I've only got 3 exams left now. History Paper 2 (sources!!!), Physics Module 3 and a Physics 1a module resit.
 
I go to Dayncourt School
I think we do the same Exams

Yeh we will do seeing as your only just down the road. How'd you find the Chemistry? I thought it was solid, higher that is. The Emperical Formular was impossible, I had no idea how to do it!

I was doing btec science so I haven't got any science Exams:happy
All I had was English, Maths, Art and Leisure and Tourism
 
Nah, Additional Maths was simple.
:eek: How many lessons did you do it a week?

It was horrific, question to do with probability that I think went ok, but that was only worth 4 marks, the rest was awful, all 10 or so people that did it said a similar thing.

Not actually gonna look at the sheet the result comes on as I know I won't have managed 30 marks.

4 left for me now, Geography and History, on Wednesday and Thursday. Then, applied science on a week on Tuesday, then Statistics the day after.

Lol, simple was an overstatement, but I think I got between 70-80%. We did it for approximately half of the Maths lessons of year 10 and year 11. The other lessons were for the GCSE.

As 70% is an A, you're clearly very talented at maths. I could do a large number of the questions, but two or three were impossible. We've been studying all year for this, as I got my GCSE last year.

Maths is my best subject and we have a very good teacher. A lot of the stuff is quite simple if you are taught the correct method.

I agree to an extent, but my main problem is understanding the question. I found last year's paper (which I did alone without any help in the correct time) to be far easier than this year's, just because I could understand all the questions. When I have made that initial leap, I can do the actual method more often than not.
 
Last year's paper was a lot easier though, the A grade for that paper was around 78%.
 
One lesson a week for us unfortunately since October.

Yeah, we went through last year's as practice, and it did seem easier than this years. More marks for probability, which I was confident on:p.
 
4 Exams left get in! GCSEs are alot easier than i expected.
