Almost everyone I know did better than their mocks in their actual GCSE exams. Instead of worrying that you may do badly in your GCSEs, maybe try and take this as a wake-up call and maybe revise in a different way? I got all 8s and 9s in my GCSEs and my favourite things to use were practice papers and seneca learning (completely free).

also sometimes the school purposefully makes the grade boundaries higher to give you a better chance in the final exam. they usually say that for gcses, you get usually 1-2 grades higher in the real thing
