Edexcel GCSE Music Component 3 - Monday, June 16, 2025 [Exam Chat]

Has anybody got predictions for the 12 marker question PLEASEEE!!!

Does anyone have the 2024 paper? Would love to practice it

I have the essay question + audio if thats any use?

If anyone has good revision strategies for music pls share cos idk what to do

if this helps, I've basically just been making mindmaps for each set work (w stuff like instrumentation, melody, rhythm, texture, tonality and harmony), and then covering key words w a post it note that asks something along the lines of 'what's the tonality of...?' Also, kinda basic - but honestly just doing flashcards has been pretty useful. you could make flashcards for key concepts in each set work or for more basic music terminology like 'diatonic' or 'syllabic', depending on what you struggle with more (concepts or key words). I've also been told by some people that have alrdy done the gcse to annotate a blank copy of the score, then add any bits that you forgot in another colour. Obviously that's quite time consuming so really up to you. hope it goes well!!

My music teacher 😭

how did we find it

What did people get for dictation. I guessed melody, I put high F, C, C, C, B. And then for rhythm i put: minim crotchet minim quaver quaver.

i got same for rhythm but slightly different for melody but if im honest im not good at the melody dictation so your probably right i think i got CBCAG
