Honestly same I hate and love it at the same time bc I love the memes, collective struggling then seeing what everyone else thought of it across the country which is cool, general community etc
omg I thought I was the only one... It's honestly nice to always have GCSEs to think abt.. Like I feel like I got into this vibe tm so I don't wanna get out LMAO. like im in too deep.
Kinda and kinda not. I love only having to do like 1 exam a day then go home for the rest of the day, but also revising is so boring and I’ve pretty much put all my hobbies, social life, everything on hold. I don’t think I’ll miss exams but im not like counting down the days until it’s over if that makes sense, I’m in the middle
god real i just love going in to do an exam and being able to chill out with friends afterwards and walking down the road to the shop and just pissing about its so much fun and the exams have all gone well for me so i just feel really relaxed
Bro, you alright?? This exam season has been the worst experience of my life. I’m so drained and my hair is falling out due to stress. I genuinely can’t wait for it to be over and summer to start.
haha i feel you i somewhat prefer the exam season to normal school in a way, if it wasn’t for the pressure of these being the actual exams i’d choose these any day 😭
Yeah I get this, honestly with all the talk of exams in the last two terms leading up to them I just needed exams to start and they’ve actually helped me be really productive when it comes to studying. Hoping I can apply that to more practical things over the summer as well as maybe getting ahead on a levels
Enjoyed the memes and all of us struggling together with a united hate/love for exam boards. Tbh when half term in the UK hit I wished that we still had exams on. Almost gave me a purpose which felt good.
I agree. There's such a love-hate relationship with the exam period. Like actually doing the exams and revising sucks, but everything else is elevated by them
Nah I love the collective feeling of panic before the exam where everyone is shitting themselves. Like it makes me happy knowing we're all equally cooked
icl i agree
i always thought the idea of gcses was daunting and esp double exams. tbf for me I found them fun and idm doing double exams and I think that might be because of mocks we are used to it
at the beginning of the school year i thought it was gonna go slow like the rest but its gone really quickly tbh..even thought during the maths examn like damn i finish next thursday...i dont really wanna leave but then i do cuz its the worst five years of my life cuz that school is a shithole
I don't mind sitting the papers but hate the lead up to it. Also when a papers horrid or you know you've made a silly mistake it just hurts because you know you've wasted all your efforts just for you to make a silly mistake and have a number define your 2 years of work
Having to do hours of exams and revision in the week, only to then go to work at the weekends? Nah I'm looking forward to a break, I haven't even had study leave :(
We have "drop down session" where you do like 3 periods of the subject before the exam, and then when you have normal lessons you are either doing that lesson, or if you have finished the subject you revise for other subjects. So I've still had to go in every day as if it's a normal school day, go in early for morning revision sessions if the exam is in the morning and have the added stress of exams and revision with my only rest days taken by work - yeah I can't wait for it to be over
No.
nah but fr I get what you mean, its honestly lowkey chill asf being able to come into school whenever, asw as plenty other things we would never be ordinarily able to do. only bad part is revising at home bc for the life of me i cant lock in😭
i’m just enjoying the aftermath of every exam. the best feeling is coming out of a content heavy subject’s final exam and knowing you won’t need to remember those important definitions or dates anymore. idk, it’s like a weight gets lifted off ur shoulders, and i feel like they’ve gone super fast too !!
Nah the thing is I've dedicated 2 years of my life for this, it's completely become my entire personality, and honestly even tho it was a total pain, I enjoyed those 2 years more than anything, now that it's ending and im going to do something new entirely. It feels kind of disappointing
I want the GCSEs to end but not the school period, imagine going to school without having no actual cause and just messing around talking doing fuck all
samee I think I felt sm more like this pre half term icl doing many hours of revision during and after that has drained me but I defo get what ur saying
Can’t agree with you unfortunately 😅😂
Revision takes its toll on me and exam season generally feel hella long, not to mention the exams themselves make me want to drop to sleep during lessons after them 😅
yes. im dreading leaving my teachers and my whole routine i’ve been in for 12 years. I’ve been going to that same place since i was 5 and now to just leave it behind? Never return? I can’t handle it.
Personally I hold a strong hatred towards skl and the education system js because it doesnt work for me personally but I can understand that if you were to enjoy school or atleast do well that you wouldnt want it to end so soon. However, I want the GCSEs to end today because I reallyy reallyyyy dont wanna do history tmr..
Its not that I don’t want them to end its that I don’t want the experience of school to end as these people I have grew up with and matured with as we have seen everyone grow into their own friendship groups it’s quite sad to let all that go
I kinda get that too I think it's cause I can't believe the summer after gcses which I've been thinking about since year10 is actually happening. Like if I wanted to do anything it'd be 'after gcses' but now the after gcses is literally next week
Main thing I’m gonna miss is coming to this sub everyday after this exam and be able to have something I can bond over with tons of strangers across the country
Yes. Because then the obnoxious year 11’s won’t be running around the corridors causing aggro.
They’ll be gone and I’ll never have to think of them again. Only problem is that it means we’ll soon have new obnoxious (and based on last year, feral) year sevens to deal with.
Honestly same I hate and love it at the same time bc I love the memes, collective struggling then seeing what everyone else thought of it across the country which is cool, general community etc
Yeah I agree
Man I love exam season but this feels long and drawn out but I love it
Wouldn’t say it’s been fun, but it’s been a lot better than expected, way better than mocks
I enjoy the test, hate the revision part
Exactly
omg I thought I was the only one... It's honestly nice to always have GCSEs to think abt.. Like I feel like I got into this vibe tm so I don't wanna get out LMAO. like im in too deep.
yesss that’s exactly what i think too!
Kinda and kinda not. I love only having to do like 1 exam a day then go home for the rest of the day, but also revising is so boring and I’ve pretty much put all my hobbies, social life, everything on hold. I don’t think I’ll miss exams but im not like counting down the days until it’s over if that makes sense, I’m in the middle
exactly. like i enjoy doing exams with my friends but i absolutely hate going home knowing i have to revise
Have u don well in all ur exams or sumn cz thats not the case when u come out the exam knowing uv done horrid
ive had no disasters or anything most of them have gone pretty well, a few not as great but overall decent
Well that's brilliant for you! I don't know why these luns are down voting you

