Sapp: Well, you have someone here who failed her triple sciences so badly school forced me to do double the second year of my GCSEs. Phff. But... as someone who has experienced both types of syllabuses, I do think double is easier - not only because, as Niph said, there's a lot less to learn, but because the actual logic of it is also easier to grasp; there's much less detail and you travel at such a slower speed (that was my school though; at my school, the triple science was like a rollercoaster, and the double like a merry-go-round; the difference was unbelievable). It made a whole lot of difference for me in chemistry, because I had too many numbers in chemistry in triple, but I got to double and we had none of it, which I was so grateful for.
However, this may not all apply to you as I (and I'm sure Niph too) did the old syllabus for science; they've changed it into modules now, haven't they? You should do the GCSE over two years rather than one. God, that must suck. sad Apparently it's harder. And I found the normal one hard enough as it was.
What advice should I give you then about taking/dropping subjects... It doesn't really matter how many GCSEs you get as long as you get eight at least, if your GCSEs are really good - like, straight As/A*s. There's no point in doing more if you're gonna get less marks. For example, my school asked me to do the right thing, because they wanted me to get A*s, which I did. With triple, I probably wouldn't have. I'm glad I dropped because at the end of the day I got better results because of it. No point in getting one more GCSE if it's gonna be a bad one, if you ask me.
Also, I had a Chinese GCSE, so maybe do that? Because that one is soooo easy, and an easy GCSE. Makes up for that third science, and you gained a language! 3nodding
