1: art, history & english
2: I already picked last week, I'm (hopefully) taking: French, history, art, film/media studies, we have to take RS and obviously the core subjects -- I'm hoping to get separate/ triple science, for my reserve options I put DT and computer science (in case I don't get my original choices)
3: fav show is probably one of us is lying -- fav film is probably mamma mia or Hamilton
4: I listen to a veryy wide variety of music I'm not exactly sure what genre they are but I definitely listen to a looot of musicals.
5: not really a food more a meal but nandos or a roast dinner loll

2) What GCSE options are you thinking of picking this year? i've already picked! triple science, music, religious studies, spanish and latin
3) What is your favourite TV show/film? don't rlly have one tbh - i haven't watched the tv since the start of exams in april/may (exams are over tho!)
4) What kind of music do you like to listen to? definitely k-pop and i like pop music that's kinda r&b in a way??
5) What is your favourite food? atm, it's stone-baked pizza - it's actually so good but so expensive at my local asda. honourable mention: cinnamon rolls (they actually taste so good at my school bro)

Hi everybody,

I know its about that time when everybody's getting back to school for the new academic year. I hope you all had some good time off over summer!

Whilst year 9 marks the start of your GCSE journey, please try not to let this cause you stress! I actually found year 9 a really fun year and the work more engaging and enjoyable!


Top Tips:

Keep neat notes for all of your subjects ensuring they are complete and legible - don't be afraid to use diagrams

Get organised - buy a few ringbinders for revision materials later down the line

Get into a good study routine - spend an hour to an hour and a half per evening after school doing any homework you have or some extra revision for things you've recently learnt

Don't leave class with unanswered questions!

Remember to have fun - be open minded and start having a think about what kind of subject areas you enjoy and are good at - its very early to start thinking about A-Levels but year 9 is a great opportunity to discover what you enjoy!



Best of luck everybody!

All of us @ University of Bath
