I guess I shouldnt be so ungrateful then :laugh:
I just thought it was pretty awkwardly timed anyway.

Anywhoo, revision plan for today:
* C2 - solving trigonometic equations
* C2 - trig identities

* C2 - Binomial expansion
* C2 - Recap radians
* Maybe attempt C2 past paper... despite not doing Logs in class yet.
* CHEM2 - Energetics definitions
* BIOL2 - Begin DNA revision
* GEO1 - Begin to make notes from mark schemes.

Quite small topics, besides the biology one and geography, so hopefully won't take too long.
Today :


Chem5 Thermodynamics
Chem5 thermo past exam questions

C3 chapter 6 and mixed exercise
C3 chapter 7 and mixed exercise
BIO4 specimen paper
BIO5 Essay question
C4 Intergration exc 6E

Just curious has anyone started past papers yet for two or more of their subjects?


The only subject I’m doing complete past papers for is Maths.

No, I’m with WJEC and I think the people doing it this Summer have it on 1st June.

Got my message across then. :laugh:

I always did have you pegged as an ungrateful one. :tongue:

I will agree that it isn’t the best timing for you, but I don’t think it’s going to affect your performance or anything.

Where do you guys get the motivation to do so much in a day?! :frown:... Also, Doing my first ever retake and no have no idea whether to just teach myself from the very beginning or just create notes as it seems pretty simple the 2nd time round? (this is BUSS2 AQA btw).. And anyone doing AQA Core 4 maths?.. have you guys started revision for this, ie, going through questions or should i wait and get ahead on core 3 while i can? :smile:
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so little work done... silly hospital appointments :colonhash:

Motivation comes from not doing the same thing for too long, split it up and take breaks whenever you need to.

& If i was doing a resit i'd revise from the very start... just to be entirely sure you don't mess up/do get the grade you wanted.

Exactly this. It's also the reason why I don't like to plan what I'm going to revise as such, but rather decide that I am going to revise and then let my mood guide me. (obviously ensuring that I don't neglect something just because I dislike it, as that is heading for a fail)

Again, exactly this. I would have the 'leave no stone unturned' mentality.

I see. I haven't started any for Maths yet (haven't even revised any topics for it or done any questions for Maths during the Easter break so no point in moving onto past papers yet for me)

I see - I've just been concentrating on other subjects and pretty much been making notes. I haven't started any papers for Maths yet (haven't even revised any topics for it or done any questions for Maths during the Easter break so no point in moving onto past papers yet for me)
