Ohh SAT's shivers... Coming up.. :'(
Well actually you do have to worry about them a bit, well maths mostly because of the 3 papers. For example in your shcool there are 6 sets, set 1 being full of clever people set, 6 being full of dumb people. If you are in set 3 and for GCSE maths set 3 do intermediate and set 4 do foundation this means you can only get a D in GCSE. So if you are in set 3 when doing SAT's and don't do well and get moved down this means you can't get a C or above and most college course require you to get a C in and above in GCSE maths. Also in English and Science it helps if you do well in GCSE to get on higher paper.Quote:

Don't worry about SATS
If you do rubbish, the worst thing that will happen is you'll go down a set, and besides, a month later, everyone will already have forgotten about what they got!
I did my sats last year, they were really easy except from the science paper, that was a bit tricky =]

You do need to worry because it helps to decide what GCSE paper you do.Quote:
