Just wondering but have you applied yet? The deadline's coming up soon
Please add me to your tag list!

Thank you so much! You too
I have just sent my application to the school and my head of sixth form just keep sending it back to me because I have missed something. I hope he would send it soon. The whole process is so nervewrecking and exciting. I just hope everything goes through smoothly. What about you?

Loving this blog so far, best of luck xx

Thank you so much! Are you doing A levels as well?

Sounds like you've been working really hard! Keep up the excellent work, can't wait to see your progress! Xx

No I'm Scottish and I'm doing a HNC. It's kinda hard to describe to English peeps lol. I do have a GYG blog if you wanna check it out tho

Hey there smart peeps. I have just sent my UCAS application to my school this morning and got some time to spare after a hectic week of last-minute redrafting my personal statement. Why not make a GYG blog just to motivate myself?


My AS Year...


was a disaster . At least when it had just started. I didn't know how to revise for A levels (Chemistry, Biology and Maths) , didn't understand what the teacher was talking about and I was not used to being a boarder at school. I missed home a lot and that distracted me a lot. I was (and is) aiming for As and A*s but I was getting Bs and Ds in my tests instead.
In November, though, I found the way to balance my studies and other stuff. I began to score A*s in Chemistry and Maths and A in Biology.



My A2 year...


is much much better. Now that I am predicted with A*A*A* (which I am really proud of), I hope I will be able to maintain that despite the little step up from year 12 to year 13.
Aside from school, I am also hoping I would stay physically and mentally healthy this year, keeping myself from being over stressed. Unlike last year where I had a huge mental breakdown.




My 5 University Choices:




Future Plans:


I will be doing psychology in university. I know a lot of people who did psychology would become a clinical psychologists or pursue some subject-related works. I have not decided my career path yet but I know that I wouldn't want to become a psychologist and would definitely love to work in an airline company. Probably because my mom works in one and the benefits is too good to be true. (Imagine flying to another country with 1/10th of the ticket's price.)


Recent Goals for October:





I am excited to embark on this 10 month journey to A levels exam! I literally cannot wait until A levels are over and going to university.

Ask me anything if you have any questions on your UCAS application! I will try my best to answer it.

I will try to post my updates daily but then with all the work coming up I cannot make any promises. See you soon!

hey ive just started AS and im doing the same subjects as you! im also aiming for As but i really need tips and advice for each subject if you wouldnt mind!
well done on your grades btw, theyre amazing!!
