My year 10 gyg :)

Hi, welcome to my year 10 Gyg!

I hope it isn’t too late to start, but I’ve decided to make a Gyg!

What subjects am i studying?
-English Lit 📖
-English Lang 📚
-Maths 🧮
-Biology 🧫
-Chemistry 🧪
-Physics 🧲
-History 🏛️
-Computer Science 💻
-3D Design 📐
-German 🇩🇪

What are my goals?
-My main goal for this year is to survive my mocks, and get good grades in the process (hopefully 7’s, 8’s and 9’s).

-I also want to get better at English Lit and Lang as they are my weakest subjects.

-When I’m older I want to go into a career of either Programming, Architecture or Engineering so I want to work hard to get the GCSE grades i need when it comes to the real thing.

What are my hobbies?
Currently: I play the Guitar 🎸 and Horn 🎵; I’ve started Rubix cubing and I love drawing 🎨

What will i be posting here?
I will be posting:

-Study/homework To-do lists
-my assessment triumphs :smile: and downfalls :frown:
-homework struggles
-my revision timetable
-Study tips

Because I started a bit late I thought that I could make a catch up post!

Assessment triumphs/downfalls
-I’ve done two German tests and I’ve done ‘sehr gut’ in both
-I’ve done a maths test and I somehow got 100%, I was so chuffed! :nyan:
-I’ve done a Computer Science test and I’ve got 81% :smile:
-I also have done an English and History test but I am yet to get those back
-Yesterday I finally caught up with all my 3D Design coursework, so i can now focus on making my model :h: , I will reveal what it is soon


Homework to do list:
-Revise for my next German test by making flashcards on Quizlet
-Do the Physics sheet given in lesson
-Do my Chemistry online homework
-Revise language and structure for English Lang

I’m really happy with how everything’s going, my main secret is putting the time and effort in, and aiming high :smile: I’ve got some other tips too:

-When your doing homework tasks theres nothing wrong with putting a video in the background as long as you concentrate on what your doing, this has helped me get more done in one sitting

-For revision I listen to Lofi beats or ambient music, videos aren’t a good idea as you need to be concentrating on the content. Revision cards, mind maps and blurting have been the most successful methods of revision for me

For Maths I would 100% recommend timing yourself doing past papers and then reviewing where you need to improve. After this I would use a website like Hegarty Maths/Sparx to target specific topics/areas to improve on. Hope this helps! :smile:
