Meming to Oxbridge II [Year 13 GYG]



(We'll work on this later)



Hi there, over the course of my life I've gone by many names, however on this platform in particular, I go by thotproduct.

Some quick etymology for this one: it's the fascinating port-manteau of thot (patrol), and dot-product. We always have to be on our toes, not just in Maths.

This GYG, is of course, for my Year 13 misadventures. My Year 12 one is here, if you really care (I don't tbh, and you can tell by the formatting lmaooo).

I do Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Chemistry. My board for Maths, Further Maths and Physics is OCR A, my Chemistry board is AQA.

Some quick background:
GCSE:

>so tell us about yourself?
I promise I'm really interesting if you get to know me, but this is just a GYG so you'll probably learn some things or two about me as we go along, some good, others less so. Without sounding like a bait tinder thot's bio:

I play piano and guitar a bit I guess?

I like my video games I guess?

I speak some languages?

Programming a bit? And do a few sports?

The odd olympiad or three?


>so what's next after Y12?
I told you I would get AAAA at the start of Y12, and that's what I got, this year I'm applying for Cambridge for Maths (or Engineering [Electronic] and then Maths) (I think?, still kinda undecided but leaning towards Maths desu). As such, I'm sitting STEP (even if I don't end up doing Maths it's good fun and I enjoy doing this stuff, it's just what I do well at), MAT and all that jazz.

Olympiad: BChO, BPhO, BMO1 (hopefully), and maybe...just maybe, BMO2? We shall see.

In any case, catch me applying to:
Cambridge: Corpus Christi College
Imperial
UCL
Bristol
Sheffield/Warwick

>tell us your revision technique?
I couldn't tell you because I don't have one. Listening in class would be a good start though.


Everything else
I also try and make deep convo whenever I can to spice things up when things are going slow, do you really think I'm gonna be revising during the holidays, miss me with that, I'm taking some fat naps. I'll try and perhaps incorporate some sort of system where I take requests for topics or things to do or whatnot, to make this place somewhat lively, my grades aren't that interesting to spend an entire year staring at letters and various raw marks.

Tags:
The old squad, with some other guys who I think MAY be interested, taking new tag people everyday, and obviously since GYGs are some long ting and some of them have the audacity with the daily or even twice a day regular updates it can be vexing. I usually update once a week or once a fortnight so I'll try not to be too disruptive(!). If you wanna come in, if you wanna come out, just ask, unlike Luis Suarez, I don't bite, and unlike Zinedine Zidane, you won't get headbutted for saying so.

Oof nice, same boards too. I think I remember your face in the unofficial markschemes. I'm not very smart when it comes to words, and Biology being the english literature of the sciences always made me feel uneasy lmao.
