Advantages: Easy to use, colourful, makes revising fun!
Disadvantages: Not all subject topics are covered

I was predicted high grades in all subjects of my GCSE's so I felt the pressure was on to live up to what was expected of me. The problem is, like most people, I find revision is pretty boring. We were recommended a few different websites from school, but this one has to be my favourite. (And, best of all, it makes revising quite good fun - and easy!) It covers loads of the subjects from the curriculum. (Art, Business Studies, Citizenship, Design ...

Advantages: Interactive, easy to understand and sometimes even... fun! Oh, and the Survival Kit!
Disadvantages: Even *remotely* obscure subjects aren't covered.

Well, here I am writing an op for Ciao when really I ought to be revising for my English, Maths and two Spanish exams I have tomorrow. Yes, it's that time of the year again - time for the mock exams! Then in five months time, it's the real thing! And will I be playing on the internet in five months time? Well, the answer is probably yes! I am not a lazy and stupid student - no honestly I'm not! Because what I've been doing on the internet is actually ...
...tell my mum that)! I've been on the BBC bitesize revision website and this is the place to be! The difference in my grades before and after revising on this site for Science is amazing... I was told today that potentially I could get an A* in Science and Science is one of my worst subjects! Revising through this website makes revision almost fun!

Disadvantages: Can be boring!

The online BBC Bitesize website is very good for learning the basics very quickly.

The website covers the following subjects: >Business Studies >Design Technology >English >English Literature >French >German >Geography >History >ICT >Mathematics >Music >Physical Education ...
...In each subject area you will find the subject is broken down in to around 4 - 8 sub-sections. In each sub-section are more sections which contain a PowerPoint type presentation whereby you must read through the pages at your own pace. At the end of each section, there is a small test with 10 questions. These are very basic but at least you can see how much you have remembered and what areas of the subject you need to cover again. All of the subjects ... Read review

Advantages: Lots of information, clear, informative
Disadvantages: Can be offputting, not always the info you want

I'm a teenager, and as most people know, work is not top on my list. I see excess work as pointless, and find, of course, revision the dullest and most boring thing in the world. But with Bitesize, this changes. I can sit down by the computer, having fun whilst revising! Upon every page is a range of different images, as well as a lot of informative content and a great community section. You can also ask the site any questions you may have about ...
...expecting a but!) there are a few problems, as there always are. As you can see, when browsing around the site, only part of the curriculum is actually covered. There are also (as many subjects as there may be) not all the subjects taught actually on the site, such as Latin (one of my favouritte subjects). The subjects covered are: Business Studies, Design & Technology, English, English Literature, French, German, Geography, History, ICT, Irish, ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, quite colourful- worked for me!!
Disadvantages: You tell me, I can't find one..........still searching...

I am a lazy student who is now at university and I think that the GCSE bitesize revision website is a blessing in disguise for all GCSE students. I know people get the whole, “GCSEs are easy” from older students, but I can appreciate that they are the hardest things to those that are sitting them at the time. I found the website easy to use. It made revision more entertaining and easy, in that all the issues are addressed and especially in math, ...
...from it having colours (which most text books fail to have), it has pictures and animations which makes the work seem less boring and a bit more entertaining. When you enter in to the site, you choose your subject, a topic and then a sub-topic. If you read the texts and do the test at the end, you will be very surprised at how much you know. Also included on the website and even on the videos ( I know that they come on very early but it that’s what ... Read review
