Mock GCSEs on Monday.

[PaulMacC]

Any tips, going to revise whole day tomarrow on maths & english which I got on Monday.
Someone said I should chew gum while revising and doing the exam itself as it reminds your mind or something.
Im a bit nervous incase I mess up.

It's just mocks, it doesn't matter if you mess up so stop getting so stressed :P

[PaulMacC]

But if I do rly bad they will move to lower tier in some subjects

[J0SH]

Na I don't think they can do that as mocks are just to get you used to the actual exams in a matter of months, and to see where you stand and what you can achieve, but try not to get too stressed and study lots :P

Depends how clever you are naturally, juist remember to read the question properly and twice.
Tbh if you do real badly, just talk to your teacher about study support.

Lucky sod, mine are next week too.

Don't worry too much about them :) Don't stress out and revise truckloads!!

[Melsia]

Mine are the two weeks before christmas! >=[

Great way to build up to christmas, all the other classes are dossing and watching films, but we get mock GCSE's.

The teachers put way too much stress on people about it... they don't count towards anything, but if you revise like crazy for them you won't have to revise as much before the actual exams because it'll mostly be in there ;]

[Shoovers]

We got told to listen to a song when revising and if you get a question like that, think of the song and it might come back into your head
