So I've seen a lot of these 'grow your grades' and 'journey' threads so I thought I'd hop on and make my own, plus I feel it could motivate me more.
Subjects I study:
I am hopefully going to be resitting unit 1 in law and unit 1 in classics however I have not yet come to a final decision on this as I am unsure on costs and whether or not I'll be able to afford a resit.
I'll be posting updates, hopefully on a regular basis, but I will definitely be updating you all on my revision and all that other good stuff. I'd appreciate advice for classics and economics as I'm yet to find a good way of revising it.

UPDATE:
Yesterday I brought a few notepads and I'm using one per subject. I started economics from scratch so I can get a better understanding of it - I'm using my teachers micro powerpoints and taking notes as I go. I've completed behavioural economics and economic methodology.
Today I intend to relax as it's Sunday.

Today I had double law, single classics and single economics.
We covered loss of control again in law as most of the group didn't understand it - this was a nice refresher and I didn't have to go over the lesson as it was a revisit.
Classics we looked at Augustus' military achievements and we looked at the number of legions before/after various battles and how Varus was a complete idiot and lost 3 legions in Germania (was an interesting lesson).
Economics, our teacher went too far into the course without realising it so we all sat there confused - not much was achieved so I just sat there and did my own thing and looked at micro in more detail using my revision book.
All in all, productive day! I also managed to successfully drop my EPQ without our coordinator getting mad at me, whoop.
