year 10 mocks
hi
so i'm a bit worried about my mock results, we've literally just finished core exams and i've got the first results back, which were for maths paper 1 and paper 2 (calculator and non calculator). we've not got paper 3 back yet, which is another calculator paper.
i've done shockingly awful. like im meant to be a grade 9 student and these results are really, really bad. i barely scraped half marks on paper 2. i got 53/100 and 81/100.
i get that its not uncommon for people do bad in year 10 mocks, and they're meant to be a wake up call or whatever to get your act together and start properly revising, but its not even like i didnt try; i did loads of revision, but evidently not enough.
basically what im saying is; is it ok for me to do so badly this time? is it possible for me to get a 9 in my actual gcses?

It's 100% possible for you to get a 9 if you work for it. My friend is extremely smart and I remember during the yeat 10 mocks, she got a grade 2 in her English Language paper. Even I was shocked. She ended up with a grade 9 in the end. You're only in year 10, please don't stress yourself out over this. You can achieve that grade 9. You have under a year. That's plenty of time. Good luck 
please dont stress at all! this was your first experience with exams, and just see it as practice!
if it makes you feel better i got a 7- in my maths exam in year 10 mocks, and then walked out with a 9 in gcse further maths, everything is possible, you dont even need to do work over summer, just make sure to focus when you start school in year 11!
