Tuesday 09/02/16Feeling meh today. In maths, we got our S1 chapter 6 (correlations) test results back and I only got
81% I wouldn't usually be terribly disappointed with a mark in the 80s but literally every one else in my class got 100%, even people who didn't revise or do all of the textbook exercises! Even though I know that the marks I lost were due to silly mistakes, I still feel stupid.
In psychology, we got our Memory and Research Methods assessments back and my final grade is
84%. It went down because we peer-marked each others tests yesterday and then the teacher checked if they had been marked properly and it turned out that the girl who marked mine had been too nice. I did however, get full marks (12/12) on the essay question which I am happy about! To improve, I definitely need to freshen up my understanding of research methods and practice plenty of questions on it!
The mock exam resit in physics went okay, but I don't even want to think about all of the silly mistakes i've made. I definitely need to start putting more time into physics.
When I got home from sixth form, I did about an hour and a half's worth of revision for an upcoming test we have on electricity in physics on Thursday. I made some colourful summary mind maps and tomorrow I will answer some past exam questions! I'm going to spend about half an hour writing some notes on chapter 7 (Regression) of S1 now and then i'll go to sleep.
Goodnight!
