    Default GCSEs

    Who's doing them? What are you studying? Are you spending all your exam leave playing computer games? Post in here

    (GCSEs are exams taken in England and Wales at the end of year 11, when you're 15/16)

    I'm taking English, English Literature, Higher Maths, Double Science (higher), RE (contemporary moral issues and St Marks Gospel), Food Technology, French, Japanese and History.

    Well, when I was in school I pretty much slept through Years 10 and 11, didn't revise and barely did any coursework. I ended up walking away with a B in Art, a C in English something or other, a Double C in Science, a bunch of D's in the other stuff and a U in Business (which the majority of my class got)

    It got me onto the College course I wanted to do, so I have no regrets.

    Done mine over 7 years ago. I didnt get great marks because I didnt put time and effort in. I managed to get to college and on to uni so not bad. Good luck to those taking them.

    Seriously, come three or four years time, you'll wish you were back doing your GCSEs. I know I do. Simpler times.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

Wow...there's a lot of exams there.

    I'm taking 8.

    English, Maths, Science, ICT, French, DT, Art, History and Travel + Tourism.

    My school never let me take choices, the greedy bastards... Anyway I'm estimated to get D's E's and C's. All Foundation eexcept Maths.

    I'm aiming for a C in Eng lit, Science and History. I could probably pull a C in DT and ICT.

    Oh, we took ICT too, though we did it in year 10. It was a lot of hard work, doing the coursework, but the exam was pretty easy so that's one GCSE passed with a B!

    I cannot get B's even if I tried, I'm doing foundation in all subjects except maths so the highest I can get is C.

    Um, I took mine 8 years ago...

    I did 11 GCSEs at the time. I think I have 3A*s, 7As and a B. They don't really count for anything much now, though. I've only had to prove I had them twice: once when applying for college, and the other time when I was interviewed for teacher training.
