I've done one A-level paper and I still have 7 to go (but I don't have any more until after half term). This evening I will revise some human geography and maybe some RS as well.

Ahhh Thank you...I do try
I've assesed my weaknesses so I shall be noow doing topic questions on them following my golden rule:

•

If i can get 3 pages of questions (or 5 depending on how many marks I've lost due to that question) fully correct and no marks lost I can move on

•

If not...continue doing pages until I get three in a row correct

This works because it forces me to make sure I make no silly mistakes and recognise patterns the examiners use to trip students up

omg i haven't joined one of these in agesss, glad to finally be part of this again 💗

had german writing and computing paper 2 today and they were acc amazingg, so today's been good so far <33 as for coping with exam stress, this is generic, but my dad always tells me that i've revised enough and done my best so all i have to do now is going to that exam feeling confident that i know everything. omg lemme say the little comparison he said asw bcs i loved it sm, he said that if he's driving and the window is foggy then he wouldn't be able to focus on the road in front. the same things for exams, if your minds clouded with negativity then you won't be able to focus during the exam, so just keep a clear head and do the exam <333

THAT WAS SO MUCH WAFFLE SORRY HAHA, hope everyones revision is going well 🥰 off to do physics paper 1 revision noww
