⋆⭒✧˚｡⋆ 6th year gyg ⋆⭒✧˚｡⋆

Welcome to GYG! Best of luck with your goals
I also watch a lot of house md and love painting. What are your favourite things to paint? What kind of paints do you use? I like painting with watercolours and mostly paint nature-y stuff like birds.
Hope all your exams went really well! You did human bio and are now moving to straight bio, thats interesting. Does the bio course have more animal and plant focused stuff in with the human content for AH bio?
I study a levels and take maths and biology btw 🙂
Wishing you the best of luck with your medicine ambitions!

Thank you! I can literally only paint skies or like scenery/nature and I loveee watercolour. I don't paint as often now, but I might start again in the summer.
My exams went well (i hope) appreciate you asking 🙂 I'm kinda dreading AH bio just because I much prefer the human stuff. The bio course definitely has more animal and plant focused stuff, so I will need to catch up on the 2 bio units in the summer.
Nice to know! I have seen your gyg, will go look at it again though. Nice to see we have some common ground )))) And thanks for the wishes 🙂

hi everyone!
i've decided to make this gyg to keep me accountable and motivated for S6 (6th year in scotland), as i know it's going to be difficult and i'll need to be on top of it.
first though:

about me:


advanced highers + preds


courses + uni

Hello, best of luck with your studies I also like Brooklyn 99

Welcome 👋
The hobbies part is so real, you don't have to be great to love them😂
BTW your predicated grades are amazing I wish you the best for ucat and your medicine applicant journey!

Hi. Hope S6 goes well. Those are great grades. How does entry for Advanced Highers work as you have started the course but haven't received your higher results?
Hope you get into Medicine.
Also congrats on being a study forum helper on your first post somehow.

Landscapes are lovely to paint 🙂 I definitely need to do more painting as well tbf
It’s quite cool that human bio is offered as a course. With GCSEs/a levels human bio is very very rare (never come across anyone who does it but it’s apparently a thing!).
Good luck with everything you want to get done over the summer!

Thank you so much! It definitely is a classic 🙂
Appreciate your well wishes )
I should probably include a tag in my original post on how the scottish system works because it is very confusing. but basically after you finish exams in may, you come back in june to start your new courses (this just means you get a taster of them) so you can decide whether you like those subjects and want to continue forward with them. when you get your results back for highers, if you failed or barely passed them, you'd be recommended to drop any advanced highers you took and resit the higher qualification. so basically, you pick based on your prelim preds and do those subjects for a couple weeks. it's complicated i know haha.
Appreciate the well wishes ))) And funnily enough, I've been a study forum helper quite a while, I just never really posted on GYG - if you head over to the Scottish Quals you'll see me there quite a bit because that's probably where i work best
Human Bio is actually offered in other courses like IGCSE and Australian ATAR (according to my friends) I do think it's very worth offering tbh

So I've been out of school for a while, and missed a decent amount for some of my subjects. So here's what I need to do today:Yes I'm running for head girl in my school - I do hope I'd get it but I'll be fine with depute head as well. I have my interview in a couple of weeks, also I have a reflective essay due in a couple of weeks for an out-of-school course but not to do right now.
Also the UCAT is killing me right now, I started revising because I'm going to sit it on one of the earlier test dates so I don't need to spend time in school worrying about it and get the best AH preds possible 🙂
That's all for today, I'll update later on whether I did do any of these things. I'm going out with friends tomorrow so I do need to complete all of this today

Hope you can complete all those tasks and can become Head Girl.

Best of luck with your catch up work and homework!
Sounds like you have a lot going on, I hope you manage to prepare yourself well for everything 🙂

The UCAT😓 when are you planning to sit it? Also best of luck with the interview and getting the role of head girl! 🍀🤞

Honestly same! Really do hope )
I do! It's mainly because I took 2 weeks off for out-of-school things and didn't catch up on the weekend, so all that work is now piling up 😯
Thank you for the wishes ))) I'm planning on booking the UCAT around a couple days after results day so like 8th/9th August - and then I have a good few days before we're back to school to chill haha

Hello! I know I've seen you around on the Scottish Qualifications forum before. Good to see you in the GYG space too!
I'm also taking AH Maths and AH Biology. Like you, I did Human Biology at Higher because I'm not a big fan of the plant stuff. Though it seems like the second unit of AH Biology is more focused on evolution and reproduction in animals than plants so hopefully it shouldn't be too bad. I'm looking forward to learning about parasitism, for sure. Do you have any ideas of what sort of thing you want to do for your project? My teachers ideally want me to have a project topic chosen before the summer.
Good luck on studying for the UCAT and actually sitting it! I'm not an aspiring med student so I'm not sure what sort of things are in it but I can imagine it being difficult if you have to do well to get into medicine. Good luck on your Head Girl interview too! I'm hoping to put myself forward for one of the Head Student (they don't specify gender in my school) positions as well when the time comes - though, like you, I'd take a Depute Head Student position too. Maybe we can compare notes? Haha.

Hiii!! I stumbled across your GYG and I'm loving it so far!
Good luck with your medicine aspirations and for head girl too!
(I'm the deputy head girl at my school )
