I picked...

Drama

Geography

They don't mean much if I'm honest. Not too much control on what you do in the future, unless its a language or something, then again I say that, but I am going into University doing acting, it fits quite well with my choices.

I picked Drama, History and French. I love Drama, it's my favourite subject so I'm really happy I chose it but I regret picking the other two. I have so much coursework for French and my teacher doesn't explain the work well. History it's all so fast paced and I have loads of sheets in my folder, I always have to write essays.

I chose Drama, RM (woodwork) and Geography!



I think I would take something like music over Geography, as there is a pile of coursework xD

And my friends who took music have like a really thin revision guide and they just do practicals every lesson!

For my school we have to do

Maths
English LIT/LANG
Science (Double Award for me)
R.E
I.T

But subjects with no GCSE results are

C.P
P.E

I chose
Drama- Glad I chose it enjoying it a lot. But A LOT of coursework.
History- I am glad I chose it but it is a lot work. And 100% exam is a nightmare
French- I hate myself for letting my mum persuade me to do this. I am awful at it..
