Burnout from A levels

Recently I’ve been getting really burnt out from A levels, but obviously since its school I can’t exactly take a break, and I need to work over summer so I can resit my mock exams, so I can’t take one there either. Its just so frustrating because it just feels so easy in comparison to bring myself to do other, non school things like drawing. How am I supposed to recover from this? I’m worried at this rate I won’t be able to get into the university courses I want

Convince ur self that there will be end dont think that this is gonna continue forever
Js convince ur self yr 13 summer is gonna be a good relaxing summer if u worked hard now
Without feeling guilty
My mistake was always stressing myself out by thinking minimum amount of hrs I should revise is 7+ daily but in reality u dont need to do that much ( fun fact A students dont do much revision at home ).

Work hard and enjoy what you're doing, otherwise what's the point of going to college? If you aren't enjoying A-levels then seek out support from friends, teachers and others who might be able to reinvigorate you.
