Thank you again! :ahee: God, I hope I meet my offer - the literature thread did scare me a bit because I saw people discussing quite advanced concepts I had never covered in class... But I think it went okay regardless. :grin:

I haven't looked at the thread, but don't worry about it either way :nah: you don't need advanced concepts if your interpretations aren't about advanced concepts - both can be just as valid :tongue:
@Gingerbread101 Congratulations on finishing them all! :h:

After the last haul, I'm finally finished with all things A Level...

My Language exam went well, and while I don't think I included enough of one of the assessment objectives, I think I've got a solid A (which despite my target being an A*, is all I was really hoping for). I guess we'll see on Results Day whether I did manage to get an A*, but either way I'll be happy.

For Literature I really liked the paper and everything went smoothly! I'm hoping I did enough to get an A* in that.

Honestly, I really think doing this blog has helped me revise. I've revised way more than I ever expected to, and for the first time in my exams, I've gone in feeling confident and came out feeling like my revision has paid off. I don't think I've ever known so much about my subjects! This blog has really motivated me to study, even to the point where I'd think "I have to make sure I have something to post!"

Russia: DONE
Gen St 1: DONE
Gen St 2: DONE
Gen St 3: DONE
History: DONE
Gen St 4: DONE
Language: DONE
Literature: DONE
Planning the rest of my holiday

I'm planning on getting back into bullet journal-ing to add some structure to my summer so I make the most of it.

Here's my first little plan for tomorrow and Tuesday, I hope you guys like it!

Now my studying has officially finished, I want to try and help you guys! Let me know if you want me to make any printables, to give you tips for motivation, whatever!

Update 18/02/2016

Results Day didn't really go as planned...

I got AAB (with the B in English Language), with my A in History being 1 mark off an A* and English Language being dragged down by a D in the exam. My offer for Durham was A*AA, and York was AAA but they still accepted me. I was very surprised about the D, so I'm getting the English Language exam remarked as well as the History to hopefully gain 4 marks in English and 1 mark in History to bring my grades up to A*AA and then hopefully Durham will reconsider me.

Russia: 87 UMS, 76/100, A
Gen St 1: 94 UMS, 55/65, A
Gen St 2: 100 UMS, 55-65/65, A
Gen St 3: 70 UMS, 40/70, B
History: 107 UMS, 97/120, A
Gen St 4: 82 UMS, 48/70, A
Language: 70 UMS, 49/96, D
Literature: 87 UMS, 53/80, B

My coursework was my saving grace really, so I hope you guys have done better than me!

Glad York still let you in @gingerbread101.

Best of luck with the remarks. And so sorry :console: :hugs:.
Sorry about the unexpected results. Well done anyway for doing this well :smile: You've kept probably the best study blog on here, and from all your pictures you seem to have worked SO hard. I really hope it all works out.

Take care

Thanks :redface: I really wish things had paid off a bit more... perhaps I'm just not as good in exam situations as I used to be
It will be okay, those are still brilliant results <3
