Anyone in britian will know what these are.

I just got my time table for the exams this summer and i am in shock to be very honest. My attendance at school is 42% due to exclusions and being ill at the end of november start of december, my grades are very good in some subjects and in other very bad.

I have been entered for 3 higher papers, media which i will pass with easy i know i got A's in the mock paper on that, PE which i should pass and EP, now for a kid that does not believe in god or have any time for stuff like that it has knocked me back abit even more so having told the teacher i would rather do the normal paper.

Math,English,drama and Business stuides im doing normal papers in and should be okay. But i didnt get entered for my science exam because the teacher kicked me out her leason due to my 'poor' effort even though i was getting C's. Oh well i will still get 5+s GCSE so im course for a Okay life.

Any tips for what to do in exams and before them because im not the type of person that likes to sit still for a hour or more.

Don't sweat it. GCSEs are pretty simple - just turn up, do 'em, and leave. A bit of revision will guarantee top marks, I did none, and got As and Bs across the board when I did them several years ago.

Yeah, if youre one of those annoying people that doesnt have to cram the information into your head, then thats fine.

But please DO do some revision. Its the only way, It sucks and feels like such a waste of time, but its worth it.

If you cant sit still for longer than an hour, either revise in hour blocks or invent your own revision method - thats what I did.

Some how i think gigglypuffs idea is better.

I dont need everything just alot lol

Gigglypuff · 03-14-2007, 03:54 PM

Then invent a method that works for you.

I couldnt sit still in silence either - so I did the opposite. Music on full blast, notes in hand, walking or dancing around the room, best method of revision ever

Also, drink red bull - stimulates the mind

Red bull gives you wings! God you would have thought the adverts give it away.

As a Secondary School teacher this comment makes me laugh so much.Effort and Attainment are 2 different things.

Bottom line if your attendence is only 42% then you're fucked unless you revise like an SOB. You'll have missed so much work it'll be unbelivable.

5+ GCSE mean shit, youneed 5+ GCSE at A-C thats what you need to work for. If you take History I can help you out if you want anything else you need to work hard.

Yeah well mine are rapidly approaching too and I know for a fact that I need 5 A*-C grades to get into college, which I have been accepted into already but depending on what grades I get I will either be there 2 or 3 years....

Luke-E · 03-14-2007, 04:57 PM

Even though i am out that much believe it or not the whole time i am out i work my ass off at home unlike the normal wanker that gets kicked out and sit at home and plays his PS2 or X-box.

Even thought from that quote it may not seem like it i do want a good life and i am not gonna be a bin man as you teachers like to put it :p

And thanks for the offer on the history i might take you up on that near the time of that exam.

Luke-E · 03-14-2007, 04:59 PM

Have you got your time table for them yet dmac?
