I actually found my GCSE's a whole lot more stressfull than my degree. if you don't get good gcse's its hard to resit them and there's a lot of pressure with A-levels for getting into uni. Bu now i'm here and i've had a chance to get proper jobs in the holidays its made me realise that having a degree isn't the be all and end all of my future i can still get a job a house and have a future without my degree.

I sypathise with all those taking their gcse's i hated having to revise for ten unrelated subjects simultaniously. good luck to all of you.

Well in this set thats now 3 down with 12 left, not including the french and german orals before Easter and my maths which I took in November.

I'm happy.

I found GCSE's to be fairly un-stressful, except for maths. Mind you uni hasn't been particularly stressful so far (apart from the maths...), and a-levels weren't much more stressful than my GCSE's. But then I don't really get stressed.

I haven't had any stress with exams up until now because they are what count. As my tutor told me, a 2.2 from oxford counts for sh*t. Have never really revised before, the exams should be a laugh.

If anyone does need help with chemistry drop me an e-mail, I'm quite good at explaining stuff.

Hey revise in front of the Computer and browse MBUK for 2 hours instead works for me PS i'm in top set not bottem so revision does matter

miggillicuddy · May 2007

GCSEs? If they're anything like Scottish standard grades, you shouldn't be worrying.

Highers properly suck the big one. It's worse when all the revision you've put in appears not to pay off *cough* maths/english[V]

To have 18 exams you either must have taken loads of subjects, or you are resitting modules that should have been done last year, or you just didn't do them last year because either your school sucks and didn't let you or you decided not too.

In the last year of my GCSEs I had, probably about 10-11 exams. I did 10 subjects, or it may have been eleven, I can't remeber, but 18 does seem a hell of alot.

I just can't revise, I don't have the will power to just sit down and revise, I always get distracted or get annoyed because I want to do something else, like bike. I think I'm going to be screwed at Uni, [:D].

I have AS exams, done physics practical today and got 2 ICT exams next week, 3 hours long. Then the rest in 2 weeks.

im like you, i can hardly concentrate because i get bored easily. i had the physics today, what you think of it?

Silver Bullet · May 2007

i have 6 science exams - i'm doing higher tier triple award, 2 maths, 3 english, 2 history, 2 geography, 3 french and 2 for business
i think that adds up?

we didn't get the option to take any exams in year 10, but i chose not to do RE exam, unlike some people, which would have added an extra exam

i got bored with revision today, so i pissed about in the garden for a bit (built a mini roll in to tabletop thing) and now i'm sat in front of my laptop eatng jelly babies [;)]

Think you have pressure? Your exams are only for yourself really.
With mine at college I have to perform for the company.
I get paid for it, they pay my course fee's etc.
So I have to do well, the fact I understand it fairly well anyway removes a lot of pressure, but its still there. That and the better I do compared to the other apprentices puts me in better grounding with managment. The better I do with this year affects what course I get placed on next year, I'm hoping to do FND, not HNC.

FND= Foundation Degree, the first 2 years of a Degree Basicallyy But done part time on day release one day and an evening, another year at college after that gives me a Bsc I think.
HNC= Higher National Certificate, Below FND.

physics practical wasn't too bad. Was easier than the ones we'd practised. I think I did alright.
