    as someone who has just finished year 13 i would say definitely make your revision materials throughout the year !! i didn't and ended up making all of my notes the week before my exams which was just STRESS so don't be like me. but also just do what works for you. even if your friends / other people are revising differently as long as you are doing the best you can then it doesn't matter how you do it !! go forth and prosper my dudes

    Flashcards are definitely a necessity for biology!! And I’m sure you’ll keep changing your mind about what you want to do throughout year 13 as well, but that’s completely fine! Would really love to see that let’s talk video about uni! Also, I love your top and it’d have been perfect for Pride last week (which I vlogged lol), where did you get it?

  • @eviehallitt8122
    @eviehallitt8122 Před 6 lety +1

    I can relate so much to History! I’ve just finished my A levels and despite revising for my exams since February, I still felt hugely unprepared for History just due to the sheer
    amount of content. I’ve always enjoyed it so much though so I’m planning to do it at degree, grades permitting. What topics do you do in History - I’d be interested to see if they’re
    similar to mine! Love this video (and the rainbow top!) xx

  • @klausmylovely6965

  • @katiehazel912
    @katiehazel912 Před 6 lety

    Hi Lydia. I'm year 12 (same as you!). I study English Literature, Media and ICT. I too have applied to be Head Girl for my sixth form. I had my mocks the same week as you, but I only had one which was English Literature as Media didn't want to do one and ICT is a BTEC and we had done the real exam a couple of weeks before hand. I am thinking of applying to university too, and been on like 3 open days. Now it's the hard time of choosing places and working out what the hell to do 😂 hope you are ok xx

  • @MusicLover-og1jf
    @MusicLover-og1jf Před 3 lety

    Sometimes, teachers either make or break your grades. If they can teach properly, using multiple strategies to make you learn a topic, and we students listen, our grades would literally be A’s. I used to get U’s in math and as soon as my teacher changed, I jumped to a B+.
    I JUST wish all teacher just know how to teach like my math teacher, and not just always go by the book.

    Hello, I live in Pakistan. There study is very hard. You have to write as a book. No your wording at all. No concepts clear and can't make any notes. And you can't do study with out academy's help. Because the competition is so tough. And every want to achieve merit marks. And my routine is to study all the time.
