The actress has never picked up a prestigious Academy Award despite being nominated four times previously.
This year she is tipped to take home the prize for Best Actress for starring in The Reader.
She said: You know it is nerve wracking. I think its very nerve wracking. OK! It is really scary. I'm very excited but you know its a big moment in anyone's life.
Speaking at a Pre-Oscars bash Winslet said: The fact that I've been through this before seems to make no difference as to the level of nerves. But, I'm very excited."
Good luck Kate!
