Try to learn as much vocab as possible for German. I used to get Ds in French and now I'm aiming for a high A because I've learnt all the vocab and my coursework have improved.

What is your writing/speaking (coursework) grades like?
All the best! :biggrin:

I don't really know. I have a cambridge gcse textbook and I just stare at pages of vocab. Any ideas?

Well we don't do writing coursework and my speaking coursework isn't that great because only 1/3 of it is coursework… but I can get them to B/A level

Im doing french and just realised even though my 4 courseworks are A*/ full marks, i will still only go into the exam with a solid D. Eurgh. Anyway what are you using to revise German?? Use the 'memrise' site and i suggest you also watch German youtubers! It helps you pick up words really fast and get used to how fast they speak!
http://www.memrise.com/ use this site! Sign up and go to 'courses' and search your exam board & 'German GCSE' and they should have the vocab for your spec - it's great as it gives different ways of learning & it's much better than just staring at a textbook

How is everyone revising for RS and history too
For history I'm very very slowly making cue cards for each event
RS I'm making notes on each page in the revision guide then answering the questions at the bottom
