It’s been a while haha 🙃 I’ve not been active as I went abroad to see my family for Easter, but I’m ready to get back on the academic grind
Tasks for today:
Maths - eqations and inequations, circle geometry, indices (and scatter graphs if I have time)
Geography - limestone, rivers (and climate change possibly)
Bio - if I have time I will try to get some bio hw done, but I doubt I will get round to it.
Also as a side note, I wanted to mention my Spanish speaking results as I said I would in a previous post I thought I would have to redo my exam because I forgot so much of my entire talk but turns out I got full marks?! I was so shocked when my teacher told me ahah but I was genuinely so happy !

It's been a while since I updated this hahah
I've been so busy, but at the same time have hit a major procrastination slump and haven't been able to revise for more than an hour recently
I'm really trying to get back into the flow of things but my first exam is in 3 days 😧 and I'm freaking out because I'm feeling so unprepared - I feel like I forgot everything since my prelim! But we push through 💪 Will update tomorrow, with a goal of at least 2-3hrs revision !

Today was the official first day of study leave, so I managed to get a grand total of 5 hours 19 mins geography revision done! I’m very proud of it, I think the fact that my Geography exam is tomorrow 😨 has given me that last push of motivation. My exam is at 1pm tomorrow so that’ll give me at least 2 hours revision time before hopefully. But I’m really nervous as this is the first proper exam I’ll do! I feel unprepared, but I think it’s like with every kind of assessment, where the more you study the more you realise how much you actually don’t know. But I’d say I have done a good amount of revision so I should be fine probably not as much as I should have done, but I’ve been putting in the work throughout the year during class and for tests so I’m hoping it will pay off 🤞
Regardless, Geography is a subject where a lot of the time you just have to use common sense and waffle your way through it ahah so it should allow me to ease into the exam routine 🫶

First exam is now done and out the way
I'd say it wasn't as scary as I was expecting, and surprisingly I didn't get a hand cramp all the way up to the end lol. It was a mix really, some questions I was confident with and others not so much but I think it went well!
The formation of caverns came up which was the one that I was hoping that wouldn't come up 🫣 so I just rambled on about general limestone features haha
When I finished the paper I realised that I missed two pages - but I managed to almost get that filled in with the 20 minutes I had left.
Overall quite happy with how it went
Next exam is maths on the 3rd of may

I haven’t really been responding to gygs lately as I’ve been so busy, but I promise I’m reading them and so proud of all of your progress ! ❤️
As my maths exam is approaching I am beginning to seriously freak out 😂
I’ve still got some rusty topics to revise and I can’t seem to wrap my head around them so that is my plan for today. I’ve completed 3 past papers so far and in the middle of doing a 4th one. They have actually been really helping and now I just have to master quadratics, trig graphs, algebraic fractions and indices which is a lot but I’ve still got a little bit of time left so maybe I’ll manage to cover 2 of these today.

Maths exam is over ! No more maths exam stress, and I can now fully focus on my other exams. Both papers were pretty good, the questions were pretty straightforward. I had some struggles with quadratics, a trig equation and a weird arc and sector question but overall I’m predicting myself an A/B, which I’m very happy about! I’ve heard that others have found it easier than past papers so hoping the SQA doesn’t make the grade boundaries higher🤞
I’m not taking higher maths next year so I’m really hoping for an A to up my chances if I were to apply to a bsc course haha
As for now, I’m going to try to get 2 hours revision done today of English and Spanish which are my next 2 exams
