(manu)vering through year 12

hi all! i'm manu and i did a gcse gyg blog last year which i ended up really enjoying as i had a lot of freedom and was able to look back on my experience :smile:

you can find it here
so alas, my year 12 gyg (with a better title!)
just thought i'd start this early so i can sort out the tag list and the op :smile:

my a-level choices are:
aqa english lit
aqa maths
aqa psychology

i'm not entirely sure what a-level grades i'm aiming for yet- maybe AAA?

in the future, i'd like to go into a career related to mental health- at the moment, mental health research is appealing to me the most. something related to eating disorders has also been at the back of my mind :ninja:

if all doesn't work out or i have a change of mind, an alternate career would be primary school teaching.
if you'd like to be added to the quote list please tell me :biggrin:

coursework i can't even remember what we did :unsure:

(ocrmusic or some rubbish)
computer science was a subject i loathed so you can imagine i wasn't willing to put the effort in for revision :sadnod:

paper one i revised for and found okay, actually. paper two i tried to revise for but algorithms are not a thing i could learn in a day so i found the second paper dreadful but just wrote something down where i could.
how about you?
