Year 10 - Difficult already!

[Kate..]

Heyo Tibbers :)

I started my first day of year 10 today and everyone always said it was tougher than year 9 but i didn't realise it would be THAT tough! I have to do half an hour of coursework every night just to stay on top of everything and with triple science i have to start revising nowwww! Argh I'm never going to go out again!!

Sorry, I was in need of a moan!

[SiaSiaSia]

really?
i remember year 10 was really easy :S
year 11 is where it gets hard
i suppose it's differet for every person/school though

[DamonJ]

I only like it cause I burn my friends hair with bunson burners.

[Jen]

Aww...

Year 10 isn't that bad...

[Conzors]

My year 10 was alright.

It was kinda easy.. but kinda hard.

But no stresss.

[Magic]

Na, I was like that at the start.
It will soon be normal again!

[MarkWaldorf]

[Chemicle]

[Hugo]

LOL, it gets better once you get on top of stuff and the teachers make it seem scary than it really is to make you work harder =p

2nd year in college is really difficult.
We had a massive 2 hour lecture today, and it was impossible to keep up with notes, and I had a 500 word essay first day back. For people who think Performing arts is easy... are deluded lol.

Its actually probably one of the hardest subjects out there!

[Loukas]

I personally think Mine and Kate's school are putting to much presure on us. I mean they are expecting SO much, i really don't think i can give as much as they want.. My tutor said to me i should get 9 passes!! I wa in shock! We need to beat the year 11's that just left that got like 65-70%, 6 passes! I just dont want to let anyone down..

Well you would be very surprised! We do long lessons about history and techiques... we do a hell of a lot of research. We have to run around all day and be on our feet and keep energy levels up, we have to perform in front of hundreds of people on a fortnightly basis, we have far more extra curricular activities and college can finish at 8pm... or even be on a saturday. And our home work can take up any of the rest of our spare time...
I would like to find a course where you have to have more dedication and energy than a PA course!

Year 10 was easy for me but that was 4 years ago lol

[Kate..]

Well I know year 11 is probably harder lol but I'm not in year 11 and year 10 is hard for me at this present moment. And our school has such a reputation to uphold and everything and they put soo much pressure on us!! Like in science, english, art and pe all my teachers are saying they'll be seriously disapointed if i get lower than an A!! And i've got to spend soooo much time on coursework and things, especially english cause i wanna do really really well in that because it's my best subject and it's just suddenly really stressfull.

They've also made the time tables really bad!! Like tuesday and thursdays are two options that we picked all day, so mines like drama history pe and art all day, which is great but then on mondays wednesdays and fridays it's ALL science maths and english which is KILLER

[Sam!]

I found Year 10 super easy till the end. The start was simple. Didn't have coursework till after Christmas.

[Kate..]

I have 3 bits already :sad:

[Scarlett.]

Ahhh, dont bother about it Kate, its hard at first, but you will get used to it (and probs love it):wink:

What did you take?

Cause you dunt have coursework in Maths or Science and English aint much. I started DT coursework in Jan2008 and Geography in February. I don't do coursework for Spanish, German or RE either.

IT is the bitch though, starts in Yr9.

I'm finding Year 11 easy peasy at the moment. I know it won't be.

[Indierock&roll]

ive just started year 11 and tbh year 10 was really easy, i didnt do much i just laughed and that in my lessons didnt do much homework ( only for textiles i had to do quite a lot because its coursework ) but yeah and in my results for some of the gcse's i got i got really good like in science overall i got a B and i onoly started to revise for the test like a week before and not even that much .
only been in year 11 about a week so cant really say weather its hard or not havnt done much

[Tom4784]

I never had much trouble with GCSE's. BTEC National Diploma on the other hand.... :sad:

It'll get easier in time you just got to get used to the workload, orginisation is key for proficiency and progress!
