Coming out on 'TheOtherSide.' with egg-cellent GCSEs...

I really don't know what you're talking about by my work ethic - I think I've done about 10 hours' worth of revision altogether. Your blog looks great, by the way! I'm going to be taking an hour off TSR now, though, so I'll reply later

No, you seem so motivated to do well! Well done on the 10 hours - pretty sure that's much more than I've done
And good luck, since I guess that the hour break is for revision

It was... and then I ended up going through work experience stuff

same, same I keep getting distracted by work experience

Have you gotten a place anywhere yet? I'm guessing not?

I think I've managed to get a day and a half shadowing GPs
You?

Nothing so far
I guess finding engineering work experience is just too difficult (or I'm doing something wrong).

Thank you very much! It's great to see that you've got such a great work ethic - I'm trying to get more motivated, since this week is actually the first week I've properly bothered to revise (if I'd prepared more for my mocks, I might have done a lot better). What I'm finding is helping me is the TSR study session thread (http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=3896671 if you haven't seen it yet).

What do you find keeps you most motivated?

Most of my motivation has just been thinking about what getting good grades can lead to but at the moment I have a bit extra to spur me on because of school. Recently, we've had some new teachers and one in particular doesn't seem to like me and gives me the impression that she thinks I have an attitude, even though I've never been in trouble. So basically at the minute I am trying to work my socks off so I can return to the school in a few years time and prove to them how wrong they were. I know I probably shouldn't take it to heart but it seems to be a good boost for motivation.

No it's true, I heard that engineering work experience is really hard. Medical stuff is so hard as well because of age & confidentiality so I'll probably do most of mine next summer :/

Well, it's very clear that you're proving those teachers wrong anyway, so I suppose that's a good thing

If you carry on like this, there's honestly no reason for you to worry at all.

I'll be so relieved once I've finch-ed all this.

are you doing all of this starting now??

Thank you. The only reason I have to worry is because of the medical stuff I have can be very unpredictable and it's a big concern, considering I just found out that the school have been unaware of it all this time, despite having meetings and everything

Anyways, rant over - back to revision

Nah, forgot to mention - I've finished bio notes and I'm almost done with TKAM. Yeah... there's no way I'd get through all of that in three hours.

yeah I was thinking that's a lot to do good luck with what you have left

It took them this long to realise you had a medical condition? Hope everything gets sorted soon.

I hope revision goes well!

Thanks Hope your studying goes well, if you're doing that now

I'm taking a "break" has this blog helped in terms of motivation??
