Weeks 9 and 10 - November 23rd - December 4th
Woah, these last 2 weeks have been crazy! Firstly, there's been a massive corona outbreak within my school, and over half of my year group are self isolating, and its pretty much just a matter of time until I'm sent home at this rate, which is really scary. I've also had some exciting UCAS news, but more on that later...
Maths: Well, that test I mentioned last week, I thought it went pretty badly but somehow I got an A !?!?!? I'm honestly so surprised, but maths continues to be one massive struggle. We've covered binomial expansion and numerical methods with teacher 1, and continued with integration with teacher 2. Honestly, integration is taking so long at this point it feels like we could probably cover vectors with our other teacher before being anywhere near done with integration.
Geography: What a shock, another week where I'm complaining about the NEA
I've finished my analysis and conclusions and now need to do the evaluation before out next interim deadline in about a week or so. Tbf, I'm getting there but I'm struggling for time to be able to work on it, and I'm probably going to use the majority of the holidays on it as our final deadline is mid January. With teacher 1, we've bee continuing with Earth Life Support Systems which is boring as ever, but the case studies are thankfully a little more interesting which stops me falling asleep in those lessons
we also had a test a couple of weeks ago where I got an A*, I have absolutely no idea how though, especially as my essay was complete trash.
Economics: As usual, the lessons have been really interesting, though I definitely prefer microeconomics to macroeconomics as the content just makes a lot more sense. I've got a test on financial markets and market structures tomorrow which I need to revise for tonight, but otherwise should be okay as a lot of that content is easy, except the graphs lol.
In other news, I got an invite to interview from Cambridge! I'm honestly so shocked, I never thought I'd get to the interview stage as I don't even have any 9s at GCSE and only 2 8s, which is nothing compared to most people who apply to Cambridge. I'm so happy but I also need to prepare a lot for the interview, but thankfully I have time as they gave me 3.5 weeks notice! My interview is right before Christmas, so that gives me plenty of time, as I finish school on the 18th (if I'm even still in by then due to the cases rising, but that's another story)
Hope everyone has had a good couple of weeks and that the next couple are also great! I'm so excited for Christmas, primarily for the time off school LOL, even though I still have to do some work.
