year 13 gyg journal : trying not to become an academic victim 🤡📖

hello everyone!

I've seen a lot of other people do these so felt inspired to make my own.

my subjects: aqa a level politics, french, history + EPQ
current predicted grades (november '23): ABB
grades I would like to get in 2024: AAA or A*AA
uni update (february '24): 5/5 offers :biggrin:

goals for the year:

achieve my dream grades

start believing in myself again

revise little and often rather than cramming everything at the end

remember to still have some fun with friends


thank you coming on this journey with me :smile:

tuesday 24th October 2023
today I am hoping to:
- catch up on a french lesson that I missed about alternative prison sentences
- continue revising for my french test tomorrow (reading, listening and writing on all year 12 topics)
- plan and write a british history essay "how effectively did the National Govt deal with the economic problems?"
- review teacher feedback from some pieces of work on political ideologies (conservatism and liberalism)
