anyone here from class of corona 2020 and are bored bc they’ve got 5 months of nothing so you’re preparing for college early lol
yea same i got three 9s in my mocks so i feel confident in getting into the sixth form i want but the predicted grades might be worse
Me too
It’s sad because we can’t go on ncs, leave the house or even meet family 😢
@@hy7994 true 😞
@@hy7994 u can do ncs in year 12...its a shorter program but they may make exceptions considering corona happened unexpectedly
I'm just gonna summarise everything she says for myself and u guys 😂
*So, what to do in the summer between yr 11 and yr 12* :
• Get work experience (any kind)
• Revise the basics of ur subject
• Have a look at uni's and options - u don't need to do this, but there's no harm in exploring ur options
• Try and prepare urself...E.g- stationary, clothes
• Have fun - Go to NCS, relax, go out, etc
lifesaver x
hard to do so during global lockdown
I mean this video was very much not made this year 😂it’s still possible to do most of these things
@@utility_gaming2059 yeh as said above u can still do them... do the 2nd, 3rd and 4th (online ofc) bullet points...
Tbh tho I'm in yr 12 and there's not much to it...just turn up and go with the flow 😂
so useful, thank you
Looking at this when corona is around got no gsec exams 🥺
Same
Samme😭
Same a year later
year 11 > year 12
• do work experience
• revise basics of subjects u wanna do
• read 2 books to do w each y12 subject
• do online courses e.g 'futurelearn'
• look at uni - explore options
• sort out clothes & stationary
• have fun - it's summer!
Well, I'm self isolated so I guess work experience isn't an option currently.
At least everyone in your age group is in the same boat!
my summer holiday was 4 weeks extra and i done nothing but waste money going out and eating LOL
Just wanted to reply to everyone all in one place about my internship. For everyone asking how I got it, honestly I just emailed in with my CV! I totally understand where you're coming from in wanting to know how I got it when I'm not in/studying that industry but it's all about being proactive and if you really want a seemingly "cool" job you have to go out and get it yourself. Big love xx
thanks x
U re well cute
I think between gcse and a level u should sleep 🥴🥴 I regret waking up at like 8 to go out for the whole day with friends
You're peng that's why
am i the only one who had 5 extra weeks off... so my summer holidays is 11 weeks long as opposed to the usual 6
straywoojin i think everyone in y11 did 😂
yeah because of study leave and then you do the gcse’s and then after the exams summer starts
Rising Stars i didn’t have study leave though, my last exam was june 15th and i finished then
straywoojin yes but holidays didn’t include the study leave period because that period was for exams, and a holiday is normally after exams. If you finished on the 15th you had approx 5 weeks before the 6-7 week summer begins so you still have 11/12 weeks overall. I myself did have study leave and my last exam was on the 22nd, but I, like you, also have 11/12 weeks off. No more, no less 😉
laiba OHH i get you
Omg I’m so scared for results day. My grades determine whether I go to the sixth form I want to go to or not
Tumblr Xxx same
Urgh same!!!
+Tumblr Xxx good luck!
Tumblr Xxx I hope you get the grades to get into the sixth form u want, good luck!
Tumblr Xxx same
"Get some work experience"
Thanks corona...
Anyone here may 2021 when they have broken up from year 11 and have till September still for college
@@Ounjai1575 I'm not too stressed
Just think everyone has to do it and people have done it before us so its gonna be fine
My to do list before sixth form: sleep

*WELL DONE ON YOUR VOGUE JOB!!*
Noo thank you so much for this and introducing me to the course website! I hadn’t even thought about doing something like that and seeing as I’ve just finished GCSEs and had a super long summer already I was getting bored lol. Deffo excited to try it out x
amazing! Hope you enjoy x
I AM SO GLAD YOU UPLOADED THIS NOO! I love you 💟💟
You should have just made a super short video and say that everyone should just make the most of the summer because once 6th form/college starts everything goes downhill from there.
such a perfect video for me thank you! and wow congrats on your job that’s amazing 🧡
Thank you!
when you desperately want to get a job but don't turn 16 until near the end of summer...
Oh my gosh, I can relate !
That me too it's so sad
do you guys know if you still can if you just have a national insurance number?
Thank you so much! This video has really helped me plan out the rest of my summer :)
This was so well timed for me! Thanks Noo! :)
Okay so I’ve just completely wasted my long summer....
+Abi McDonnell that's alright, good to relax too 😂
Sameee
Video starts at 2:31
I did the nuffield placement over the summer in year 12 and it was such a great insight, but i didnt end up going into biomed😅😅 wish i'd seen this video before starting sixthform
Once you've finished at vogue please film a video on your experience and how you got the internship xx

