Who else is worried about their exams? Well, I guess that's pretty much every 15/16 year old around. Anyhoo, how are you all coping with the pressure? Revising whenever you can or taking it easy?
I know I'm smart enought to pass the ones that I want. Maths is a dead loss though ;0
Its just this annoying fear of failure crap!

Then, after you finally perfect it, they tell you that you can use a period instead of an x to signofy multiplication.
Damn them.

I never got any A's at GCSE's.
I got 5 C's, 5 D's and 1 E.
Probably because I never revised and took no interest in school.
I've improved as a student now mind, I think having two years at college has matured me as a student.

GCSE's suck.
I did mine, went to college and found the exams there easier.
A levels are the future kiddies.

Yeah you really dont need to worry about GCSE'S, if you are planing on going to college or 6th form then your obviously up to it. I know people that have gone on to take A levels with less than a C in maths, ortho C's in maths and english are needid to go to Uni.
I just revised little, but made sure i got C's, i got a B in english which i did'nt expect but was welcome. Just balance your load, and if you feel you might fail some say for example a language or art, then just forget about um, just focus on the important ones and try to get 5 C's. I thought i was gonna fail Humantites (mix of history geog and re) so i did'nt revise, did crap on the test totaly blaged my way through, got a C.
Remember every one in the country takes these tests, if your family has never been on Trisha, then you are most likely gonna do well.

They give you all this rubbish about how if you don't do well in your GCSEs then you can't really goto college, but it's wrong.
Besides, if you really do that badly you can just retake them in the first year, or whatever it is.
They're easier than you think at the time though. You'll do fine.

I have my GCSEs in two months-ish. But all this revision I'm meant to be doing, it's physically impossible. I've been doing coursework non-stop since September and they all expect me to revise? But yeah, i got 5 A-C's in my mocks and i only need 4 to get into College
Marcini's Law requests that GCSE's be renamed initial initiation of congression.
Hmm... I never get worried about exams or results. It just doesn't bother me.
Just do what revision you're comfortable with and you should get decent grades without stressing yourself.

My maths teacher was ill for most of year 8 so we had Mr. Patel. He was the greatest teacher ever, he had an extremely strong Indian accent and he had a dislike for calculators; "Mr. Patel and calculators do not get on". From that quote you can see that he spoke about himself in the third person. Also, we spent a whole lesson practicing making our 'x' (the letter) not look like a multiplication symbol.
