Well at least your doing the new science syllabus,ours is alot harder :cry:

I'd rather do the old course. I've seen mock exams and mark schemes and the writing is so shoddy, I'll be suprised if anyone passes. It's not about scientific knowledge, it's about opinion, and your opinion has to be their opinion to get the mark.

They've completely dumbed it down and give marks out for regurgitating the answer, but scrimp on marks based on knowledge.

I know a lot of people probably aren't gonna appreciate me saying this but GCSEs really are incredibly easy, especially compared to A-levels. When I started at college I took GCSE Spanish from scratch with hardly any knowledge of the language whatsoever and I ended up with an A* at the end of the year. So don't worry, chances are you'll ace your mocks and probably the real thing.

That's really good!

I'm doing the same as you, except I'm doing Italian, not Spanish!

everyone....

good luck on your exams! just relax, dont be nervous. bring your IPod or CD player so you can chill with some relaxing music beforehand. try listening to Jonn Serrie, that will relax you. http://vipinfo.com/jonn/ You can download his music and burn a CD. I turned all my friends on to Jonn Serrie. They all love him. Or if thats not your thing, go to your music store and buy anything from the Real Music label, lovely relaxing music. I believe they do sell those CDs in stores in your part of the world. the day of your exam dont worry and stress about it, think of something happy. when you get ready to do your exam just close your eyes and take deep breaths. focus on the questions not your stress.

I have to learn a whole french presentation by tuesday,rubbish.

ah nasty, i remember GCSE days. could be worse... all of my orals have needed to be in both languages obviously. so at GCSE (incl mocks) i had my french one day and then my german like the day after. thats no fun.

and with last year my ASs. French and German Mocks right near each other, aint nice.

However you will be fine! You get in and out and don't know what you were worrying about! They go a lot quicker than you'd think!

Saying that, orals are probs still one of the language exams that i like least. Ive realised they arent as bad as i thought they were though! Good luck with yours, you'll do fine!