+MØ SW1FTZ 200 whichever you'll enjoy more and speak to teachers about prospects after x
Noo Stenning thank youuu❤💯💯💯
Wish I saw this before going into sixth form. Can we please have the going into Yr 13 video next coz at this moment in time I don't think these holidays are going well 😥
Omg yes Noo I need the one before year 13 you're a life saver! 😂❤
Also could you maybe do an advice video on personal statements I'm so scared to write mine 😥❤
I have one already! Check the playlist x
loved this, so helpful. i’m about to go into sixth form and I am so nervous, especially as it’s results day on Thursday😂 I don’t know if it’s your style of video, but I need some outfit inspiration for sixth form as it’s quite formal and I have no idea what to wear!
+Nicole Wilson good luck with your results! I'll definitely think about that kind of video, maybe a haul!x
Noo Stenning thank you so much! that would be so helpful, thank you.. completely up to you though x
hell yeahhh new videoooo
Lmao I am watching this 10 hours before my first day of sixth form, we stan a smart queen
+Lara Tareg 😂👏
I was just thinking what a good idea it would be to get work experience and we have 6 months off before sixth form.. but then I remembered we are in quarantine
I’m sorry you guys can’t get work experience :( but if I’m honest it’s not even that necessary it’s more of a bonus/boost - extra reading, online lectures and courses are really good too x
Noo Stenning yeah, thankyou x
Wow congrats for getting an intern at vogue!! Can you please do a video on how you got it?? Or what it’s like working there?💖💖
+LifeAsNajmiina I've answered it in my pinned comment! I might make an experience video x
Amazing. God bless you.
Please make a video about your internship at vogue! that is so amazing and cool omg? How did you get the job and what was it like!
Work experience
Job
Read course (AS booklets to understand )
Look at universities
A little bit longer, mines 6 months 😭😂😂
No GCSEs gang1!!!!1!!1
I had such a plan of treating myself after GCSE’s.,.. hmm didn’t quite go to plan
My gcses are cancelled this year and I’m hoping I’ll get the grades for 6 form! I have a conditional offer so as long as I get my target grades I’ll get in, in so scared I won’t get them as I didn’t take mocks seriously :(
Good luck! X
I'm sure you'll do well
Noo Stenning thank you ❤️
S M thank you :)!
Fox Burton aww don’t worry me too! I’m supposed to pass almost everything apart from science (just under a pass ☹️) and maths, my worst subject! I got a 2 on my mock for it :( my worst memory associated with maths was in year 6 when we did a mock for SATs and I got pulled out of class only to be told I got 1/50 on the whole test and I was balling my eyes out! But good luck for the rest of results :) (I’m retaking maths too) oh and not to mention when in primary I tried to do maths homework and my mum would get very angry with me after explain the same thing multiple times and me still getting it wrong and she screamed at me and walked off and wouldn’t talk to me for rest of evening and when I tried to hide while she shouted at me I’d cry in the bathroom, dont worry she isn’t a bad person at all! She’s Ukrainian and I understand that’s just how she is coming from a relatively strict country I suppose. But she’s overall a lovely person and wouldn’t swap her for anyone else’s mum :) she understands my difficulty in maths ☺️
*crys in quarantine*
Also quick not for new year 1w coming in September college/sixth form is no where near as bad as the comments have made it. Its a lot harder than gcses in that there's more work to do but if you utilise your free periods you have plenty of time outside of college to do stuff you like. It's so much more fun and motivating to do college work than secondary and not to mention the courses are only 2 years which fly by so quickly, the years feel much faster than in secondary school.
So true! I completely agree, some people do struggle with the change but I hope if they have an idea of what it’s like it may help :)
Which a levels did you do by the way?
@@irrelevance3859 Business, IT and Media
I’m doing English Literature, photography and sociology (or English language)