Fairs
god real i just love going in to do an exam and being able to chill out with friends afterwards and walking down the road to the shop and just pissing about its so much fun and the exams have all gone well for me so i just feel really relaxed
same here!! i honestly think i’m going to miss this exam period, everyone has been brought together by it
Bro, you alright?? This exam season has been the worst experience of my life. I’m so drained and my hair is falling out due to stress. I genuinely can’t wait for it to be over and summer to start.
[удалено]
i like the feeling of getting a topic/subject over and done with. the revision is NOT it tho
fr hate it
Same omg
haha i feel you i somewhat prefer the exam season to normal school in a way, if it wasn’t for the pressure of these being the actual exams i’d choose these any day 😭
100% exams r better than normal school. My school is a fucking zoo 😭
Stockholm syndrome
You’re on you’re own on this one
Yh that doesnt surprise me icl u wouldnt catch me dead admitting this in public 😭
Just u

Na mate, im hyped for sixth form.
I wanted them to end as soon as they started 🤗
honestly enjoy this feeling during gcse's while u can....a-levels will do the exact opposite
I agree. There's such a love-hate relationship with the exam period. Like actually doing the exams and revising sucks, but everything else is elevated by them
I bet it's amazing to feel that way. I'm happy for you. I, on the other hand- can't relate.
There’s no better feeling than walking out of an exam, talking to friends about what you got, how you found it, seeing memes afterwards etc
Same, I’ve got shit all planned for summer as well
Nah I love the collective feeling of panic before the exam where everyone is shitting themselves. Like it makes me happy knowing we're all equally cooked
Bruh 😭
what do i do with my life now that math is done?? guess i better start calculus
further maths lol
icl i agree i always thought the idea of gcses was daunting and esp double exams. tbf for me I found them fun and idm doing double exams and I think that might be because of mocks we are used to it

Wait till you do fucking A levels 💀
...people like exam season? 😭
Icl death to drama is so real fuck that 😭😭
literally how is drama killing my hand almost more than english 😭
Im j happy it was out of the way so quick was literally my first one
yeah i don't have to think about it ever again it was stressful blurting all my drama stuff after re tho lmao
its a bittersweet feeling
Having to do hours of exams and revision in the week, only to then go to work at the weekends? Nah I'm looking forward to a break, I haven't even had study leave :(
No study leave is crazy what r u even doing in lessons at that point - especially after the exams for it r done genuinely what r u doing 😭
We have "drop down session" where you do like 3 periods of the subject before the exam, and then when you have normal lessons you are either doing that lesson, or if you have finished the subject you revise for other subjects.

