GCSE SCIENCE THREAD! I decided it was best to create one of these threads as we are ever closer to starting our exams!
Ok a recap of our exams
So we have 9 written exams,three for Chemistry,three for physics and three for biology.
Here is the specification for Chemistry, Biology and Physics
Important Dates Chemistry C3: 15th June 2016 (PM)
Physics P3: 17th June 2016 (AM)
This threadHere you can ask any questions, whether it is about the exams, or the content...I would be happy to help!
We can also post any predictions on what we think will come up in the exams!

I received the times of the exams that I have and there is a 30 min break between the end of P2 and start of P3, is this a mistake or is there a break in between?

I got 44 in Physics ISA, 45 in Biology ISA and 47 in Chemistry ISA (hoping that is around 98 UMS).

Well, really it's up to you!
For me, I find C2 easier than C3, P3 easier than P2 and B2 and B3 both the same!
But, hopefully we would have a toilet break of some sorts between exams

If the country does badly, it might be 44 for an A*
And the ISA is worth 25% of the final grade

I find unit 3 easier for physics and chemistry. Biology 2 and 3 the same like you
Haha do you have any predictions?

Honestly, the only exam I'm afraid of is the B3 exam, but that's only because we've been taught it quite quickly, and it may have been rushed.
