What to do after exams???

This sounds like a really stupid question but I have seen so many people saying what they will do - I really don't know!
I don't just want to watch TV for 12 weeks, and I will get a job but I don't turn 16 until August.
Any suggestions for new hobbies to take up? I really want to spend my time productively and learn something new!
Thank you in advance!

You could take up a sport, learn an instrument, join a local club, read about topics which interest you, stargaze etc :smile:

Have you got any plans to go on holiday or go to any festivals??
If you do that will definitely take up the time :redface:

Otherwise you could take up cooking/baking or a new sport

Hope this helps xx

I have heard they are much harder than gcse's. But surely if you start working from day 1 you should be fine?

I am only going to Scotland for a week. But I will try and take up a new sport!
Revision and coursework has been so time consuming... I literally feel like it has taken over my life!

Thanks for the advice- very helpful!x

Exactly what I did, and you can surprisingly learn an awful lot from this. Don't regret a single second of it 😂😊

I think I am going to carry on learning Spanish. I finished my GCSE exam in it a few weeks ago, and I suprisingly miss it! It is really rewarding to learn a language, and I do not want to throw away 5 years of learning it!

Thank you! :smile:

I am hoping to study Biology, Chemistry, Maths and Economics. I am actually really excited to do Economics because I took Business Studies at GCSE and I have loved it!
Do you think these A levels are hard and what changes have been made?

Maybe if I do watch TV for 12 weeks I will be more motivated to do work in September!
