We're getting close to exam season now, with only one month until SQA exams begin :eek:

How are you feeling about them?

I’m a bit

I think I’ve got a good study plan, my first exam is in 4 weeks and 4 days though, the year has gone way too fast! I’m in S5, doing highers.

Sounds good! Definitely agree though, the time seems to go way too quickly when it comes to exams. What subjects are you doing?

Only exam that I have properly this year is for my Advanced Higher English and am fairly confident for it? JUst hope my mind doesn't decide to go blank on the exam day though lmao. Still will need to work on my Foundation Apprenticeship evidence throughout it though.

Good these exams have creeped up fast I feeling quite good tho I’ve started studying early for them and done very well In my second prelims.

Chemistry :smile:

( got 90% on my second prelim but still think I have lots to cover)
Maths :biggrin:

(if my exam was today I think I could get an A or a high B so just gotta keep working along.)

Spanish :colondollar:

( just done my speaking test think I’ll probably get 24)
Physics :eek:

( hate the subject and my teacher honestly debating showing up for the exam)

I know, seems like it was only a few weeks ago that it was exam season last year!
Well done on your prelim grades! If you don't need the physics grade but need to spend more time on your other subjects it's up to you, but we're so close now, you can do it!
