aarc's gyg blog - my treacherous battle through y13
hi all!
i know we are already in november but i've been lurking and observing in gyg for a while now and felt motivated to make one for myself
hopefully this will help me stay on track & motivated ... we'll see
year: 13
subjects: english language, french and philosophy
predicted grades: A*AB
dream grades: A*A*A
main goal: staying on track with revision and not procrastinating!
uni status: applied - 3/5 offers so far from cardiff, bristol & ULIP, not heard from st andrews or UCL yet
uni course: french/french + ab initio italian
my problem subject is philosophy so this will be my main focus for now - i'd love to get an A in the real thing but currently working at C/B level, completely due to my own lack of revision and motivation, but hopefully this blog will help me a bit to overcome that!
but anyways, thank you for reading and i hope you enjoy watching the progress that i will (hopefully..) make

strong-ish start today - had english this morning which meant an hour of coursework. currently making good progress, working on having my justification, hypotheses and methodology finished by next week, and most of my theory research done.
in my break i got a couple of the things i wanted to do done which included finishing my topic mindmap for la marginalisation and doing a topic mindmap for the design argument, which i want to create for each philosophy topic for revision (eventually).
had philosophy this afternoon and got one of two of my exams back, i got a B which i was okay with, i wasn't expecting much because i barely revised out of fear lol
overall.. feeling ok. have a couple of homeworks for tuesday to finish off but that's all that's urgent.
