Done a mix of Further Maths and C1 (mostly integrals and differentials) questions, learning how to calculate normals and tangents of an equation, and a bit of cubics. Did a practice paper on Physics and Maths Tutor, and actually managed to get a low C, after a few days of work
•
Biology B1: Of no concern, I know most of the concepts pretty well, and most of my dropped marks were silly errors, like forgetting to include a detail or a conclusion (blah and the consequences of this are blah)
•
Biology B2: My weakness was question 6 on this paper. Up until then, the paper was pretty good, but then this question came like a punch in the face. I hadn't prepared for it at all. Therefore, I am planning on, tommorrow, creating a mind-map potentially with a flow-chart of substance movement throughout a plant. I shall also prepare model answers, along with that.
•
Chemistry C1: Not so much knowledge problems here, mainly being too vague in my answers and, similar to B1, forgetting to draw conclusions after making statements.
•
Chemistry C2: Did pretty well, but there was a specific 6 marker that I answered quite poorly. It was discussing the structure of Sodium Chloride and Water, and relating the structure to electricial conductance. In hindsight, I should have gone to the absolute basics, and discussed the structure of a simple covalent compound, relating that to an ionic compound, and drawing conclusions thusly. Tomorrow, I am therefore planning to analyse my answer, identify what I left out, and write a model answer.
•
Physics P1: I got a C in this test, and it was the worst I felt after leaving an exam, ever. Even worse than my French Listening, astoundingly. There are too many questions that I got wrong to list here, having got exactly half marks. I will, however, concentrate on: red shift, and why it occurs; How P and S Waves travel through the Earth, and what that tells us about the structure of the Earth and how transformers help the national grid to become more efficient. I'll probably end up just redoing the paper, which was the Ad. SAM. :P
•
Physics P2: Of no concern, as B1.
•
English - scanned through a Macbeth revision guide, and looked over my Anthology notes so far
•
Further Maths - did some work on tangents and normals, as well as more calculus. Have a notepad full of questions and solutions, which I am planning to annotate.
•
Maths - Practiced some trig, probably my weakest topic, but I'm pretty confident with it now.
•
Science - Compiled some notes on this Google Doc, with some notes on where I fell down on C2, P1 and B2. Haven't got around to do C1 yet, although I do plan on doing that. I am now in the process of looking over the notes, and maybe subsequently testing myself. I'm unlikely to start Further Additional until I get Core and Additional down to the detail that I wish to achieve.

French - No progress, today.
