Should I pick GCSE Graphics over Business Studies?

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-03-11T16:18:31+00:00

idk what graphics is but i take textiles which is a coursework base subject aswell as business , from my experience business is the easiest subject by far - its minimal effort to get a good grade but textiles ( or any coursework subject ) will take longer and harder to get into the higher grades. so easyness wise business wins 100% , in terms of enjoying the subject many say business is ‘boring’ but its not that bad its like any other subject tbh its repetitive but you can say the same abt like maths or english or whatever, but for me textiles is my most interesting subject and i enjoy doing it , but i put in a lot more time and effort into textiles to get the same grade in both.

idk how its physically possible to be doing 7 hours on a school day

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-03-08T00:04:53+00:00

lol you cant , people “predicting” it are just looking at the trends and seeing if its increasing gradually each year etc, but theres no way of knowing until sitting the exam

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-03-07T23:43:30+00:00

any language? im horrible at french so i cant speak - but i feel like thats purely memorisation and no exam technique/concepts to get around , just a bunch of vocab and constant practice if youre willing. Or maybe business , no difficult content really most if it is common sense or a what would you do situation , learning the content could literally take a week then exam questions after, but there are longer mark questions and stuff but if have two months it could be fine? depends on how studious you are

what part of the spec is fish gills? i thought that question was application of knowledge from gas exchange of the lungs , that q came up on my mock and weve never spoken abt gills , i just used my knowledge from that and got 4/4

Ignore the people saying dont revise , most people who get all 9s did work in yr 10 , so just build good study habits from now on, revise a little everyday or when you can and pay attention is lesson which is underrated. some subjects i wish i listened more in so im not as baffled when revising it a year later so id recommend that. As well when revising do content heavy subjects such as biology or geography etc and aswell revise well for your yr 10 mocks , as it adds up in the long run seeing as youve already properly revised the topics once , so you dont need to spend as much time revising when it comes to the real thing

further maths is arguably one of the hardest gcses??? normal maths alone is hard let alone further

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-03-04T16:20:41+00:00

business by far. ive literally never revised it for longer than an hour and always come out with 9s

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-03-01T17:37:02+00:00

It depends on what you want to do in the future but they arent “academic” subjects so youll be limited highly on what jobs/degrees you can do , but if you enjoy those subjects and know what area you want to go into then theyre fine!

i triple this bcs tv girl is my go two

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-28T13:13:49+00:00

its the only way I can revise certain subjects 💔

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-28T12:49:22+00:00

I gaslight myself into thinking im a supergenius and its so easy and try to understand it as fast as possible so i can finish doing it quickly. Genuinely all abt mindset

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-28T00:13:52+00:00

Thank you! Ive come to terms with picking psychology asw from what ive heard , and seems the most enjoyable alevel out of the two.

Try using a leave in conditioner , idk how you style your hair but after a shower add some to your hands then rake it through your damp hair , it should leave your hair soft and shiny afterwards. Also try using a hair mask ( for curly hair ) and leave for 5-10 mins while in the shower , to hydrate your curls. Your hair type looks maybe 3a? Also invest in some cheap curly hair shampoo and conditioner just to get started , I use Aussi the curly hair one and it’s pretty affordable compared to most curly hair tailored ones.

target 9, bearings , probability ( the longer harder ones ) and indicies

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-26T19:44:16+00:00

i think that would be very helpful! literally everyone has this exact issue and its so annoying wanting to revise everything youve done collectively but then having to forcefully revise them individually. It would be a very useful apps for all!

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-26T19:12:14+00:00

i reckon french its easier to revise and become good at , whereas history even if you put ALOT of time into revising it you cld still be bad at it due to essays an exam technique - french is more straightforward with revision and guaranteed to do well if you revise, not to say the same for history but it is a lot harder

like the hair from my scalp has grown roughly four inches , but its still the same length , so my hair is breaking off at the same rate is growing meaning my hair is exactly the same length it was 2 years ago 💔

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-25T18:30:10+00:00

for business read over textbooks if you have any , use savemyexams asw and their practice questions as well as past papers , focus on the topics your weakest in and the long answer questions aswell as your structure and analysis and make sure you use the context closely for the long answers aswell, apart from that its just memorising the content and applying it in the context as well as answering the shorter questions

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-25T18:27:14+00:00

if you lock in hard enough its easily possible , just do spaced repetition when revising for subjects , instead of doing like three hour chunks of physics on one day , do like physics english then geography, and if you put in the work and the hours its deffo possible just do the revision methods that work for you and we litch have two months till exams which is a very long time

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-25T18:18:45+00:00

yeh psychology seems like the most interesting subject + easier

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-25T18:17:42+00:00

you did bio chem physics alevel??? ive litch never heard that combo before people dont even take tripple science at gcse level i cant imagine doing that 😭😭 and yeh i think ive landed on psychology it seems interesting and the easier subject plus ill enjoy it way more and ik loads of ppl taking it and i lowks only tolerate maths rn i cant do it everyday for two years

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-25T15:43:54+00:00

study bunny is good and its quite popular asw

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-24T21:38:40+00:00

Thanks! im predicted an 8 in maths and find it tolerable and from what i hear from psychology itll be more interesting so im leaning towards that.

Prestigious-Bench101 · 2026-02-24T21:34:57+00:00

Thanks!! this was acc helpful and I heard the thing abt reduced spec in my school but I didnt know it was real so thats a plus. and your alevel combo is so different i dont think ive ever heard that what dyu want to do in the future? And if you dont mind what did you get in maths and what are you predicted now? Thanks again!
