A realistic journey:will I get into medicine and meet my dreams?

The road to medicine is a long one, never without a few hiccups. I can remember my son getting a b at as level for example.

Your a levels will never be as hard as now, as you get used to the transition

you can do this , good luck

Chemistry 1-22 and halfway through 23
Biology 1-14 and also 19
Maths 1-16, most of 17, 18,22,,24

damn your grades are amazing! tag me please

For maths do you do edexcel? So which chapters did your class finish in Pure Maths, Stats and Mechanics?

damn your grades are amazing! tag me please

I've been seeing 'tag me' many places. What does it mean ?

Honest answer? Maybe not.

when you do @ ''person's username'' they get a notification each time you post

The schedules:

I’m also in year 13 and need to make a revision schedule ASAP!! can I ask what resources you use in general and for practise questions for bio chem and maths.

You may not want to as I’m currently not doing great as alluded to but I do have some advice...

My schedule is on the first page of this thread.
Resources I use generally:
Biology: textbook, my summary notes, my summarised versions of my summaries
Chemistry: textbook, machemguy, chemrevise and Doc Brown also my college PowerPoints and schedules as well as lesson materials
Maths: tl maths videos (Jack Brown), exam solutions, college PowerPoints and also both the cgp book and old spec elmwood textbooks

Exam questions:
biology and chemistry: physics and maths tutor, maths made easy, the textbooks in the end of chapter bits
Maths: my teacher has this 35 page document split into all the content with exam qs by topic from all boards and exam qs are there as well as integral resources and Jack Brown videos by topic as well as all of the exam papers - MADAS IYGB papers are great although I’m not sure how they justify increasing the difficulty twofold between r and s or somewhere around there

For Bio, I saw another person use summary notes too. What is it? Do you literally just summarise what you learnt in class on sheets of paper, and then store it away? How do you make summary notes- I tend to write complex notes to the little minuet detail of everything in bio, then i work from that- so obviously I don't rely on summarisation. Do you think summarising is good? I am just always worried that I need to know every single small detail in Bio incase it comes up as a simple AO1 question in the exam. Hence, I tend to want to have a solid knowledge on everything. What do you think?

Fully aware of the stats hence the question your statement is what I personally think

@Exdoz
For example: the summary

Then the prompt sheet

Then the recap

This is chapter 11 aqa on photosynthesis (ignore if the prompt sheet says 12 as it was the first I could find) and I’ve got the 2 textbooks and revision guide from around 15 pages in each textbook and 5/6 in the guide to two sheets a4 - also please excuse my atrocious handwriting

I think you have had a really tough week and have not been helped by the responses of your teachers. Tbh interview technique can be learned and also a bit of self belief will work wonders. You really want to be a good doctor. Go in there thinking I am the best person for this slot and believe it. With Biology its a.memorisation game. Get your parents to practice interviews with you. They just need to ask open ended questions and encourage you to refine your responses to find more confident. Is there a chemistry teacher you could go over your paper with.
