Hey my friend is making a gcse traitors game on a whatsapp channel would anyone be interested in joining?? we have about ten members so far, my friend writes the story and we read through it every day to try and find out whos a traitor and whos a faithful. It has tons of gcse characters like inspector goole, macbeth, and niche ones too like the guys from blood brothers. we appreciate all joins and you dont have to contribute, just occasionally vote in a poll

i get up at 6am, leave at 6:30am, get on the bus at 6:50, get off the bus at 7:30, and get to school by 8:30 (i walk 25mins to a friends house). i get home at ~5:15pm on monday-wednesday(bus takes too long and 6th lesson), ~4:15pm on thursdays, and ~6pm on fridays (i have rehearsals until 4:30pm on fridays).

im so tired. theres so much to do at school, and then homework, and then revision on top of that bro. i have my college interview and my audition in november. i need to figure out a song to sing for that, and also have to act during it </3

i dont even know HOW to revise, when i try put it all on flashcards im told im doing it wrong

i didnt get above 49% on my recent mocks, and i just keep falling behind further and further, and nobody seems to care ?? also my handwriting genuinely cant be read by some of my teachers that they dont even bother reading my book atp

WHAT DO I DOOOOOO

Which is better Asking cause we all hate English Lit but the year 11s have done it and now say they hate doing English Language. Saying we should enjoy our time in Lit.

I'm currently doing A-Level Combined English w/ AQA, and in our anthology, we have to study different modes. In GCSE, you're used to all your texts being written; in A-Level, you get spoken texts (random people chatting, documentaries, those 30 second unskippable ads that stop you from being able to watch FreeScienceLessons 1 hour before your mock).

You also get 'blended mode' which is when a text has characteristics of both written and spoken texts. One example is a forum. Now, the forums they use in the anthology are old af and the posts come from like 2013 and there's a forum for boomers to discuss stuff and that's somehow made it onto a national anthology we all have to study.

That anthology has been in use since 2016, so it's not exactly new. If they want to renew the anthology they might have to look at newer texts from newer forums. Instead of 4chan and 'Gransnet', AQA might go on Reddit to find content. Yes, where you are right now.

So don't be afraid to chat on Reddit, cause you never know. One day, maybe you can get your name and your meme on an official A-Level anthology to be studied by millions of students.

Have fun with that!

I had to choose between media+technology (LITERAL HELL) or education+future (WHICH WOULD REQUIRE ME TO WRITE 12 PARAGRAPHS FOR HOMEWORK THIS WEEK BC OUR LAST TEACHER DIDNT GET US TO FILL IN ANY GENERAL CONVERSATION ANSWERS) I guess I'm stuck doing frech homework until the end of time

Side note what the hell are the media and technology questions? "What are your opinions on online shopping" idfk Susan what do you think

what a levels are you guys picking/have picked and why? i'm not really too sure what i wanna do yet, i'm thinking def biology though. lmk your personal experiences!!

any tips or websites please let me know and i’m in year 11

Inspired by this post from last year because it was surprisingly helpful: https://www.reddit.com/r/GCSE/s/DPn9Gxgyvn

(EDIT: I'm seeing everyone clicking on the linked post but barely anyone is actually contributing to the revision thread. 💔 Please drop ANYTHING you know! Themes, quotes, characters, context, analysis, etc!!)

There’s so much content idek where to start 😭

Also how many hours per day do people plan to revise over half term? I’m thinking around 5-6 but I know some people that are planning to do 8 😭

So i'm currently a year 11, and I'd say i get really good grades. I've never really studied, so all of my efforts have mostly been skill and natural talent. However, i do understand that gcses are extremely important and that I should definitely start studying (and i will), but my elder sister keeps telling me to put my life and enjoyment on hold until they are over, such as haircuts and even speaking about hair dye, i understand where shes coming from but is it really necessary that i stop doing everything outside of school and revising?

It's making me feel so trapped, and honestly, I'd rather just not deal with all of this (if you can understand what im saying 😭)

for context my sister hated school, my family isnt from the UK and we moved here in 2014 so we werent that well adjusted and my family life is very abusive

i just dont want to put my life and things that make me feel like life is worth living on hold

has anyone else experienced similar feelings?

(if so please give me some advice)

Why the grade boundaries went so high??? Istg i got the same marks in 2022 and 2025, but it had a grade difference T=T

Hello! I am in year 10, and I really want to get as ahead as I possibly can. I’m doing Triple AQA science and I have one notebook for each (bio, chem, phys), but I have no idea how to structure my notes. Or if I need to make any at all?

I’ve watched a lot of revision guide videos on YouTube, and everyone says something different, like “just do past papers,” or “do flashcards and active recall,” which are both great! I know! But I think notes are the foundation of your understanding/learning, and I feel like I don’t know how to do them effectively.

Any advice would be appreciated, thank you!

Kind of what the title says to be honest. Which one has more Algebra/ Trig/ Stuff with the alphabet replacing numbers? (And more importantly) Does one of them have less statistics (coming from someone doing GCSE Stats).

Other questions in case anyone would be kind enough to answer them:

- Is A-Level English Lit better for prospects post-16 at universities than A-Level Drama & Theatre studies?

-Which History is more focused on the social aspects of history: Early Modern (witchcraft + England 1509-1603 + Luther + German reformation + coursework) or Modern (Russia 1917-1991 + Maos China + British experience of warfare + coursework)

-If you did an EPQ, what did you do it on?

-Have you had a nice week

Also, to any fellow year 11's who have made it this far, what courses are you doing Post-16? Any V-Level people here?

Bye bye

Can someone please help me with a question I got in my maths lesson today, I got it from my teacher but we haven't been given a markscheme.

I'm retaking maths in November and I was wondering if anyone could give me some guidance on how they work?

I have mocks in two months. I usually get 4s and 5s. Fir literature im doing Romeo and Juliet. How the hell do I revise I’m so lost. Like there’s literally no way to revise any of them.
