year 13 gyg journal : trying not to become an academic victim 🤡📖

hello everyone!

I've seen a lot of other people do these so felt inspired to make my own.

my subjects: aqa a level politics, french, history + epq
current predicted grades (november '23): ABB
grades I would like to get in 2024: A*AA
uni update (february '24): 5/5 offers :biggrin:

goals for the year:

•

achieve my dream grades

•

start believing in myself again

•

revise little and often rather than cramming everything at the end

•

remember to still have some fun with friends


thank you coming on this journey with me :smile:

today I am hoping to:
- catch up on a french lesson that I missed about alternative prison sentences
- continue revising for my french test tomorrow (reading, listening and writing on all year 12 topics)
- plan and write a british history essay "how effectively did the National Govt deal with the economic problems?"
- review teacher feedback from some pieces of work on political ideologies (conservatism and liberalism)
