Day 4Further MathsTo keep it short, I struggled with Binomial Distribution a LOT in class and I pretty much didn't understand a thing because I couldn't remember any of it. However I managed to learn it in my free but I still need to practice questions. We're due to complete the first 2 chapters of M2 (there are 5) by this week. FP1 is more slow but we're going to start FP2 whilst finishing FP1. It's not exactly as efficient as I'd hoped but heyo.
So I need to practice S2 Binomial Distribution questions and recap the first two chapters of M2 and the first 2 chapters of FP1 this weekend.
PhysicsWe've done a few experiments and questions on Simple Harmonic Motion. But other than that not much progress which is really really irritating me and I might have to start working ahead. I need to practice questions on SMH and Circular Motion this weekend too.
Computer ScienceGot my program working on the college computers and I'm now going to complete the Analysis section of the write-up before the end of September. I'm aiming for breathing space so that I can prepare for admissions tests. Aside from this, not much else happening, I'm too focused on meeting deadlines at the moment.
EPQI have come up with a title that I think will be sufficient and I need to fill in all the relevant logs and paperwork for this. The deadline isn't till next week so I've left that for a later date.
UCAS/UniversityMy application is about ready to be sent off now. I'm just dabbling with my personal statement. I need to submit it tomorrow. It'll be nice to finally get that off my chest along with my assignments for Computer Science! Then I can start the next week with a fresh mind knowing I've met the deadlines and all I need to do is keep up with all the work!
In other news Oxford is #1 in the world university ranking which I think is amazing... to think that someone like me (university isn't a normal option from my background) can apply to the world's best university is incredible... doubt I'll get in but I'll give it a shot!
Thanks for reading!
Fairly short, because I have deadlines incoming tomorrow. I've already met one; I literally just submitted my assignment. I'll be adding some subject-specific tips in my next post!
