My road to Med School

Second year of A level is underway. I currently have an BMAT exam booked for 02/11 and am learning how to write essays because i am awful.....

My mock results from summer were:
A* Biology
A (AS Maths)
B Chemistry

Obviously i want to improve my B as i wont be going anywhere near to medical school on a B.
I will keep you all posted on my BMAT, my application to med school(interviews etc) and my regular revision to ensure i get the very best grades possible!!!!

Cya tommorow,

I had the same problem with essays (I'm absolutely horrendous at writing) so I just decided to forgo the BMAT, what made you decide to apply to BMAT unis instead of UKCAT ones?
(I also have a GYG if you want check it out https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=5002710&p=74142046#post74142046)

I will check your GYG out, the reason i chose BMAT was simply my ukcat didnt go so well recieving 2510, and with my current GCSE grade profile it wasnt looking good for me :/. Id rather have gotten a better ukcat and not have to touch BMAT but its too late for that haha

Today i received my practice essay back from my friend, apparently im making progress...i dont see it haha. After running through the essay with me i will go on to write another essay, hopefully its going to be better :/. Furthermore i did some OCR A Chemistry revision where i proceeded to attempt a past paper which i will use to further enhance my studies. I prefer to use past papers as it really shows to myself where i am less confident and common points in marks schemes so i can write model answers.

I went on to attempt to do some AQA Biology.... one issue i found ALL THE PAST PAPERS HAVE BEENREMOVED OFF AQA WEBSITE. Not going to lie i am panicking as i said above i rely on past papers...... Oh well i guess i will have to find new ways to study. This is where i am going to look at you reader! Can you help me with some aqa biology revision methods, thanks in advance :smile:

Anyway i have a 5 a side match in an hour where i am in goal, despite being short, wish me luck,

Thank you for reading,
Matt
