GCSE to a level

🗨️Discussion

ive just finished GCSEs and ive been seeing quite a few people saying that Gcses literally cannot be compared to a levels and that it's a big jump which is sorta making me dread it now...

​

I've been seeing some people also saying that you would need to study the second you start with some even beginning during the holidays ( like i just finished exams give me a break😭)

​

my mum said that apparently people find it hard cuz you aren't being " spoon fed" everything and have to study and research things for yourself without teachers telling you everything but is this actually true?

​

but the thing is my teachers for secondary were sorta useless especially for physics and chemistry so I had to teach myself a lot of the syllabus anyways so I'm not completely alien to taking the initiative and independence

​

btw im taking psychology, business and travel and tourism
