HadronCollider's Year 13 Journey

Hi everyone, I'm HadronCollider :smile:

I'm going into Year 13 this week! Although this is in the GYG forum, this discussion will be used as a kind of blog to keep you updates on what I have to do each week etc.

A bit about me:

•

predicted grades: A*A*A

•

subjects: Chemistry, Biology, Maths, EPQ

•

aspirations: hopefully study medicine at university, and get an A in Maths in the real exams! :biggrin:

I will try to update every week or twice a week depending on tests, revision etc. this year. I've heard Year 13 is a big jump from Year 12, more than from GCSE to A level, so finger's crossed!

I've reached the end of my first week in year 13! I have two tests next week ☹️ Maths and Chemistry
So far, I like year 13 but I can definitely feel the work slowly ramping up..we went straight back into year 13 stuff in all of my lessons which was expected but I can tell this year is going to go by so quickly! At least I have more frees this year...
This is my to do list for today:

•

EPQ - work on draft and finish conclusion

•

Maths - practise radians and sequences questions

•

Chem - revise Kp and Equilibria

•

Bio - recap on stages of photosynthesis --> make flashcards

Hopefully I can complete this today and then complete my EPQ this week, its taking me a while to write my final draft!
Ill try and keep you updated on my progress this weekend :smile:
