Well there goes my #1 VGC Buddy...:(
My thoughts exactly. I share almost the same problems as you (maths + stats GCSEs in June AHHHHHHH), but I liked in the half terms more.
I hate to be the bad example here but come on people lol are GCSEs really that difficult, it's only one day and if you're not a dumbass one day should make absolutely no difference. It's worth it, honestly.
This may be coming from someone who spent the entire GCSE period playing Halo 3 and while I did end up getting more As than A*s, hitting up the Pokémon half way through the exam period's meant a whole lot more to me than any slightly better (and basically worthless) GCSE grades. Besides, I probably would've had those As anyway.

I think i'm in the minority here that actually prefers the current date of it. Last year nats were bang in the middle of my A Levels, which was horrendous timing in hindsight, because I spent much more time preparing my team than doing work.
Now I'm on a reading week, I had an exam last week, but it was nowhere near as important as the ones in may/june where it would have been if it kept the usual timing.
but yeah
5 SLEEPS TILL BHAM YEAHHHHHHH

I can only agree with the new date, although it didn't really affect me last year, as I was on a gap year, this year it would have fallen right towards the end of the Uni year, so I'd either be panicking about getting my work in, or busy moving my stuff back home.
6 days is absolutely nothing. Before I know it, I'll be heading to the train station. Absolute mayhem.

Tbf It's a resit, so I need the revision Day. Based on my mocks if I don't significantly improve on the module, the top I can get at the end is an A. My school says you need A* at GCSE to do A Level (which I need for a Uni!) so basically I have no choice in this. (They iz gettin harder btw).
BUT NEVER FEAR! Italy VGC Is here! Easter Holiday here I come!
On a serious note though someone please beat the "Spanish Armada". Which brings me to my second point, didn't the Spanish Armada get, well, beaten back when they tried to invade? 0_o.

The Spanish armada did get beaten... but almost entirely by storms and the rocky coastline. Unfortunately for a lot of poor English fellas, Birmingham is about as far from the sea as you get and we're gonna be taking heavy casualties from MIS AMIGOS LOS HABAKIANOS!!! SPANISH ARMY JAJAJAJA ;3
