END OF TERMMMMM
Its been exactly a month since my last update – ooopssssssssssssss!!! But anyway, I thought it would be a fitting day for an update as I’M DONEEEEEE WITH SACS!! Forever!! Never again!!
I seriously feel so relieved right not (even though the work only begins from here lolol) and I can’t even imagine how finishing exams will be…
So this term went alright! I had some dodgy SAC results – I def did better in unit 3 than four but I’m still waiting on a few more SACs result which I think I did well in. I’d write some study score goals here but they haven’t really changed from the start of the year so I think we’re good! Also, its so weird, I have moments where I feel like I can achieve 45+ in my subjects because I’m actually doing well (and someone has to get these results right?!) and sometimes I feel like wow…I don’t think I can even manage a 35. I think practise exams will give me a better gauge on where I’m at.
So: some subject specific deets:
Chemistry: I loveeeee chemmmyyyyyy and surprisingly my love for it developed greatly in Unit 4 – Organic Chem is so much better than all that redox stuff. After a dodgy first SAC, I picked myself up well as the year went on, so I do have big plans for this subject. I haven’t forgotten too much from the year, but I need to go over redox/equilibrium the most.
Physics: Got so so bored with this subject towards the end, waves were just not fun. Had a great run in Unit 3 but Unit 4 turned out pretty disastrous. Exam questions seem fairly easy for physics so I’m hoping I’ll enjoy doing practise exams for this.
English: Yeah, nah. Lets not go into details here. I’m getting worse as the days go by. Text Response SAC was horrible and I’m hoping I did somewhat decently on Comparative to make up for this. Kinda hoping exams will be friendly and I’ll get lucky tbh. Also, my expectations for this has lowered dramatically.
Spec Maths: Tbh, its been my chilliest subject all year as theres not much content and we’ve only had 2 SACs. I’ve done 2 exams for this subject and they weren’t toooooo bad. However, I need to practise SO MUCH for this exam – otherwise I can easily mess it up. First SAC was good and the second SAC was horrible (made SO SO many STUPID mistakes). I like doing practise exams for maths so hopefully I can pick myself up. Also…I really need to revise complex numbers.
So anyway, I’m probably just going to chill today and tomorrow and do some smaller tasks (like cleaning) that I’ve been putting off for a while. I’ve done so much school work being at home so I think I deserve a mini break. I have a Practise GAT and Exams (online at home) at some stage so that’s good. In terms of school, I really need to read my English texts again, start my Physics cheat sheet and create a revision planner. I’m actually so excited to get a start on practise exams! I’ve enjoyed being at home this term but I really hope we will be back next term. I think it’ll be awesome to reconnect with my friends and teachers again and get the farewell we deserve. My motivation is still existent and hopefully will continue to grow! I’m just visualising the amount of things I will be able to do after exams, and using that as motivation. I do know that I will not fully enjoy this time if I don’t give my all for exams, so LETS DO THISSSS!!
And for all other Year 12s – we have nearly made it. Another term is over and we barely have one to go. Enjoy every moment, do your best, look after and don’t be too hard on yourself.
We can do this.
