Beating Burnout With A Blog (GYG)

Announcements
I've been struggling with motivation since the start of lockdown 3.0 but I'm hoping this will help me and my last few brain cells get ready for my mocks and everything else I'm going to have to do for my A-levels.
I'm currently in year 13 and my subjects are
Biology, Chemistry & Maths
My dream course is NatSci at Southampton so I'm aiming for A*AA

- maths - revise mechanics especially year 2 content
- chemistry - complete at least one paper 2

Studying is really difficult atm it’s tough enough staying engaged with online lessons never mind doing revision for mocks which will likely impact our final grades.

don't overwork urself... stay hydrated and after each hour or so go outside for a mini walk around the block if the weathers good or just sit with ur family and have a chat
try to build up the revision by a small amount so u feel more prepared when it comes closer to exams and then ur not stressing urself out too much.
hope this helps... this routines helped me the most aswell becos im a huge procrastinator lol it also leaves me enuf time to just chillax on a sunday

get as much as u can done doing ur lesson time and it's online so u can always take it slow, have a snack whilst studying and listen to music if it helps... then when its the weekend prioritise which work needs to be completed first and spend some time finishing off ur school work taking frequent breaks in between... after that choose 1 topic for each subject that u haven't covered in a long time or u find difficult to get ur head around and just focus on that 1 topic for 1 hour... which is only 3 hours in total just for revision over the weekend... this way ur getting some revision done and ur school work completed... even the smallest amount of revision helps

When doing GCSEs my biggest issue was that I overworked so I am trying to go a walks and look after myself but to be honest leaving the house doesn’t really feel safe anymore so I’m struggling.
Personally when I’m revising i break an hours revision into 4-6 different topics and try to do a little bit of each. This helps as when I get to my mocks it will only be a week since I last covered a topic and in exams you have to quickly switch between topics.
