to get into my chosen private sixth form (if I am offered a place that is).

I had 27 last year but it kept me focused, and although, it was stressful, I just had to keep my sugar levels high and plough through

For English Language, I tend to use mrbruff on YouTube, he is very helpful and I am planning to do past papers in order to increase my speed as my time management for the test is poor.
It doesn't matter if you haven't revise yet. I suggest spending this month writing all your notes for necessary subjects so when it comes closer to the exam, you should be using your written notes to revise, most preferably in early April.
Which subjects are you studying for?

Well, I am currently in the process of writing notes. I've finished my notes on Science - Unit 1, RE, Unit 3, and History - Germany Depth Study. Hopefully, I would have finished all my major notes towards the end of March. However, I am going to start revising History tomorrow morning. For subjects, like German, I using websites such as memrise to learn lots of vocab and for Maths, I mostly spending my revision towards past papers filling gaps in my knowledge so I can hopefully achieve an A* in that subject.

Im doing AQA too. My CA is at an A*. In my mock, I got an A* in my English Language paper however we done another exam on Friday, and it knocked my confidence down. I'll be surprised if I got over a C.

maybe friday was a one off and your mind just wasnt cooperating with a bit of revision im definitely sure you can get an a* you only need a good a in exam to get a* overall if ca is a*