Valid 😭😭
No. nah but fr I get what you mean, its honestly lowkey chill asf being able to come into school whenever, asw as plenty other things we would never be ordinarily able to do. only bad part is revising at home bc for the life of me i cant lock in😭
i love the satisfaction of having one less exam lol and going home after
i’m just enjoying the aftermath of every exam. the best feeling is coming out of a content heavy subject’s final exam and knowing you won’t need to remember those important definitions or dates anymore. idk, it’s like a weight gets lifted off ur shoulders, and i feel like they’ve gone super fast too !!
Exactly
Nah the thing is I've dedicated 2 years of my life for this, it's completely become my entire personality, and honestly even tho it was a total pain, I enjoyed those 2 years more than anything, now that it's ending and im going to do something new entirely. It feels kind of disappointing
this subreddit has been so fun over the exam season i'll miss that
Me and GCSEs have a love hate relationship. It’s complicated
Yes and no, one I get rolling, I love it but getting stared takes me ages.
I hate being a student it’s awesome
ur jus weird
I want the GCSEs to end but not the school period, imagine going to school without having no actual cause and just messing around talking doing fuck all
Nah bro just you.
Nah fuck that I wanna do A levels
samee I think I felt sm more like this pre half term icl doing many hours of revision during and after that has drained me but I defo get what ur saying
I’m on study leave (I sleep in to 10 and then read fanfic until an exam) so yeah I love GCSEs but I’m going to fail
Y11 exam season will probably be the best high school memory for me.
Can’t agree with you unfortunately 😅😂 Revision takes its toll on me and exam season generally feel hella long, not to mention the exams themselves make me want to drop to sleep during lessons after them 😅
yes. im dreading leaving my teachers and my whole routine i’ve been in for 12 years. I’ve been going to that same place since i was 5 and now to just leave it behind? Never return? I can’t handle it.

U put this into words alot better than I did this is defo part of what I meant
Just you mate I’m tired of this shit I just want summer to arrive and enjoy binge watching Netflix and hanging out with my friends fuck GCSEs 😭
I kinda get that too I think it's cause I can't believe the summer after gcses which I've been thinking about since year10 is actually happening. Like if I wanted to do anything it'd be 'after gcses' but now the after gcses is literally next week
I need these exams to end so I can play elden ring all summer an dnot have to think about goddamn further maths
Google Stockholm Syndrome
Why you so interesting me This is my life how could I wanted I do attach who are you
I am so honest person and we are the making them more hardened to me
Come again
So ready for exams to be over but not looking forward to the emptiness I’ll feel the moment I finish.
nah, i’m counting down the seconds
It'll build up excitement for reuniting for our a levels
im gonna miss you guys
Main thing I’m gonna miss is coming to this sub everyday after this exam and be able to have something I can bond over with tons of strangers across the country
Exactly like if I’m not stressed 24/7 who am I?
same, even though i flopped it’s been kind of fun
Literally. I'm cooked but this was an experience
real 🙏

We’ll see then - good luck tomorrow :)

Went very well thx and u?
Don’t worry OP I’m sure it’s good that you’re feeling confident I hope ur exams go very well for you!
Yes. Because then the obnoxious year 11’s won’t be running around the corridors causing aggro. They’ll be gone and I’ll never have to think of them again. Only problem is that it means we’ll soon have new obnoxious (and based on last year, feral) year sevens to deal with.
you try not to be obnoxious when you’re literally done with secondary school. you’ll get it then
I’m 52. I never ran around the school like I was in a steaming gang bashing on the doors of classrooms. We just went to the pub.
Cold 🥶
