Hey, im going into yr11 this September and I just wanted to make a GYG too see maybe I could change my grade from 👎 to 👍!! Hopefully that will happen!! I’m not sure if I’m excited even a little bit for yr11 cause I feel so left behind I feel so scared to go into yr11 and I regret wasting my summer. I’ll be honest I did revise a bit but I got so unfocused cause that’s a bit struggle for me FOCUSING!!! I’m gonna make this as a little blog to help me out with any advice
So this will be like my little YouTube channel until the end of summer 2025 when I get back my GCSE which I really hope turns out well be 6-9s or even all 9s but I’m not that confident I will get that!! I’m not a very fast learner.. so stay tuned to what will happen for my yr11 mocks and will I get the grades I need to get into 6form …..
I really need to get amazing grades as I want to get into med as it’s a dream but let’s just say .. my grades are very bad for that… I’ll tell you then in a bit but honestly if anyone is also going in yr11 and gets better grades then me please help me out cause honestly I need it SOOO badly I regret not taking yr10 mocks not seriously.. so help me out with any advice tips on how to revise and focus!!!!!!

Business(edexcel)-4(hate it so much don’t know why I picked it)
Citizenship(edexcel)- 4

So… I got really bad don’t know how I will get my academic comeback for yr11 mocks which is in 3months so please help I’m crying for dear life!!! So English honestly I thought I did really good until I got the mocks back•••so I’ll be honest I did revise for yr10 mocks but not as much as I was supposed to and I’m so angry with myself for doing that.

hi there, thx for tagging me @halfharry :smile:
whatever you do, don't let your grades drag you down! just because you got bad grades once doesn't mean you'll get bad grades again. you can and will recover and keep a positive attitude :smile:
i would also recommend quizlet and khan academy for practice and revision.

heya!!!! welcome to the thread, don't stress about your mocks, everyone has a bad day and now you're motivated, i'm sure you'll do great in y11!!! most people have already told you this in the thread, but for all your gcses, it's just practice practice practice, hand in essays once or twice a week to your english, history, re (business and citizenship too? not sure if they have essays, i didn't do those) teachers for feedback and you can do topic by topic questions and past papers for maths and sciences from 'physics and maths tutor' or 'save my exams', start early and work hard and you'll be rewarded (do i sound too much like a greeting card 😆?)

if you find any specific questions that you're unsure about in maths and the sciences, feel free to dm me, i'll explain to the best of my ability

hey hey, what's up! this gyg feels relatable.. i'm also trying to change my grade from 👎 to 👍.. 😢

i did my AS exam this year and the best tips are to do a little every day (to not overwhelm yourself and get burnt out). ESPECIALLY your worst subjects. eat the frog, get some snacks, put some ambient music on and enjoy the ride! do a few tasks everyday and you'll establish a good routine and get yourself into a flow state in life. take off days too when you need them.

an second tip on the side is to build the most infallible, indestructable self-belief possible. it makes a difference when you go to the exam hall, stay level-headed and think 'i've done what i've done, it's come to this moment and i'm acing this'. maybe not in those words, but having the feeling you know what's coming and you know yourself, most of all, will set you up the best for your exams and for life. take a deep breath, complete the paper and know there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

sorry for this long-winded essay.. but you'll smash it 💪
