Lessons & tips: work very hard, revise as much as possible and believe in yourself.
I had a hard time getting through these exams, I used to revise into the early hours of the morning and got very stressed before each one, believing I couldn't do it. Be realistic with the amount of revision you do and the time you do it - have a 'cut off' time at night and don't work past it. I didn't do this but was advised to and looking back it seems a sensible idea. :) And believe in yourself.
Resources: CGP books were absolutely priceless to me during my GCSE exam period and I am planning to use them again to help me through my A-Levels as an extra resource.
