oliviapope&#x27;s attempt at getting herself together and smashing her a-levels!

Original post by oliviapope1

lolll differentiation is really kicking me atm. it's like being blindfolded and listening to someone speak a foreign language. i'm praying that it gets better with time and i'm so grateful we're on it now so i have a lot more time to go over it in my free time over the next few months

PRSOM - have you tried using the PMT cheat sheets? They're really useful 🥰

-year 13 student
-med applicant
-already received an offer for my 5th choice
-struggling with motivation at the minute but made this thread in hopes of increasing it
