How many exams has everyone got left?

I've got 8 exams -> 4 maths, 3 physics and 1 history.
2/10 exams finished atm.

Crazy in just over 3 weeks we won't ever touch A levels again.
I'm going to miss 6th form but can't wait for Uni aswell. :smile:


11 left (5 maths, 2 chem, 2 bio, 2 physics), had one maths so far. Literally can't wait to start exams feel like this week was just a week of waiting for exams (ofc with lots of revision thrown in!)
What I'm most looking forward to is people asking me out and me not having to cancel/feel guilty about it!! Haven't really had a summer "off" since end of year 10 so it's been three years of being "too busy" for me... Actually so excited :')

Is anyone else on the verge of an emotional & mental breakdown? Been up all night revising, it's now 6am, 4/6ths through doing revision cards for history and still have to do them for another two subjects then learn them and do essay plans but it's taking a lifetime and there's so much to do in like 2/3 weeks and I thought I started in ok time but now I've realised I've been prioritising my first exam and my insurance uni isn't that much of an insurance and now I'm telling you all my life story and oh my gosh I think I'm going to have a meltdown, feel like I'm having a mid life crisis :cry2::cry2::cry2::cry2:
what exam board are you doing history with?? I'm feeling your pain right now
do you ever think there's seriously no point in even trying any more
I wanna get into uni but I'm not gonna. get the grades man, no way

Well if you don't try, there's definitely no way you will

If you try, there's always a chance

So what have you got to lose by trying

Quick question (I'll use a really simple example).

Exam 1 : 69 UMS
Exam 2: 71 UMS

That is a B overall, right?

My friend is telling me it doesn't work like that.

Assuming the exams are out of 100, yes.

Thanks, he was telling me that the UMS is rounded down so , either 60 or 70. Made me re-think my whole exam targets.

No, they're added together as they are.

It's getting to that time of year again where I hate everyone. I should come with a warning sign around exam season. It's really bad. Not sure how to control my stress levels though :/

It'll be alright! In a few weeks it will all be over! Just take a step back, breathe and plan out what you need to do! Don't plough on if you're feeling frazzled, especially if you're having a mental breakdown! Give your mind a rest and start fresh! Hang in there I'm sure you'll do brilliantly :-)
