hey guys i have my mocks the week after first week back from half term i have aa lot of content to learn this week and know idea how to learn it all


help mee!!!


Hi the first thing I would do is plan! Make a timetable and set all the subjects out! Then literally do all the revision u can even if u spend 3hrs on one subject that is good! Watch YouTube vids freesciencelessons. Or hergarty maths- make notes and do practice questions
Good luck 😉 if you want you can update what your doing on here so your motivated to revise! 👍 U can do it! I’ve got mocks starting first week back as well!
update need to do some english lit and lang paper 2 revision today
hey guys do you think since i havent really made any notes in science i should use active recall as a technique as it is scientifically proven it works wonders?? im also using this technique for history aswell?

How do you use it for science combined. Also could i ask after maybe you have forgotten the content for any subject how do learn and understand it again to revise it?

Just make flash cards or mindmaps whatever works best and keep reading the info stick it on ur bedroom walls so you remember it! If you’ve forgotten it re-visit it you may not have forgotten all of it’ll still be in ur brain just need to apply it to questions to get it out! Yeah read ur notes again and then apply to questions for it to stay in ur long term memory! Hope it helped and Good luck 😉

Whew what a week!! :embarrassed:
The past week was my mock week, which meant 14 exams in 5 days (love that wjec x)
I can't remember my exact thoughts and feelings but here's a little rundown :dumbells:
Monday:
Biology and Maths
Biology was such a longggg paper, and there were so many weird questions such as blurry cell diagrams that we had to match up :holmes: The QER was really weird but I did it and all was good (I hope) :argh:
Maths, ok so the paper was actually so easy and I know I have the skills to do everything, however I revised the wrong things :dontknow: and I couldn't do the question about inequalities but oh well

Tuesday:
English Lit, German Reading, Chemistry, English Language

English Lit was an absolute gem, loved the extract and the question was about Eva's Life and Death or Gerald. I chose Eva :h:
German was a breeze, although one question about health was really hard. The translation was the love of my life (so easy:heart:)
Chemistry I need to have a chat with my teacher because 1/4 of the paper we hadn't covered. I lost 3 marks on a fire triangle question and further 7 on concentration calculations, all of which are really easy :mob:
English Lang I was so so so tired

Wednesday:
Physics, Additional Maths

Physics impossible paper, wanted to cry, none of it was science, just pure mathematics. Decided I am not taking physics a level because of it :cool:
Additional Maths loved the paper, dy/dx is so much fun!!

Thursday:
RE, German Writing, English Lang

RE very weird paper, no one knew the first question so we all just looked up at the same time. I did the ABCx3 scheme for the essays so I hope I'll get a better mark this time :argh:
German Writing was the longest exam ever!! Really messed up on the last question #well done me :u:
English Lang are we still on this? long, my hand hurt so much at the end of the day

Friday:
German listening and speaking

German Listening the radio broke just as the answer was to be said so I missed something out, completely unsure of two answers but I hope I did better
German speaking toll!! ich bin so ermudend!!:nope:

That brings us to the end, sorry the post is long, I've had a good evening, went to the cinema and Nando's with my friends. i'VE also submitted my sixth form application, I've chosen:

Biology
Chemistry
Mathematics
German

woo me!
