The Current Year 11 Thread Mark I (2016-2017)

Yep for English Language and Maths

Hey who's doing An Inspector Calls, Macbeth, and Dr Jeckyll and Mr Hyde and the power and conflict anthology for English?

Thanks I was 4th in my year group so pretty high but could have been better.
I'm gonna be hated but I do almost no maths in a week.
Typically I have:
4 hours in class doing revision stuff (of which up to 2 may be messing around doing nothing or talking about irrelevant things lol)
2-3 lunch times which are mostly messing around with occasional work mixed in
1 hour in class doing the FSMQ Additional Maths (which includes a fair amount of GCSE work in so some of which is revision
That now sounds like quite a lot lol. But basically I do next to nothing outside class which probably wasn't what you wanted to hear but it's the truth! I'm just one of those irritating people who "get" maths and need to do very little work to maintain my grade. English on the other hand...

No clue on that one sorry. No one at my school did that but that doesn't necessarily mean you can't. The safest option would definitely be to do it individually though

That's what I'm going to do. I'm too much of a worrier to risk it so I'm doing it independently! I'm incredibly worried about it but took the initiative and asked my teacher if I can be one of the first people and do it tomorrow, because I just want to get it out of the way. Do you have any advice?

Hi,
does anyone know if the AQA English Language Speaking presentation can be done in pairs, or if it has to be done individually?

I wouldn't call you irritating. By the way, are we doing the same specimen paper? I know edexcel has more than 1 specimen set.
Mine is: Pearson Edexcel Level 1/ Level 2 GCSE (9-1) in Mathematics. If you have your paper, check if question 3 on paper 1 (specimen paper set 2) is :
David has designed a game.
He uses a fair 6-sided dice and a fair 5-sided spinner.
The dice is numbered 1 to 6...
*I can't be asked to write the whole question*

His ebooks are good and it contains more information, I can share them with you if you want.

Are you allowed to just do it only infront of the teacher or in a small group than class group

Ideally, I should finish the specification around April, then from there it should be purely past papers and revison. Though I'm only taking Physics and Biology, I did Chemistry last year. If you think you don't have enough time, then try mygcsescience, I purchased it on Saturday and so far it's been helpful. If you can't buy the subscription then try a GCSE science YouTube channel, I've heard 'freesciencelessons' is good. Bear in mind both theses sources follow the AQA specification.

How is everyone revising for science? I'm quite confused as to whether I should make notes or flashcards?
