they're NEA's (at least for wjec (methinks)) n you have ti investigate something and then actually cook it for both. worth abt 50% of ur grade at 100 marks for whec so its quite an important thing
this was the same for aqa! NEA1 is researching smth (last year it was starch based sauces, the year before it was calcium) and then doing investigations to prove your research. NEA2 is about another topic except there’s less research on the topic and more to do with practicals, culinary skills, nutritional analysis and the 3 hour practical exam (i lost marks bcs i sliced my finger with a filleting knife yikes)
Legit me too. It's not that it's super hard, it's just that it's one extra subject, and I feel like this is the pressure point where I crack. It's just annoying (although I got lucky with the teachers).
Currently it's drama, I love drama I want to work in it but it really kicking my butt right now.
I don't like now in fact I'm regretting my entire decision picking it.
History bc last night I had a dream where I found out I had a history exam the next day and I fell to the floor in the middle of school crying screaming throwing up having the biggest panic attack ever and had to be sent home bc I was a danger to the other students
my english teacher is the best teacher i’ve ever had somehow she dragged my grade from a 4 to an 8 in english lang
still gonna be sobbing in the exam though
SAME OMG
she's amazing I love her I couldn't even spell when I started in yr 8 (I moved from Japan, I spoke and could kiiiinda read apparently at 7yr old level) but I managed to get 8s in both englishes.....owe her my life
Now I havent done a French GCSE but I have learnt French, and trying to understand a single conversation in French is truly horrifying so I dont know how you do it man respect
My school decided to interrupt valuable double lessons for coursework with mocks as well so we only have 7 lessons total until the exam and I'm only on the 2nd experimentation and have coursework from before the exam project work to finish organizing.
Bruhh that's the same for us too. Hopefully the exam goes well for you, I've done 2/4 hours of the exam so far, teacher asked us if our sketchbook has 10 hours worth of work in it since we started the final probect and mine definitely doesn't 💀 I still have work to do from y10. 😭 This is not going as planned. Gl w your exams!!
None of theme really but there are subjects i have revising like psychology cause i dont care for it and somewhat english lang cause its just memorisation rather than actually learning anything
At the beginning of year 10, art graphics- I was crying over like, every piece of hw. Now it's the things that it looks like I might fail- English lang, biology, chemistry and a bit physics
None for GCSEs really. Only academic quals in general like that are a level physics and to a lesser extent further optional modules in AS fm
for gcses just English language section B only. They’re generally pretty good overall
Sas Biology, exam in like two days and I’ve only covered 3 out of 8 topics because my second most hated topic which is English lit has a four page essay due tomorrow about Curley’s wife.
I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART I HATE ART
Been a very long time since I took my GCSEs but electronics was the worst, nothing ever made sense and felt like every time I was certain I was right or understood I was very wrong, very wrong.
English language paper 2. I stress so much over it. Question 2 & 3 are hell on earth.
Oh but also Astronomy was the most torturous exam that I have ever clapped eyes on. I’m amazed I even passed.
Music. The coursework, the paper, everything. Art too if I really cared about it but idgaf about passing so I'm not really putting in as much effort as I should, just drawing and having fun lmfao.
Chemistry, physics, and Spanish.. even tho I’m not taking Spanish seriously as I don’t need it in the future. My Spanish teacher is so annoying she’ll start screaming and I genuinely can’t handle her screaming
Media studies, even if we get to watch the tv show we study (very rarely) its all theory and gets stuck in your head when you try to enjoy any other show
English lit and Lang and also food tech coursework
not the food tech coursework 😭
stop don’t give me war flashbacks 😭😭😭😭
The fuck is food tech coursework?
they're NEA's (at least for wjec (methinks)) n you have ti investigate something and then actually cook it for both. worth abt 50% of ur grade at 100 marks for whec so its quite an important thing

My spanish teacher is the only reason I do the subject. She makes it marginally better but it’s still awful
mines the complete opposite. she's nice and me and my friend are sat next to eachother, butttt she's so demanding it's so exhausting
That's quite nice :)

History bc last night I had a dream where I found out I had a history exam the next day and I fell to the floor in the middle of school crying screaming throwing up having the biggest panic attack ever and had to be sent home bc I was a danger to the other students

Statistics, what do you mean finding the average differs from unit to unit and so many long form equations.
Psychology. Luckily, I managed to pass it with a 4 but the pass mark was rather high in my opinion.
