My last year of a levels GYG

I’m feeling the same. For some reason, I don’t feel as motivated as I should be. I have no idea why. I just need to get back to work.

I’m surprised you don’t have study rooms at school. I thought they were common in every sixth form?

We have a library, and 2 computer rooms (1 is half computers and half tables and the other is all computers) the computer rooms are loud and always full and the library is open plan.

They should really provide you guys with quiet study rooms. The library should be quiet anyway. Don’t you have any nearby libraries in your area? Perhaps in your area, preferably quiet ones

The annoying thing is if my frees are in the morning I need to be at school so that is a waste of my time.There is a library nearby unfortunately it is closed on Sunday.

The practice interview went ok.I am struggling to settle down for some reason.I am quite looking forward to going to Manchester but also quite anxious about it as I would like it to go well.

I had my Manchester interview today.It went well, the person who interviewed me said she would like to give me an offer which is great.The course is really flexible and they have lots of opportunities for industrial placements, field trips and year abroad opportunities.However the school of biological sciences is quite old and not very modern.I don't know why but I don't feel happy as it isn't my dream and I feel like I will have to settle.I don't think I can get ABB anyway so it doesn't matter and I should just be happy how things went.

I have been 1 hour 30 minutes late to school 2 days in a row I am finding it hard to wake up.My alarm goes off and I go automatically back to sleep I just feel tired and irritated.My chemistry teacher annoyed me as I asked for help after school and she was quite unkind and told me to help myself and that I need to be independent and it is very hard for me to ask for help in the first place so now I don't think I will ever ask for help again from her.I feel like I can't stretch myself equally between the 3 subjects I feel like I can focus only on 2 subjects at a time.I am considering giving up on chemistry to only focus on maths and biology and retake chemistry next year because I prefer to get 2 good grades rather than 1 good and 2 bad.I have had an incredibly hard 2 years I regret my a level choices if I was to do it all again I would choose all humanities.The only reason I picked the a levels I did was because I had received terrible advice and I was told that doing humanities would give me terrible job prospects but the truth is having crap a level results is what gives you bad job prospects and no one cares what you study as long as you get good grades.

I have received an offer from Warwick (BBB) and Bath (AAB).I am super excited however on Bath's website it said ABB if you do 2 or more sciences which I do so I am a bit confused.I haven't visited either.I am still waiting for Edinburgh and the official UCAS offer from Manchester.I need to somehow magically get the grades.I need to stay positive.

Nice. I knew it would come eventually and Warwick gave you BBB. Looks like you won’t have to worry too much anymore. Now we just wait to get the offer for Edinburgh and we will see how we will go from there. Good luck and well done for getting those offers.

I had a morning revision session at school so had to get in 1 hour early,The day went pretty quick, we are finished with all content in all my subjects and just doing revision.I only have confidence in my biology teacher then my maths teacher and I have the last confidence in my chemistry teacher.I am not sure whether my chemistry teacher knows what she is doing.We are her first ever chemistry a level class and the vast majority of class received D's and U's in their last mocks.I hope the internet works in school tomorrow because the computer rooms are completely filled and I ended up sitting next to a person who reeked of cigarettes it made me feel incredibly sick.

It looks like it’s the final days. Hopefully you will do well revising. Don’t be too pressured about the exams. Spend time to control your fears or any doubts you may have. Revise efficiently and try to understand the content while you are going through it.

I feel quite tired and like I am not putting in enough work compared to others.I know I shouldn't compare myself to others but it is so hard because they are getting amazing grades because they work hard while I know I am not getting such amazing grades because I don't work as hard and it is my fault.I have some action plan in my head but whether I stick to it we will see.Through out my a levels I have made so many action plans in my head I have lost count how many there were.
