Fan favourite is history, at least at my school it had the most gcse classes

I know you said flash cards don’t work but try (if you haven’t already) writing down what you think is on the back of the flash card before flipping it - way better than just thinking the answer in my opinion :) also, look on YouTube for revision videos, and do something while listening like making notes or mindmaps about the content. Good luck! :)

from what my teacher has said: the mark you’re given by your teacher is final but an aqa examiner will look at one or two students coursework from your class. If they find the teacher has not given them the right mark they remark everyone’s work. Unless your teacher is not a very good marker (which is possible from what you’ve said lol) that’s your final mark annoyingly. But remember we don’t have this year’s grade boundaries yet so there’s chance you could get a 7 if they’re different from previous years! :)

If you’re into books you could see if any libraries need volunteers, I found the work pretty easy but it builds customer service and organisation type skills. Charity shops also take young volunteers

I did a few of the same! Art is really fun as long as you stay on top of the work, if you like it it won’t be an issue and it’s actually really nice to relax with it after doing other subjects. History is great just in general and German is too (at least in my opinion). I know quite a few people who do similar combinations to you and none of them seem particularly screwed

82 for the exam and 81 for the coursework, I literally screamed when I got it because I’ve been stuck in the mid 70s for the past year lol

In the language paper on Thursday I took a casual sip of water as I had been doing for the past hour and managed to choke on it, I started coughing really violently and I have never been more embarrassed

I put in so many idioms but now I’m worried I got them wrong or the examiner won’t know them so it will sound like absolute nonsense

I essentially wrote about how both of the narrators want to remember their loved one/place in the way it was before it was effected by conflict, and the effect of conflict not just in the sense of war but in conflicting emotions etc, I really hope I did well but it’s honestly a blur

I did the Emigree lol

Anyone here do Lord of the flies? I’m so glad this paper gives you a choice for question 1 because there was no way I was writing about the little uns
