I appreciate all GCSEs will take a certain amount of time and hard work, but just wondering if anyone could give their thoughts on whether DD's choices are generally going to be more time consuming than others, or just average?
She's doing geography, French, art textiles (we know this is going to be time consuming), music and ethics. Also doing Maths, Eng Lang & Eng Lit and triple science.
DD isn't lazy, but she's been chosen to do triple science and not happy as she feels she's at the bottom of the set and just doesn't get half of it. If she's going to have a heavy workload, we both feel she'd be better doing double and being able to concentrate on doing her best with other subjects. I suspect she's likely to end up with GCSE grades As and Bs, but an A is in sight for French, she's desperate for an A is music which I think is hard to achieve.
