So I'm quite the procrastinator and I've on started high intensive revision a couple of days ago. During my mocks in Feb I got A*AB with no revision but I'm aware that these are only mocks and it may have been easier than the real exams. I'm aiming for AAB but really I need ABB and I have exactly 6 weeks left. Ik that's there's no point in worrying as I can't turn back time but is this a realistic goal or have a screwed myself over?
Don't quote me on it, but i've heard mocks are harder level if not the same level as exams. 6 weeks is a long time, and it's NEVER too late to revise but tbh from what ur saying it sounds like you'll be fine. Good luck!
Depends on your subjects. 3 science subjects? Probably not.
Although you could still bag a good grade if you sacrifice literally every aspect of your social life and dedicate many hours (up to 10) a day. 6 weeks is a really short amount of time for A levels.

not entirely true. if OP managed to get above her target with no/minimal revision, i doubt she needs to ‘sacrifice’ social life to get there. plus it depends on how much she already knows, which I’m assuming is above average given she got a B without preparing properly
i think 6 weeks would be enough if you planned your days well even if you did six hours (say 2 for each subject) a day, that’d be 42 hrs a week - 252 hrs in 6 weeks - 84 for each subject 10 hrs a day is a lot when there’s only 24 and you sleep for some of them so i say plan ur revision effectively and take sufficient breaks luckily (hopefully) it’s revision and not learning content from scratch, i think you’ll be ok :]

While this is true, it largely depends on the quality of mocks they took. How easy/hard they were in comparison to the real exams

Thanks for the reply! I do 3 essay subjects so you could say it's much easier to waffle as we're marked higher on analysis than content. I am prepared to sacrifice my social life though. I've had a good one up until now and I'm ready to be focused on my exams.
