I know someone who goes and they are doing similar subjects to you. They got around similiar gsce grades you. Focus on getting an APS above 8.5. 9s in maths and physics . You should be fine if u start preparing for gsces early. (November yr11 is probably a good place to start revising)

You have plenty of time. Remember, understanding past papers and the mark scheme is key. Ask your teachers (who are also examiners) to mark past papers. Do small consistent studying rather than leaving it to the last minute (like April). I'd suggest starting November. For the first month or 2 of yr11 you can relax. Remember memorisation of mark scheme is key for Physics,Chemistry and Biology.
