Our mock GCSE's have finished and our real ones are coming up in May/June. I got mostly A* in the mocks, and don't like the fact we have to learn it again for our real modules. But if I don't, I'll feel really nervous and anxious all the time. Plus I want to do some real physics, not learn stupid AQA mark schemes! :x
I also want to ask you guys this: do you make silly mistakes in exams? In my maths non-calc paper I got 81%. I could have got in the 90's if it weren't for the silly mistakes I made. Seriously, I made mistakes while expanding brackets!! !! ! I've been doing them since I was 6! 8O
Thanks for listening,folks!

Yea, I hate when I make stupid mistakes.
I used to (and still do) make silly mistakes on tests/quizzes, but I have minimized them.
Try to not worry about it, like think about the worst thing that could happen and then thing about the best thing that could happen. Aim for the high goal, and promise yourself you won't hit the low goal.
Oh, and if you study, there isn't much else you can do other than that so you CAN'T worry.
