well donee on making progress on your essays!!
oooo what dishes are you planning to make for your food tech nea??
GIRL WE ONLY HAVE 16 WEEKS GO REVISE 😤😤 but in all seriousness, 3 months sounds like agess, but thinking of it as 100 days and only like 15 weeks from now is barely anything... i've learnt that the only thing you'll get from procrastination is STRESS. i procrastinated a lott for my mocks and only properly started revising in the christmas holidays (my mocks started jan 4th) and i was seriously stressing and was burnt out by the end of it.
starting small with at least 30 mins to an hour revision sessions after school should be enough to get you into a habitual routine, i'm rooting for you good luckkk!! 💪

Thank youuuuu 🩶
I'm going to start with some chemistry structure and bonding today

I’m taking my AS exams this year but jeez that 15 weeks thing is scary 😧

For GCSEs I think I started properly revising in Easter half term? Best to start early though. I had a study break for GCSEs so that helped too, if you get one make the most of it!!

I think we get 1 and a half weeks study leave before exams start which isn't a lot so I'm going to start doing a little everyday to work up to the actual exams then nearer the time I'll do more revision
Good luck with your AS exams xx

for my technical skills dishes I'm making jam tarts, tagliatelle, swiss roll and falafels with flatbread.
For my final dishes I might make spinach and ricotta tortellini, gougeres with beetroot mayonnaise and a bakewell tart

prep recipe and instruction list for nea2 (food)

module 3 speaking questions (spanish)

organic chemsitry seneca and cognito (chemistry)

maan character mind maps (english lit)

Heyyy

I'm currently in the process of learning the vocab for our current spanish module and then I'll start revising for the other ones.
I got my biology test back and it wasn't as good as I'd hoped - 77% - I guess I procrastinated too much over summer so this year I'm really trying to work on not doing that so I can stay on track.
I'm going to go over some coasts revision for geography either later today or tomorrow because I've got a trip this week to a coastal area so I need to make sure I remember the landforms and stuff:crossedf:
