my school started the gcse course in year 9, so we had mocks at the end of the year, and all I can say is that my grades were NAWT what I was hoping 😞. I understand it's still really early, but I want to do as well as possible in my exams (hoping for all 8s and 9s) and so, this year, I'm going to start putting more effort into my academics, and I guess this is just me journalling it!
last years mock results:
- AQA Sociology - 92% - grade 8 equiv
- AQA History - 50% - grade 5 equiv
- AQA Biology - 70% - grade 6+ equiv
- AQA Physics - 68% - grade 6+ equiv
- AQA Chemistry - 60% - grade 6 equiv
- AQA Religious - 79% - grade 6 equiv
- Edexcel French - 95% - grade 6 equiv
- Edexcel Eng Lang - ? - grade 6- equiv.
- Edexcel Eng Lit - 85% - grade 8+ equiv.
- Edexcel Maths - 75% - grade 7 equiv
I have mocks in March/April, so I'm going to begin revising for them soon, but I have other mini tests, and they're going well so far - i got my first ever History 'write an account' that was over 4/8, so I'm really happy.
I also got 11/12 on a Sociology 12 marker, 5/5 on a RS 5 marker, 70% in a physics test, 81 then 83% on two biology tests, and one mark off of full marks on a maths test (98%), and so I feel like the academic comeback is definitely possible!
I'll update after this week's tests which are
a History 8 marker
another History 8 marker
a chem test
a History 4 marker
two Sociology 4 markers
wish me luck 🤞 💗
