Is TSR a waste of time?

I doubt so we’ve all felt the same way at some point

Just finished A level

I know what you mean you end up destroying yourself inside

Knowing me I’ll probably do the same my mind never learns it’s lesson


*takes notes of the videos too*
I honestly don’t think I’ve come to terms with the fact I’ll be starting uni soon let alone worry about my actual mindset

But yeah Jaz we got this we just gotta stay strong and keep our cool .... let’s see how long that lasts exactly

funny is for a bad reason. sometimes **** is just too painful to even laugh.

You ok?

why do u ask

What does TSR mean to you?

Are there any particular benefits you have reaped from using TSR (if you're a non-applicant)?

Glad you have made it out alive.

I find it most frustrating that so many of us struggle with A-levels when imo they are not THAT difficult if you are doing the right things. I think personally that the 6th form experience is ruined because so many students choose the wrong subjects and schools (most) are rubbish when it comes to assisting individuals during UCAS application.

You should watch them, they're so good!

Hahhah, exactly. I know that my motivation will inevitably fade at some point and I am petrified by the thought of it

What does TSR mean to you?

Hahha, it's fine it's all anonymous


Sadly, being a workaholic can have negative repercussions on the very thing we are trying to work on compulsively (at least that has been the case for me). My friends were intimidated by me because I used to never sleep "doing work" and they'd think I was working all the time. In reality, only <10% of that time consisted of actual productive work and many of them ended up performing better than I did because they worked "smart". I think that the amount of time a person is "working" doesn't necessarily mean they are actually benefiting/ working efficiently. So, keep that in mind, Measure your work by the amount of tasks you finished not hours

I think that the most important thing I learnt was that if I am sitting staring at my work for hours (or another tab), instead of thinking that it means that I need to beat myself up for it, I needed to go out/ exercise/ take a break/ socialise. Don't underestimate this tip. Seriously, it's my absolute biggest regret and if you can stop yourself from falling into that trap, it can literally change your life (which uni you end up in and what grades you get).

I relate way too much to the thinking I don't deserve happiness part, especially when there's tasks piling up. But again please don't fall for it.

Good luck xx

Not seen you floating about for a bit, and that last post is quite deep

Thanks just about tbh

Yeah that’s true it’s all about your mindset and just telling your self your capable of anything. Same my 6th forum were awful I had no real support from them... tbh I received more support from TSR. In regard to UCAS they just left us to it until it was their turn to send it off and that’s it really.

agree with you there

Apologies

Exactly it’s like what are you here for then? Just to sit and preach how terrible we are (my 6 form would honestly complain all the time about us). I guess that is true I have definitely learnt my lesson there.

Thanks best of luck with your A levels? I think

not for me

How so?
