Feeling pretty annoyed at myself - my core 2 mock came back and I actually got a worse mark than I did last summer. Half of it was stupid mistakes - my teacher said if I hadn't made those I would have easily got an A. Definitely shows that even though I find the content easy now I shouldn't be complacent. I'll keep working at past papers and maybe work through slower to try and avoid this in the future.
On the plus side, I feel well prepared for the EMPA task one tomorrow. I've gone back over my notes for reflexes, the nervous system, nervous impulses and synaptic transmission. Rewritten some notes super short hand, tested myself, memorised the reflex arc with some acronyms (Seven Really Sexy Irish Men Enter Rapidly anyone?) and then made sure I know the processes for resting potentials, action potentials and synapses, as well as memorising what can effect nervous transmission and why reflexes are important. I've thought about questions that could come up based on past papers and planned answers, especially focusing on the 2015 paper as it's a similar style practical.
34 days, or 0 days if I count the Empa!
