im worried about ma sats

[shenk.]

SATs are there for the teachers examination.

If you get stupidly low SATs results the worst that can happen is your teacher will get sacked and maybe (Though rarely) you will be moved down a set next year.

Don't worrie about them - or GCSEs - I didn't revise for ether and got mostly As and Bs ;]

BUT i would advise you to revise for GCSEs. SATs i would say it's not worth it. ;]

[DarkScream]

Dont worry, Be happy, concentrate.

[Jesus-Egg]

I'm confused :s Why are people advising her to not to revise?

ok, they're not very important exams, and it is possible to do ok without revising, but i strongly advise that you do revise. You've got GCSEs, and possibly A Levels coming up, and you need to start getting used to revising, and finding the revision methods that work well for you.

Revision DOES work, as long as you can discover the best way of revising for you.

im gonna revise and learn more because if i revise more now ill remember the stuff by year 11 and ill know more and it'll show if i need to be moved up/down so what class fits me best and its a practise really for gcse sorta so it gets me started on the revision.
im gonna do 6form u do a levels in that right?

[FlyingJesus]

Yeah A levels at 6th form (or other college). Revision just isn't my thing, but I understand it works for other people.

kai
i just done a lil test i found on a site and i done those fractyion things
like inproper fractions and factors n stuff and i got all 10qs rong i hate those qs ;[
whats a factor again

[alexxxxx]

Revision doesn't work for me. But at our school they do mean something. The whole of the sets were worked out on SATs and CATs tests.

[FlyingJesus]

You were talking about fractions then asked about factors, so I'll answer both.

Fractions are the like 1/4 stuff, and I think improper fractions are where you get a higher top number like 5/4, in which case it should be 1 and 1/4. However I might be wrong, they might be fractions that are impossible to work out. One of those I'm sure

Factors are what can be multiplied together to make a number. For example, take the number 12. Factors of 12 are:

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
