Dear GCSE and A Level students,
With the run-up to exam season, I thought it would be nice to make a thread where I post weekly check-in polls for you to vote in and then we discuss why we feel this way in order to uplift and prepare each other for exams! We got this!

Also, after you have voted for the first time in the poll, please comment 'Check-in' below so that I can tag you in future polls!

I put a 2, all of my friends and I have fallen into depression and fatigue this week 😂 I had a panic at the start but I’m starting to feel a bit better. Two weeks until AS exams

Hope everyone is taking breaks x

This week has been pretty terrible, but I am carrying on (and I only have 8 school days left 😮). I know there is a very good chance I won't reach the geography grade I need for my firm, but I was having second thoughts any way, so it may not matter as much.

i do lots of the physics and maths tutor questions, but our teachers have been sending us mock set practice papers from the edexcel website? i'm sure if you asked they'd be able to find them, if not i can dm the ones i have to you (i only have 2 for now but i'll see if my teachers will post more!)

also the review exercises in the textbook are pretty good too, and the mixed exercises! past papers are a given too

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely look at PMT
