when i have trouble procrastinating i remind myself nothing's going to happen until i sit my ass down, put the pen to the paper and do the work

that includes wasting time on tsr

you have 5 days. go use them all. there is always hope

I genuinely think I have ruined my life. I have done NO revision, procrastinated EVERY DAY and there is currently less than 5 days until my biology gcse resit and 8 days until my Year 12 biology, chemistry and psychology mocks. Bear in mind these mocks will dictate what grades I put on UCAS. I need to get a 7 in gcse biology and 3 A’s because I BADLY want to apply for medicine. I recognise my stupidity and laziness I just need a plan that I can stick to and motivation (possibly toxic). Does anyone think I can still bag the 7 and 3 A’s😪😪 I’m actually begging for some help and motivation. I just don’t think 7 days is enough to get A’s in bio psych and chem and maybe i need to accept that whatever I do in this last week it is impossible. Do you guys think it’s possible?? PLEASE HELP I’M BEGGING

You can resit biology???

Ohhh okay, so id say for the gcse bio you can definitely get a 7 or even a 9, p2 is just memorisation for my exam board and you can just cram really hard to do well. Idk about a levels tho sorry im only year 11. Good luck tho i hope you do well

why the hell did u pay or your parents pay £250 and u didn’t revise? no offence but that’s not the kind of attitude which will get you into med school. i think you’ll at best get BBB/ABB if you did something like 6/7 hours per day. But at the end of the day the GCSEs are really important to progress into higher education whereas if you get *****y predicted grade but get AAA in the real alevel next year you could take a gap year and re apply for medicine and everything will be fine. But seriously the people who get in to med school are neeks who revise 24/7 so id suggest you try use competition as motivation cause while your sleeping or doing something actually fun in your free time there’s a nerd grinding their balls off to get A*A*A* or something crazy. anyways best of luck :smile:
