40 days to 4As

This is a thread just for my own motivation which will be updated everyday before I sleep.
From tomorrow there will be 40 days till my exams(excluding C1).
I will put in 100 hours minimum for each subject.
I will get the grades I need so I can get the predicted grades I need to get into medicine.
Currently working at:
- Maths C1:A C2:B M1:B
- Chemistry A/B in one unit, not started revising the other so probably a C overall
- Biology probably an E as haven't done any revision for it
- Physics A in one unit and have not started revising the other so probably a C overall

Day 1: A whole day of C2 past paper questions :angry:, have come to the realisation that I won't need 90 more hours for maths.
Maths: 10/100 hours done
Biology: 0/100 hours done
Chem: 0/100 hours done
Phy: 0/100 hours done

Day 2:
A tiring day of learning biology flashcards, covered about 25% of the course which isn't too bad. If I can cover all of it in 40 hours I'll have around 60 hours to do past papers or shall I do it as I go along? Currently nothing more is going in and I feel if I sleep now I can fit an extra hour in tomorrow rather than be tired in the morning.
Maths: 10/100 hours
Biology: 9/100 hours
Physics:0/100 hours
Chem: 0/100 hours

Day 3: Did a bit more of learning biology and did past paper questions for the 30% course I have covered from 7 of the 9 past papers in the old specification getting above the A grade percentage marks needed, leaving the last 2 papers for nearer the exam and then got sick of biology so did some chemistry revision, doing part of module 3(unit 2 in old spec) and doing past paper questions just for those topics from 3 past papers. Biology is the longest thing ever but the grade boundaries are low and managing to get As for 30% of course after just spending 10 hours without it being covered in class shows that anyone can do it.
Maths: 10/100 hours
Biology: 15.5/100 hours
Chemistry 2.5/100 hours
Physics 0/100 hours

Do you guys think 100 hours for each one is enough?


Good luck!! I'm starting properly today too. 100 hours is definitely enough i don't even think I'll do 50 hours per subject. :biggrin:
