    guys whats the difference/meaning between internships and apprenticships

    Either are key to building up a network of contacts and experience when you look for full-time work.

    You're only given the grades not percentages, but my teachers told me that there's an option where you can pay extra in order to get your physical exam paper back after being marked (so you could calculate the percentage yourself that way or check if the marking has been done right).

    I honestly only started most of my exam studying a month or so before exam time because I already had all my notes prepared and was familiar with most of them.. Give more time to the subjects you're worried about. Don't hesitate to ask teachers for ANY kind of help, or go to another class's...

    The rest I didn't do so i have no idea. And for maths, you should focus on the parts that you struggle with and dedicate more time to them (a mistake I didn't fix), e.g. if you have a q in a specific topic you couldn't work out, study the whole topic again to refresh

    For the sciences, you should try to make revision notes for at least 1 science during your free time / summer (i did my chem ones in summer) because they help a lot when you're doing tests and you don't have to stress out during the exams with making notes for them

    English: I didn't really study for it (I did 1st language, second language and literature) lol so I have 3 english certificates. All I did was see how the answers were formatted, and that's it I literally didn't study for it (good enough vocab)

    Thank you :) and sure I can give advice i guess. I can only help you based on individual subjects though because I had a different plan for each of my subjects, so could you please tell me which subjects you're doing?

    I unfortunately have no experience with that. I signed up to the forums before I started my IGCSEs but I didn't have the time to actually go on the forums to ask, so I just stuck to asking friends on Skype and teachers. But if you ask here, it's definitely NOT a waste of time! People here are...
