Can I ask - does anyone think I should sit Maths early (in Year 10) if I can consistently get a 9 on past papers?

i think it depends how you perform under pressure and time conditions. If you think it'll help you to focus on your other subjects in yr11 I would, but also if you get stressed by exams it might make you super stressed this year. Also keep in mind in year 11 you have study leave for your exams but you'd have to fit revision around your lessons in year 10 (I think? We don't do early sitting of exams in my school) maybe see how your mocks go first? Hope this helps x

Rs is so good. Our school starts it in Y9 with two ethical topics, but I'm doing the religious part now in Y10 with Hinduism and Christianity

My school did Sikhism in y9, Christianity in y10 and ethics in y11. All of it was interesting, but my teacher somehow managed to make it incredibly boring.
Hii js started Year 10 this year! My favourite subject is probably maths or English lit. I picked drama, spanish and geography. My school also makes us do IT or computer science as an additional one. I listen to a lot of different music but I rlly like Cavetown. My favourite food is probably macaroni :smile:
