Going to be a quiet month or so on here for me. First up is English language tomorrow - it should be something that I'm alright with... Fingers crossed!

Now now Mel - you can't possibly have done your GCSEs 20 years ago. That would have made you about 5!

 

[Skyhook]

Good luck Ben. I'm sure you'll be fine with English- I can understand everything you say!

 

[Michaelf]

Good luck Ben I know how difficult it can be but it will all be worth it in the end!!!

Good luck, Ben.

Sure you won't need it.

As someone said earlier read the paper (and if there are optional questions read them again).

Annotate your question paper - it is yours, not the school's! - you can easily forget an idea in the exam.

Again, as earlier, answer the question asked and check that you have. Maths particularly!

Mobile phone off and NOT on your person. Fold a page of paper to level up your wobbly desk before starting.

Don't fold question papers to A4 - keep them open as A3. It saves time and helps to avoid mistakes.

Check your answer paper (multiple guess) is on the correct tier!!

Use up all the time available. One mistake corrected, even in the last 5 minutes, can be one grade gained.

There are a lot more, but hope those help!

Regards, RAB
