You could do today's political climate (the destruction of war - both past and present - is always good. I had a friend who did a perspex box full of bits of paintings and toy soldiers like Jake and Dinos Chapman). Pop art is always a good one to link to anything "of the time" (culture/society/satire/politics etc). But don't go down the Andy Warhol route - far too overused!
A further idea is to take random, gritty polaroid pictures when you're out with your friends at a gig/drinking/clubbing and being indulgent, and do a section on decadence (look at the photography of Amanda de Cadenet and Nan Goldin, also Stella Vine, the former stripper/painter). Do your research and look at their work! It's easy and fun (you don't really have to work too hard) and you could create a cool collage, scribble on the polaroids and do paintings etc. to go with it - a sketchpad maybe of random things you've done of your friends whilst out, like a superficial, bohemian lifestyle thing. You could use it all to contrast with and further highlight the serious issues of today, suffering, war etc, that you would have dealt with previously. I reckon doing something like that would be more off the wall and get you top grades (most people do Andy Warhol I seem to remember). Plus, you'd be using all types of different mediums (sculpture, painting, drawing, photography) so it'd give you a broad range.
Hope this all helps - I got an A* for GCSE art all that time ago!

Long ago when I did my GCSEs I remember that people always got good marks when they played around things like images in reflective surfaces or interesting lighting. Eg a self-portrait of your reflection in a metal teapot, or dramatic lighting on a face. They are fun effects to play with and show you are thinking about perception, light and form.

I did a few art modules already... these were some of my ideas and I used most of them:
"Memories" - your favorite memory...
"A Journey" - a physical journey, mental journey, reincarnation...
"Structures"- of the human body, arcitecture, in nature...
"Safely Contained" - find an idea to go with this
"Contrast" - this can lead to shadow and light...
See the possibilities are endless!
You should take a broad subject and dig deeper and deeper into
it, in other words narrow it down until you cant go on.
Example: Nature, Plants, Trees, leaves...

why don't you illustrate the plot of a book? a guy i knew painted all the pivotal/his favourite moments and characters from the novel Dune. Pick a book you like and do it. It's better than a movie or show because you're required to visualise and imagine the setting, characters, interaction etc.

How about the concept of domination, there is alot of scope here. For example: George and the Dragon, David and Goliath, war etc etc

I did one called "Strange Place" - gave me the scope to illustrate pretty much anything I could think of. Got a good grade too!

Could you take a current affairs theme - global warming perhaps? Or the ongoing debate about Muslim women/the veil?
