Failed/Past - Exams

I passed, yay year 10 exam, I think it means nothing but some teachers say it goes for collage applications...

but...

I just passed... I am well chuffed lol cuz I fail @ some subjects that are important but it is upto me to improve tbh:


When I mean fail, I mean fail badly lol... anyways for maths only like 2-5 people passed in our class as the teacher doesn't really do a good job @ teaching, various students have complained to the head of maths
(also our head of our year) I was thinking to offer to move down a group but then thought I may find it too easy... and that group just messes around I think. Grr I am always stupid when I put the answers down lol... sum lame answers I wrote but I suppose I am in the learning process.

My questions are:

• Does the results from May and June exams go to collage applications?
• Did you find year 10 german exam easy/hard? I found it hard tbh.
• Are these exams pointless/do they mean anything?
• Shall I move down a group where may mess around and I don't know if the teacher is really good?

GCSEs (Year 10 - Year 11 exams) decide your whole life!

that quote is wrong i decides a part of your life not your whole life there is plenty of opportunities you life does not depend on gcse's

You get crap GCSEs, you won't get into a good Uni or get a good job.

Dudes, he's not talking about GCSE's.
He's talking end of year 10 exams.
I found them pointless, but if you're in bad groups for most subjects you should try hard so that for the next year (which is very important), you're in the best group that you can be in.

I found year 10 exams mostly easy. English and History I failed (and am doing so again this year), but that's due to my awful speed at writing. :( :P
It's good for exam practice though.

But year 10 exams have nothing to do with college applications, lol.
Well, they kind of help you in their interviews. Some places do look at your year 11 mocks and then year 10 end of years. But I found that they looked at my yr 11 mocks and predicted grades for me.

No @ da last one. obv.

+rep thanks for great long reply :)

If planning to return, I don't really like rep so you know lol...

oh so it is the mocks they do :O

YAY i hope so lol, our teachers say year 10 but must be mocks in december year 11...

Also I think I will fail:

English and science

I have failed:

Maths - So has most of class tbh, second highest set, teacher as said before

Dt food - dunno how I did tbh, wasn't even hard just I wasn't very detailed

Bcs - I ain't exactly rubbish @ computers but gosh I have actually learnt since then tbh... just yet again stupid answers I put down

The rumour on the grapevine is that if you're genuinely ill during your GCSEs to the point that you can't take them, the internal year 10 exam results can be used to estimate your grade and you'll still get a GCSE. So in that respect, they do matter.

I swear they only look at yr 11 mocks?

Year 10 exams, if not mock or anything, mean crap all.
