I did DT and German GCSE (AQA). DT is a LOT of work to get the course work done, but it was 60% of my grade so I completely flunked the actual exam and still got an A*; I really enjoyed it and now I’m very capable of sticking to deadlines and taking on large volumes of work during a levels and EPQ. German is okay I enjoyed it, but personally it didn’t actually teach me any useful skills at all I just enjoyed doing it. Hope this helps a bit xx
