I found GCSE exams easier than A-levels, as I struggle with inferential concepts and thinking "outside the box" I sometimes found it more difficult to understand the question and apply theories to it. GCSE exams were better as I understood most of what was being asked, Maths and Science were most difficult for me as I struggled a lot with aspects of those subjects. I also remember fearing the results and was sometimes ill the night before an exam because I'd get so worked up over the possibility of failing and not pleasing my family as they had such high expectations of me.
