What kind of help?

I am the best at drama/acting in pretty much the whole school, I don't know why everybody else finds it so difficult.

Science classes were my best, biology to be precise.
So, do you need help with any particular subject or something?
You need to tell us a little more if you want help.

Physical education.
I loved it and ended up getting top marks in everything, practical and theory. To this day i still hold some records there. Yay me!

Maths and Physics here. I have tons of physics books, but none of them are really related to my schoolwork. Try getting books related to important subjects. I don't study for maths because it's too easy.

All the sciences are different to each other so saying you may be good at one science but crap at another, but chemistry is what I think i'm best at.

Do the past papers and you'll do fine.

EDIT: Oh yeah, it doesn't mean shit if you're going onto year 12. The only time I think that they might be used is for Univerity early entry and even then I'm not sure to what extent. Study so you can have a mark you can be proud of, obviously,m but don't think that this is the most important test of your life. You'll be doing that in under two years ;)

And then again at University.

Maths was easiest. I got A+s, took extension classes, top spot in both, and I never studied for them. Ever.
So I have no idea how to study properly now that I'm at uni. I usually just read through my notes the night before an exam, that works pretty well.

Seriously? What leevel/grade are you in, because Maths typically proves the most difficult.
I'm doing my GCSEs, but I've always been good at maths. I could probably go straight ahead into an A-level class.

That's about the biggest piece of advice I can give you, and THAT GUY beat me to it!
If you're going to ask for tips, and then stick around here, it will only get progressively harder to pull away from the site.
LEAVE NOW, BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

In response to the poll: Micro-Electronics has a pretty 95% floating next to it.

As to studying... I generally avoid studying. I do my best to pay attention during the lessons and when I have that subject again I refresh it by looking through my notes in the morning. Works pretty good as long as I don't get sick and have to stay home.
The key is understanding what they teach you. If you don't know the thought behind a formula it will be a disaster to remember.

You retain 20% of what you hear, 80% of what you read and 100% of what you write. If you want to learn something, write it down. Just the very act of writing it down helps your memory. Compile everything that you need to know for your exams and write it down (typing is okay). Then do it a second time. Then do the exam. You will pass.
