do past papers and see the mark scheme with every paper you do. if you get a question wrong or you miss a point which gives you mark in the mark scheme; make flashcards for those questions.

Hi @aishaniroy

If you have not already, I would reccomend making a revision timetable from now until your final exams. This will help you to ensure that you revise every subject. You could also plan when you are going to revise each topic to ensure that you cover them all. Make sure to also plan some time to relax and do the things that you enjoy.

After you complete any mocks or practice exams make sure to carefully go through it to identify the areas that you need to work on. Also, take some time to look at mark schemes to get an understanding of what you need to include in your answers.

Hope that helps!

I am in my last 3 days of mocks and I have been doing past papers. Compared to the year 10 exams I think I am going to get better grades.

Hi! These predicted grades are really good, and show that you're on track to get super grades in your GCSEs. I just wanted to reassure you though that you don't need all 9s to get a Cambridge offer! I got seven 9s, one 8, and a 7 in my GCSEs and have got an offer to study at Cambridge this year! So don't stress - GCSE grades are only a small part of a much bigger picture in the application process. Good luck in your exams!

Definitely do past paper questions and look at model answers. If it helps at all/ if you are interested, I got a 9 in Classics and am selling my notes on Stuvia so you can have a look at those if to see if that might help but depends on what topics you do
