Northen Ireland GCSE's

Is the GCSE's the same in Northern Ireland as in England? Im in year 10 in Northern Ireland, im 14 so i dont know what that would be in England...
I gonna be doin Music, Drama, History, Double Award Science (I was gonna do double award applied scince - which is more practical, but appartently double award normal science is harder, so im gonna give it a wee go.)
I kinda worried about doing music, i love music sooo much but i think it will be hard.
Also i have been thinkin bout goin in2 teaching when im older. I told my vice princible this n she thought i was a bit mad because i pick History with Drama and Music, but Im still confused on what I should do.
So ne1 who is lives in NI and is in Yr 10 / 3rd Yr / Form 3 or whateva ur skool calls it, and is starting there GCSE's nxt yr, share your thoughts in here!! :smile:

Most exams are slightly different from the english ones...because they're on a different exam board, but it depends on your school, as I know some schools do take the english boards. But I would think the courses would be broadly similar overall, with only small differences to make everyboyd even.

I didn't do music...but from friends who did as long as you have a talent for music it's not too hard.
