Most people get 2 English GCSEs, English Language GCSE and English Literature GCSE.

When Unis ask for an English GCSE, in nearly all cases, they require an English Language GCSE.

You should be fine I think.

Okay hopefully it should be fine :S thanks )


(main reason I'm not doing it Is that we started lit at Christmas so we've had like 5 months to do a 2/3year course...)

Well, I'm pretty sure most people do English Lang one year and English Lit another year. They're certainly not 3 year courses, and it's not really good if you do it over the 2 years (means you'll have all English exams at the same time), so it's better to do the GCSE over a single year. I did this, and I'm pretty sure most schools in the country do this.

Ah ok not 3 years then

But still,5 months. It's ridiculous, especially when you have 17 exams imo it's too stressful already never mind having lit exams which no ones in no way prepared for

Any GCSE grade is better than no GCSE grade.

I'd rather not get that gcse, looks better than getting a D or something
That's in my opinion anyways;3

I dunno, if you get a D, it's another GCSE. If you don't take it, it means you're on the same level as people that get a U.

But as long as you reckon you'll get the C in English Language, you should be fine.

That's why personally I'd take the GCSE - just in case. And what would the be the difference between not taking the exam, and simply not revising for the exam but taking it anyway?
