How do I pass my maths gcse exam?
Basically maths is ruining my life and it has done so for years now. Usually I could just glide by but now, I'm in my first year of sixth form and since I got below a C for my gcse exam, I have to keep retaking it until I reach the required grade. I have a tutor now and even though I go to my lessons at school, my teacher just doesn't benefit me AT ALL. I learn nothing from her, she's awful at explaining things and is just in general a disrespectful person. I'm finding it difficult balancing my other a-levels on top of trying to revise for maths and its incredibly stressful and worrying. If I don't pass maths this year then I'll have to retake it again and again and that worries the hell out of me. I just really want to get it out of the way, it's just math's has never been my subject. I'm just awful at it and I always have been. I don't know any good resources to use for my own revision, so when I get home I just don't know how to revise for it or where to start. How do I manage to balance all my subjects and finally pass maths gcse so I don't have to deal with it again? (p.s I'm doing the foundation paper)
How do i pass my history gcse exam?
Point Evidence Explanation know you're knowledge :D get it into a good order in your head. Just...regurgitate what you know onto the paper and you'll eb fine, keep referring back to the question. At the start make a plan of what you're gonna say. e.g. prove the cold war was due to fears and suspician. you give a brief introduction about the cold war, then say it was the fact the usa had missiles, one was communist, one was capitalist, misunderstandings such as the Ussr's buffer zones being interpreted as a threat to europe etc. you then have to do a conclusion summing up all the points and giving your opinion. good luck =)
What will happen if I swear in my GCSE French exam?
If it elucidates some useful points – it shows some nominal skills but no relevance to the task or if as a candidates, you are able to use appropriate language in a variety of situations, you might want to take a risk and go ahead with it.Also, it would be a good idea to refer to a recent mark scheme and check the rules and regulations for the usage of profanity, and whether or not the candidate is penalised for the same.Good luck! :)
I'm stressing about my GCSE exams and my parents and teachers are of NO help?
I'm in Year 11 and I'm taking my GCSE's this year. Basically last year I stressed out loads over the mock exams we did and they weren't even the real thing so I'm worried what I'm going to be like when the actual ones come about. I cry about it every night because I'm ridiculously terrified about my exams and whether I fail and if I'll be able to go to University etc. The subjects I'm worried about most are History, Maths, Music, AS Level Theology (I'm taking it a year early and I had no choice in the matter because my parents wanted me to do it) and now English. I wasn't worried about English before, however Michael Gove has unfortunately gotten hold of the exams and curriculums etc and has now scrapped the Speaking and Listening exam which I've already taken. I was fuming and so angry and upset when I found out because its now messed up my whole English course and I have to move classes which means I've got to study two NEW books in one year now instead of two years! It's more complicated than it sounds, there's a lot more to it! I'm worried that the teachers going on strike in a few months will affect my education too. I've spoken to my parents about my problems but they've just said 'don't worry you'll do fine' or 'you're not the only one' - I know I'm not the only one going through this but they're not giving me the right answers or support that I need. As a result I went to my Head of House about it and she spoke to me over a couple of weeks or so but she has been of no help whatsoever. It annoys me how the school say they deal with this sort of situation every year so 'feel free to come and have a chat' - they don't help at all, they don't encourage or anything. Please don't tell me to go to a counsellor because my parents would laugh at the idea and refuse. Please help me I don't know what to do anymore.
Physical Education GCSE Exam Question?
The answer is B. A may or may not be incorrect. Some reports say that isometric contractions recruit more muscular units than isotonic contractions but the latest say the opposite, so this issue is controversial (I don't know why that would be an answer as the debate is still going on.) There was a short bit in an article I read recently: http://www.t-nation.com/readTopic.do?id=... It is at the bottom under the heading "Dynamic Exercise: A Bigger Deal for Men" B is correct because isometric work builds strength only at the joint angle used. This is why powerlifters use isometric work to break through sticking points. C is incorrect because the muscle is only strengthened at the joint angle used. For example, many people can hold an isometric contraction using a heavy weight in the 1/4 squat position, but they cannot do the same weight when doing a full squat, because the strength does not transfer to the full ROM movement. D is incorrect, for the most part, because you do not gain a lot of coordination holding an isometric contraction simply because you are not moving. You might be able to balance in that position a little better, but isotonic movements generally require more coordination. So the best answer is B. The answer choices, particularly A and D, are too ambiguous and you could probably debate them if they were on the actual test.
