Drama isn't easy.
I do GCSE Drama, the first year is just games ect, maybe a few improvisations ect. but this year [we've been back to school for 3 days] we've allready started out coursework, we get video'd ect. It's alot harder then people think. Acting isn't just pretending to be someone else. You have to try and feel like the person your impersonating or your who act just falls apart. Anyway, Drama is a hard subject but its fun :)

I am doing Drama GCSE but I havn't had a lesson yet was meant to yesterday but we had to stay in are forms (ew) an those nine people are very stupid , didn't they read the infomation on each subject which says how much coursework ect.. goes to the final grade and that ''/

Im in my second year of GCSE drama (year 11), and trust me it is no "easy" GCSE. Its actually one of the hardest. The coursework isn't hard, but theres alot of it, its the exam that gets people though. 2 essays in 2 hours =X.

But i enjoy it, and its my favourite subject :)

Standard Grade Drama is a little different to GCSE Drama but works at a same level. We had several topics to learn (Mime, Stage Management, Costume etc..) then we got a mini test on it. Then we had about 3 essays to write up, 2 prelims (1 acting, 1 writing) then do more work and finally have the proper final exam. An improvisation made up by your group which we done in 6 weeks and then 2 writing papers which were similar to an essay.

The marking scheme is a little weird.. We got marked all the time for Creating & Presenting, Teamwork and Knowledge and Understanding. On a whole Drama (whether GCSE, Standard Grade or Higher) is enjoyable but very hard.

I did Drama when i did my GCSE's
I loved it, but High schools idea about drama and theatre and stuff is a bit messy.
I realised this because im taking it in college and it make so much more sense.

Drama is not an easy ride. And it is a very important subject.
It boosts your confidence so much!

Drama ties in with pretty much every job these days.
