How are your GCSE’s going?

Hey guys,
As a uni student now, I remember how nerve wracking GCSE’s were!
How did you all find them?
What are you wanting to do with the GCSE’s you do get?

Hey @hanstudies
I absolutely loved English lit at a level. It’s a lot of quotes though! Nice one for putting the work in, it’s gonna pay off 100%. And wow law!? Where are you thinking of going?

it's on and off for me. i'm actually resitting my gcse exams as i didn't end up passing english, maths and biology in 2022. so far, i think it's been going okay? i don't feel so good about maths as i find it really hard though. i'm hoping to go back to my old school and do triple health and social care (which equals to 3 alevels basically) :smile:

Hi @ilovejeongin143
I really struggled with Maths too! Numbers are a struggle for me. Hope it goes well, glad you’re finding it ok so far! 3 a levels would be amazing to leave with and it’s a really good target to push your self to do.

good luck
