Do you get a GCSE in PE?

I'd strongly recommend it, i did GCSE PE and am now doing A-level PE and it does help so you have a strong foundation to start learning a-level PE. There's a lot i fall back on now when learning things because i already knew them from GCSE, and all of the people in my a-level class that didn't do GCSE dropped out because it was too difficult. Some schools may not let you do do A-level PE unless you've already done GCSE so you should probably check. good luck in whatever you do :-)

Is French GCSE HARD?

A french GCSE can be hard but generally the government has made it easier all you have to do is have a basic understanding of tenses so present past future imperfect conditional and subjonctife then if you learn the vocabluary for a specific unit that you are doing (media for me) you just piece what you know together and there you are an A in GCSE i am awful at french i mean ive done it for 8 years im 15 and i still struggle but with a bit of revision and some extra help from teachers then i did enough to get an A so tenses, Vocabulary and pronunciation and BONNE CHANCE!!!!

What is GCSE's do you need to become a doctor?

It would be convinient if you do have GCSE's; especically in core science and additional sciences. Also, maths would be essential learning as part of these GCSE's, if you have atleast A grades, then you would seem more suitable to become a doctor, as further learning would seem 'easier'. You would need core sciences and additional sciences at GCSE level as they teach background knowledge at a low pressure; and if you would want to proceed learning them sciences at higher level, whcih then lead you to becoming a doctor! But remember: these GCSE's give you a 'taster' of sciences at a much lower degree of medicine, and if you find them interesting, then proceed.

Are gcse's hard?

GCSEs are designed to challenging, they almost divide the country between those who pass and those who fail. Although many members of the public claim that the exams are getting easier, this is not the case, generations are getting smarter through time and so therefore the government are making them even harder leaving present day students exhausted and under a enormous amounts of stress. In fact, a current A grade in the up coming GCSE mark scheme is the equivalent of a low B almost 30 years ago. GCSEs are very tough, including the preparation which can be emotionally and physically stressful and upsetting so support from friends, family and school is vital in order to achieve the desired grades in the easiest way (if there is an easy way).

The varied subject choices cause a range in difficulty (including if they are available for IGCSE), for example:

Ancient History- MEDIUM

Art- HARD

Biology- MEDIUM

Biology IGCSE- HARDER

Chemistry- HARD

Chemistry IGCSE- EVEN HARDER

English Literature- MEDIUM

French- EASY

Maths- HARD

Maths IGCSE- HARDEST SUBJECT

Physics- MEDIUM

Physics IGCSE- HARD

IGCSEs on the other hand are a big step up and much more challenging as there is no course work to help build up the marks. These examinations require much more work, and are the most difficult to manage. A B GCSE grade is the equivalent to a high A grade and maybe even A* in GCSE examinations of the same subject.

To conclude, all you can do to survive GCSEs is be as prepared as possible. Take regular break when revising and try to start as soon as possible, working from a good set of notes that work best for you.

What grade do you have to have in GCSE'S for maths to be a dentist?

I believe you need a grade B because it is classed as a science at university, but i would say if you have a very good grade at gsce and a-level sciences and you only have a c they would consider you. You would absolutly need at least a c in English and maths gcse.

What GCSE qualifications do you need to become a Veterinary Nurse?

A basic pass. English, Maths and Science at C grade or above.

Higher grades can be an advantage as Vet Nursing is a competative job to apply for. The more you shine, the more likely you are to get the position.

Be warned though, for this reason, the job doesn't pay too well while you are studying/training, and you will be worked hard! Expect to work 5 days a week in surgery and go to college on the sixth day that week. You need to be very committed to the job.

What can you sculpt to get a good grade in art GCSE?

Your good grade will result more from the skill with which you sculpt, than from the skill with which you select a subject to sculpt. Any subject sculpted beautifully enough will become a beautiful sculpture. My personal choice would be to select your favorite superhero from the Avengers movie, and sculpt him or her. Your mileage may vary.
