The one thing I properly remember about GCSEs is triple science...
I had to do 9 exams for it:
Core Biology - Higher
Core Chemistry - Higher
Core Physics - Higher
Additional Biology - Higher
Additional Chemistry - Higher
Additional Physics - Higher
Extended Biology - Higher
Extended Chemistry - Foundation
Extended Physics - Higher
I managed to get A-B on all of them except for extended chemistry.
All the other exams I took were piss easy. My one tip for you is to practise a shit load of past papers, and to learn the mark schemes.
For computing science, I memorised the last 7 or so mark schemes, and when I go to the real thing, I had already seen the majority of questions beforehand. GCSE's isn't about how clever you are - it's about how well you can remember
***By piss easy, I mean that if you do your revision it's easy***

I'll probably start revising around Easter time.
I tend to just read and answer questions in texts books and then do past papers and look at mark schemes. I don't find those creative revision techniques actually help me!
I'm pretty confident with GCSEs at the moment.
Cheers man!

I can't believe it's already the time!
Tomorrow is my last day before study leave and my first GCSE exam is on Friday. Where the fuck has the time gone?!
Just got to get through 26 exams between now at the 16th June and then a massive summer break before A-Levels!
Good luck to everyone taking their GCSEs this summer.

What sucks about over here is that we have to take our exams at the same time as they're being done in the UK - which means I could just have my 3 hour geography paper at 9 at night. -_-

Wouldn't think you'd be allowed to do it at 9 at night. I've got one more week of college before I'm officially done with my freshman year
