    They start tomorrow in the school I teach in.

    If no-one is in a position to answer your question, then they cannot.
    It is quite possible no boardsies have had their music practical yet.

    Good luck with it anyway.

    Aw be patient, it's not an incredibly busy forum you know :)

    The practical isn't about being 100% perfect, it's about being able to take what you learned in music class and showing that in your pieces, so performance is everything, if you stumble or forget something just keep going on don't go back and repeat, and it always helps to make eye contact with the examiner while you're performing (though if you're using sheet music make sure you don't get lost!)

    My brother's LC one is tomorrow and my JC one is on Thursday. Nothing to worry about really:). What intrument/intruments do you play and are you doing sight reading or clapping?

    I had mine the other day. It was easy enough. The examiners wwere really nice. I only made a few mistakes in the first peice but then my nerves began to settle down and I played a little better. Got off class too!
