just the stuff i’ve covered in school

for physics we’re done technically speaking but i’m not, long story short i do triple science but i’m in a double class since they refused to move me as there’s no space so i’ve been teaching myself all the additional content
chemistry we’re on using resources again nearly done but not for me 😬
and biology we’re done
all this is AQA btw

also what are you wearing to the exam? they said warm but smart so idkkkkkk


My best advice is be comfortable and presentable - get a jumper or hoodie with a comfy (but not too casual) pair of jeans, or if you want to smarten it up, a white shirt with a sweater vest or something - but remember, you're not there to look at people, you're there to sit an important exam, so make sure you feel comfortable in what you're wearing, rather than wearing for style - no one wants to be in an itchy skirt or tight shirt when they're nervous or in an exam - it'll just stress you out more I promise!

And thanks haha, good luck to you all!

also, we're about finished, technically, but our teachers have rushed through a lot of the content, and just set entire topics for us to revise as homework, so that's great :biggrin:

I took the test today. Economics was very hard. I’d really recommend you focus on that. Don’t think I have any chance of getting in now 😭 Ughh
