Will I do it?
A Brief Introduction: Hi, my name is
Becky! I am a bit late with the whole GYG scheme considering it is October but I've only just really started academic work, its poor I know. But I'm really just doing this because I would really like to have results I am proud of and to reach my academic goals for once. I want to use this to track my progress, Identify problem areas and to motivate myself and hopefully you guys! (Maybe idk I don't know if I'm very motivational lol :s)
So I am currently taking a gap year (2018/2019) before I go to university. and I'm going to be keeping track of my work and life basically on here and try my hardest to be as consistent as possible.
Academic History : My
GCSEs are probably beyond mediocre in comparison to most of the tsr people, but I am proud of them even though I had wanted to achieve much higher preferably all A*-A. But that didn't happen.
Oh my Gosh
AS was a terrible horrible year. I was so excited to start sixth-form and I just thought it would be amazing, I mean I'd watched so many A-level experiences and revision videos so I thought I'd be fine...
I was so incredibly wrong, I struggled in my new school and didn't really fit in, to begin with, which meant I put a lot of effort into trying to skip school and faking all sorts of illness. It eventually caught up to me and I was so unhappy and doing so bad in my subjects because I had a lot to catch up on due to missing out and just not bothering to engage so to conclude that year I achieved... (Well it isn't much of an achievement)
Here comes
Year 13 and A-Levels; things had gotten much better after the shock and realisation of how bad I had done, I became much more motivated and had dropped chemistry (God, I hated that subject). I did work quite hard at the beginning but began to slack off in certain areas and I struggled a lot with my productivity as I am really bad at time management and prioritising. So I ended up getting ...
Gap Year & Plans : So this year I will be retaking both my Biology and Computing A-levels and Maths modules, C4 & S2. I am predicted AAB but I am aiming for a minimum of AAA ideally A*AA, it is definitely a big ask but hopefully with the right motivation, attitude and revision techniques I can do it and we can all support each other here to do so.
If you're wondering I haven't yet completed my personal statement which is awful but within the next few days I should have a draft and I am hoping to go to Manchester University for Computer science.
but I will keep you all posted as I go.
Thanks, for caring enough to support me
