well.. practice. if i were you, i'd google "maths gcse passports", they were an AMAZING resource for me (I got a 6!! me!!!) they show you what to revise for each grade. ask your teacher for extra help, or maybe get online tuition.

Start doing the Corbett Maths 5 a day, and get yourself into a healthy study schedule. Don't waste time doing exam questions on a topic you don't understand, relearn it first before delving into questions. Also, in your exam, don't waste too much time on the last few questions, (3 min on each one max). They're only worth about ten marks in total, and you should only really worry about them if you're going for an 8 or 9, so if you look at it and you have no idea where to start, just move on. Focus on the first half of the paper mostly, checking your answers and making sure you don't have any silly mistakes. Other than that, take a deep breath, and do your best. Freaking out in the exam hall will only stress you out, making you forget everything you worked on. Good luck! :smile:
