"My friend's daughter (Donna) moved from a grade D in her mock GCSE's in November, to a grade B in her final exam - Not bad for someone doing the intermediate paper!"

Steve, age 37 from the West Midlands(Parent's friend)

"I would just like to say that your service is excellent. I am 16 and taking GCSE's this summer. Your service has and is still helping me learn about the vital things I need to know. It is better than other online revision services I have used because it loads very quickly, is easy to use and is never unavailable due to too many people using the service."

Matthew, age 16 from Middlesex (Student)

"This is a brilliant idea. My daughter has reached the level she hopes to achieve in her sats next week, which has boosted her confidence no end. It has outlined problem areas which we can concentrate on. It is more exciting on the internet - rather than sitting in front of text books - much easier to get the children to try the test at home this way. THANK YOU"

Jane, age 36 from Grimsby (Parent)

"I think that this service is great. Please tell me as and when more Subjects will be available in this way, Thank you"

Adrian, age 15 from Warwick (Student)

"I am 14 years old and am currently doing my year 10 exams. I found this site very usefull for revising for the exams because it gave me an idea of the questions that I would be asked. The site also helped me see how to achieve full marks in the exam."

Laura, age 14 from Hartlepool (Student)

"This is an excellent service. One thing which would improve it would be if we could either download the entire practice papers to the computer and print out offline - or print them out in a more print friendly form. For example, in the English papers the background is in grey. Both my children are finding this service very useful. Next year maybe we could have some languages?"

Hazel from Colchester (Parent)

"I would like to congratulate you on a very successful and useful revision programme that has aided my GCSE revision appropriatley .Thanks again"

Alan, age 27 from Corby

"Absolutely brilliant! Very motivating for my child! Give us more!!!!!Would be even better if it could be personalised and feedback given for individuals or extra revision for weak areas for an individual... is this possible???? eg if individualised then if the pupuil is weak on fractions then extra work could be given"

Mrs S Cole, age 38 from Moseley (Parent)

"I like this service and it really helps to revise, especially as I like being on the Internet The only way this could really be made better us by making the most common GCSE exams revisible via the internet, and then more could be revised in a similar, helpful, yet very relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere"

Robert, age 16 from Liverpool (Student)

"I am impressed! Good range of work covered (no linear equations/inequalities) I like the interaction, sound effect, and the scoring. Also the test papers and scoring. Graph work especially sound. Pages loaded quite quickly, and were then complete. Look forward to syllabus being completed!"

David, age 59 from Cirencester (Teacher)

"I found this very good it helped me a lot!I will be doing my s.a.t's in a couple of weeks time."

"I think this service is great for preparing to take the National Tests when you're still in the year below and I really enjoyed seeing what the tests might be like."

Nicholas, age 10 from Penkhull (Student)

"I have been using the GCSE exercises with a Basic Skills adult class as revision/consolidation to some of the past year's work. The KS2 exercises are useful also. Being able to show work taken from the net gives an extra dimension to resources and lends credibility to their work. I am a key skills tutor working at The Need To Know Centre, Swadlincote, South Derbyshire"

Marjorie from Burton on Trent (Teacher)

"What a great service, night before my exams, and very easy to use, I feel like paying you guys a tip."

Matt, age 16 from Devon (Student)

"I found this highly useful, especially as the level of detail is what is required for a higher tier candidate - something which is rarely found on this kind of service. Thanks! (A bit of an ego booster on my part - having done my revision so well . . . )"

Kenan, age 15 from Northumberland Park(Student)

"I think that it is great being able to print off tests for ourselves! I think that you should take little tests for one certain thing (e.g, equations)then we would beable to test ourselves on them. Also more examples on things would help alot too. Also another point would maybe to do other subjects which I have to do for my summer exams like, Geography, History, and more! That would be really great!!"

Sophie, age 13 from Harrogate (Student)

"EXCELLENT!I think it's brilliant.It has helped me a lot already. "

Nicola, age 13 from Manchester (Student)

"I think your tests are very good, the only problem is that the font is too large as it takes up a lot of paper printing all of the pages out and some of the graphs get cut in half.Besides that, it's great. Thanks for helping me with my GCSE Maths Revision."

Dave, age 16 from Kent (Student)

"What a really useful site for the kids. I was surprised at its level of interactivity."

John, age 39 from Northolt (Parent)

"I think the site is brilliant! I am doing my GCSEs in a couple of weeks and I just came to have a look and it is really good. I am working my way through the maths and it has really helped me revise the main topics. I am then going to move onto the English."

Claire, age 16 from Norfolk (Student)

Sara, age 14 from Saffron Walden (SATs Student)

"I think that this is a very handy website. I am taking my SAT's in 2 day's and I've used it a lot to improve my maths skills. Also my best mate Phil, is taking his GCSE's soon and I told him about it and have passed on some of your info on GCSE's and practice papers for him, which has helped him a lot. I shall use it again in the future for my GCSE's. Cheers, keep it going!!"

Charlotte, age 16 nr Preston, Lancs (Student)

"I am a maths teacher always looking for different ways for my students to revise, use their computer as an aid to improve their maths and to use it for something other than games. You have produced an excellent site with good exam questions for all levels of the syllabus that we teach. It is nice to be able to use this on a free site and have the facility to be able to do the questions off-line and then link back up to see the answers worked out in an exam form. I hope to see more questions in the future. Brilliant!!"

Mrs Sissons, from Sheffield (Teacher)

"Easy to use, and very accessible. I found it very useful, especially telling you what grade you would have got. You could develop this much further, like offering Business Studies, French, History etc."

Andrew, age 16 from Wales (Student)

"Fantastic and very relevant, especially for the kids undergoing the tests at the moment."

Mr Gilbert, age 35 from Kent (Maths Teacher)

Nicola, age 16 from Swindon (Student)

"As a thirty something parent I think this is a good format. I found it quite useful from my perspective. I haven't been to school for years and I scored 74% in one of the maths options. I think my 13 year old son will find it very useful."

Malcolm, the West Midlands (Parent)

"The maths and English GCSE revision pages are excellent. They are easy to learn from and the exam papers are really good."

Natalie, from Burton on Trent (Student)

"I have recently been using BBC Bitesize revision for my revision for my GCSE exams. That was until my friend recommended freeserve!! This site must be the best site I have visited for revision. Your science exam papers helped me a great deal and your revision material represents the difficulty which could be possible in an exam. Not only that - but unlike Bitesize Revision, your site doesn't freeze up and take forever to use!! Thank you very much for this site!!"

Alex, age 16 from Truro (Student)

"I am very impressed with this site regarding the amount of information given for the GCSE subjects listed. I have also visited Bitesze and although there is an excellent chioce of subjects, I must say I really do prefer the Freeserve site because of the fact that one can print out superb test papers and not only that, can print out the marking sheet too. Obviously this is a pretty new site and you have worked as fast as you can, but I must say I would have liked to have seen more subjects listed so that I could have downloaded more test papers."

Philip, age 16 from Surrey (Student)
