I'll just pick two to comment on...
Bullys.. well first of all I hate it when people say bullys are just jealous. In some cases yes, you may be the smartest, the best looking etc. In some cases you may have the least friends, be the most overweight and to be told that bullies are just jealous of you, when you know clearly that they aren't is as distressing. I know in the past people have name called me "Bof" etc.. which is pathetic and it doesn't bother me - I try hard in school and if that makes me a bof then so be it. I have the ability to ignore bullies, but then again I'm quite lucky because I haven't had many encouters with them. However, i've had friends going through severe bullying and I know it lowers your self confidence so much, it has done with me in the past and emotional bullying is the worst as it can cause real psychological problems. Physical bullying is as just as disgraceful and I really hate bullys because I think it can really change the person who you are and sometimes make you the bully yourself.
GCSES.. well I hate them and think they're a complete waste of time. I think they're pretty easy and as long as you keep on top of revision and coursework you should be fine - but that's easy said than done and it's pretty easy to lose motivation. I hate exams and think it should be all coursework - I'm one of those people who do well in class, but struggle when in exams. A lot of it is applying your knowlege in difficulty worded questions especially in science exams.
