Not updated for a while even though I'm meant to update daily oops! On Friday I did 4 hours of revision using the Pomodoro technique :smile: I did more chem revision as I'm still making AS notes :redface: Saturday I did nothing- I got up late and then went to work in the afternoon! I came back in the evening, decided I wanted to do work but watched TV instead. Felt a bit guilty because I have so much to do! But I think I do deserve a break sometimes!:tongue:

Today I did 3.5 hours revision. Did yet more chem revision... and I did C4 Integration revision! Then, I made some econ notes on income wealth and redistribution. Integration is pretty easy tbh but my problem is that I can never remember the rules for standard integrals I REALLY need to learn them ASAP. :s-smilie: Also, I'm resitting S1 but haven't even looked over my notes yet but luckily I kept them from last year! I keep forgetting I'm doing it because I don't have any lessons...

And I got my exam timetable a few days ago turns out all my chem and econ exams clash so I'm gonna have to have 3 full days of exams, and on top of that I'll be stuck with invigilators all day :colonhash: Basically all my exams are in June- I have FP1 on the 14th May and the rest are in June. Counting down the days until the 25th June when I finish :biggrin:

I've decided I'm going to do at least 30.5 hours of revision a week from now on, with mocks coming up and I need to get a move on anyway. I have no idea if that's a lot but luckily I have Monday's off so basically have the entire day to revise!:tongue:

Hope everybody had a great (and hopefully productive) half term!:biggrin:

My inspirational quote for today is:
"Always do what you are afraid to do"- Ralph Waldo Emerson :biggrin:

That's still a lot! I read somwhere you should spend at least 28 hours per week revising for a level... What subjects do you do?
Biology, chemistry and physics.

Biology, chemistry and physics.


Omg how do you deal with doing 3 sciences?! You must be so clever I can barely handle chem!

Unfortunately no. Lots of procrastination but that won’t happen anymore
Physics isn't very theory oriented and a lot of it is common sense + calculations. Biology is alright if you memorise mark schemes and chemistry is mostly calculations too.

What would you like to do after A levels?:smile:
+ maths is a lot harder than all of them so I commend you for doing FM.

Well I think maths is easier.. And I'm only doing AS FM which is fine! Are you in the first or second year?