could you do a advice video on how to get a internship at vogue? xx

@@susannahwillis1329 ayyy
could you do a video about your internship with Vogue? I think that would be v interesting!!
it's in my pinned comment :)
I needed this! I’m moving back to england after living in tbe philippines for four years. There, we finish school in april, and sixth form starts in september. Imagjne how long that summer will be for me this year! Very helpful❤️
Hi can you help me? I want to go in 6th form but do I need GCSE ? You know I am from France so I don't know if I can
@@MG-lv5ij You don’t need GCSE’s to go to sixth form in the UK when you come from abroad :) In the Philippines we didn’t have GCSE equivalents but we had report cards so I used those when I was applying. My advice is that you research what sixth form you want to go to and email them asking what their requirements are if you don’t have GCSEs. They’ll most likely ask if you can provide any documents that have your grades in all your subjects, and then they will compare it to what the GCSE standards are. Don’t worry, you will definitely be allowed to go to sixth form but the application process is just a tiny bit more complicated :)
@@larajan8240 Thank you so much !!! You're helping me a lot. I have another question. I heard international student can't go in public school and only in private (that mean we need to pay), is that true ? Also, do you know a good 6th form college ?
@@MG-lv5ij hmm, I’m not sure about international students because I have British citizenship so I didn’t need to pay. I know in my sixth form (which is public) there are lots of international students there, but I think they had to pay a fee. But again, It might be a good idea to email the sixth form college to ask how their system works :) I go to Hills Road Sixth Form College in Cambridge, which accepts international students even if it is public. It’s the best state school in the UK so I recommend it! Also Peter Symonds College in Winchester too
@@larajan8240 Thank you so much again ! Have a great day
Going into year 13 now just finishing year 12 if anyone has any questions for year 12. I did BTEC IT, BTEC MEDIA and Business A-Level :)
What kind of work have you been doing in your vogue internship it sounds so interesting! X
+Krishna Patel I may make a video on what it was like x
Tip for those who are starting; sixth form isn't hard. It's long... Very very long... (it's essentially GCSE's on steroids) Exercise to get stamina and try to concentrate for prolong periods of time.
50. cal headshot what subjects did you do?
@@Egirl_Slayer government and politics, economics and psychology.
i’m sorry this is so late but how was politics and do you recommenced economics ?
those seagulls were rlly going for it
+Aspalax 😂
You cant write a cv though if you dont have work experience or your gcse grades yet.
Aliya Khatun-ali you write your predicted grades and then you write things that could be considered a job like babysitting. if you haven’t then don’t write it
We wrote a practise one just after GCSEs finished all the personality stuff can be filled in like a general overview of yourself and for now use predicted grades
+Aliya Khatun-ali that's not true, a CV is just a reflection of you and your achievements. So unless you've had no hobbies/skills/successes in the last few years you can most certainly write one, it just won't be as full as someone who has grades and a job x
already have and got a job
Your Girl Aliya I did in yr10 and got work experience. You just talk about your predicted grades, hobbies and achievements
Why is she so prettyyyy ?
omg how did you get a vogue internship??
+ella clarice I've answered in my pinned comment!x
Hi can you do a video on a level geography please x
I THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA BE A KIND OF SUMMER BUCKET LIST GUIDE LMAOOO
Congrats on the job
Can you make a video on how it is so far and how the process was?
thank you x
I’m literally typing up what to do in summer 😂 we got 12 weeks off
wow you are even more badass with that vogue internship
How did you get an intern spot at vogue??? That’s so cool💕
I've answered in my pinned comment x
2:32 to actually start the video 😳
Chloe'sLife life saver 😊❤️
why would it be a bad idea to look at unis now? even if you don't know what course you'd like to apply for surely knowing what the different unis are like will help you once you do know right?
I believe I said that no? Having a brief look is what I recommend, I think it's wrong and stressful to properly look when you don't know how your a levels will go or what you enjoy :)
Hi ! I want to know, I'm a student in France so we don't have the same school sistem so can I go in 6th form without GCSE ?
Also, can I take Fine Arts without having mathematics ?
Thank you for your time !
Could you do a video on how you got a job in Vogue?! 😍

LEAVERS OF CORONA🙋♀️
Yesss
Hey Sarah - think of it this way it could have been a natural disaster, a war or even a famine. We're privileged to live in a country where things aren't adversely affected and even though corona has hit the entire world - you have to just accept it as a major challenge - and look beyond that. Ask yourself where you want to be post corona - in fact check out some of our tips/advice for students like yourself: czcams.com/video/juxECTCSAtM/video.html
The first one is not really a choice anymore thx corona
U LOOK KINDA PERSIAN!!

+Okay_ Draco that's so annoying! Keep emailing to check x
Going into sixth form and I’m planning on doing politics, economics, English literature and philosphy/ethics. But I’ve been told to not bother with 4 and drop one, has anyone got any advice? xxx
Depending on which of those you like least go with that, or I would say philosophy/ethics is something you could do in your spare time rather than an a level in it x
Noo Stenning thank you :)
all i’ve done is sleep lool
How do u have that much confidencs
i’m on holiday for my sixth forms induction day during the summer... should i be worried? lmao what am i missing?
