EDIT - No wait, apparently everyone does science exams in Yr 10 now.

I don't think modular science exists anymore, just the new thing with exams in both years like you're both doing.

I have the test the same time as you, but it's not my first. I've already had a Maths one.

Did you get a booklet to read through for it?

Everyone does Science GCSE in year 10 now instead of coursework.

I think.

I think it's just the test we've got.
We get tested on say 3 sections and we're given a booklet to read about them from, then we have to answer the questions.

the reason why theres exams in YR10 is cos the government education department are a load of useless drug dealers who sit around fucking things up as much as possible. anyhoo, the syllabus is new and it is based around specific modules rather than general areas, and so can be split up easier, much like a college course is sometimes

Gay! I did all my proper three hour GCSEs in year 10. :3 None of this "multiple exam, let's split it up to make it even easier" bullshit for me.

I think sometimes it can be beneficial though.
