I'd say for the first week I was pretty much on schedule with all the work I wanted to get done, but by the second week I started procrastinating and I guess I just lost it. I got all my homework done but not all my revision.
•
It was my 18th birthday! This day was super chilled. My siblings and I just took all our duvets and pillows to the living room and just binge watched movies. I also got a chocolate cake and some presents .
•
I baked some chocolate chip cookies, which surprisingly turned out to be delicious - I say surprisingly because usually I flop when trying to cook or bake at home (and somehow I survived food tech gcse ).
•
We started integration by inspection and I think I kind of get it now, which is better than nothing. The lessons are actually really fun now and the maths is so much more interesting that year 12 maths.
•
With teacher 2 we're still on trig but we did the double angle formula and now we're using that and the addition formula to solve problems.
•
We just started looking at regulation and deregulation today, which was pretty straightforward. We just made some chains of analysis for the effects of both and also recapped some year 12 content.
•
My actual teacher will be back from paternity leave next week but I'll miss this substitute teacher because she's really amazing .
•
On the first day back yesterday we had a surprise test on module 2, yay... (it was actually pretty easy though).
•
We also did a practical (again, ugh) - honestly year 13 has just been filled with practicals and i just hate it.
•
I think I have another test tomorrow on module 5, which I'm absolutely crap at but oh well, wish me luck.
•
We'll be moving on to module 6 soon, which I'm super terrified about because its organic chem, oh no .
•
I've received two conditional offers so far - one from QMUL and one from Goldsmiths

We're carrying on with integration. We did integration by substitution and by parts. My teacher also kept us back for one hour on Tuesday to try to catch up with the other class. Honestly, I'm finding it really difficult right now so if anyone has any tips please let me know. I just always feel lost in lesson and damn, the amount of maths headaches I've gotten this week has not been great .
•
With teacher 2 we just finished off trig with some modelling questions. I need to do some more questions to make sure I understand how to do them but so far they've been okay.
•
So my teacher is back from paternity leave. He jumped straight back into teaching us from where we left off. We're doing labour markets right now so we were going over the demand for labour and the marginal revenue product of labour. I actually missed the last lesson on this topic so I was a little confused at first but my friend caught me up .
•
We have an exam next month on all of A2 micro, which I don't feel totally ready for yet but I'll prepare for it soon... hopefully.
•
We finished module 5 and had a test on it, which was terrible. I missed a couple question and all the electrode potential stuff just seemed to have disappeared from my brain so that was fun. I'm just hoping I didn't do as bad as I feel like I did.
•
Parents evening is in 2 weeks, yikes
•
Still waiting on 3 unis to make a decision...

•
So we finished integration, finally (even though I barely get any of it)
•
Started and finished variable acceleration way too quickly
•
Moved on to parametric equations, which are actually quite fun
•
We're really close to finishing the whole course so we'll be done by April for sure.
•
I have three full mock papers coming up in March so that should be fun
•
We finished labour markets
•
Moved on to year 2 macro
•
Started practise on paper 3 which is data and context based
•
Had the micro exam, which was meh
•
We're going to do a full paper 3 for the March mocks
•
Got my test back and I did pretty terrible - I got like 65% or something
•
Made aspirin in a practical that lasted a whole week - didn't even work in the end
•
Finished module 6.1 (I hate organic chem )
•
We'll be doing 2 full papers in the upcoming mocks
•
Did I mention I have mocks coming up in March?
•
I now have 3/5 offers and an interview from ICL
•
Parents evening went surprisingly well
•
My maths teacher suggested that I sit the AEA maths exam so thats one more summer exam for me
•
It's half term next week and I'll be really busy revising... fun times
