1. Global Politics - I think I've been going pretty well and my sac marks have been pretty good throughout the year.
2. English - I think I've been decent at sacs but I'm just really worried that I'll not know what to write once in the exam.
3. Methods - I've been doing decently but I really need to get my stuff together for end of year especially finishing my bound reference and going through some key concepts again.
4. Chemistry - I've been doing not-so-great on my sacs this year but I feel like since then I've slightly improved in terms of understanding. I need to get into doing a few more and I might be ok.
5. Biology - I've neglected this the entire year and don't really plan to do much studying leading up to the exam :/

Dreamed it, then real lifed it - well, still trying (;

honestly, I'm not feeling confident for any of my exams but if I had to rank them, it would go like this:

1. psychology - I feel like I know my content mostly but I struggle with answering concisely and writing exactly what the examiner wants.
2.  English- I've done a decent amount of practise at school and I have pretty good unit 3/4 averages but I'm concerned about not being able to adapt to the topic in the exam or just  recycling my practise essay for each part. I also don't think i know enough quotes
3. chemistry- I hopefully want a scaled 40 or a high 30 study score. I've done a decent number of practise exams and there's still time left so I feel alright about it.
3. Biology- I have retained absolutely nothing from this year and I'm full-on panicking. I've literally been relearning the entire year's worth of content by doing exam questions per topic and re-reading notes (5 chapters a day in time for the exam) so I have little to no hope.
4. Methods- I can't approach a practise exam without having a breakdown and my practise exam marks are ABYSMAL. I want that 25 but i REALLY doubt that'll happen.
2020 subjects:
3/4 English - 3/4 Methods- 3/4 chemistry- 3/4 Biology- 3/4 psychology

1. Psychology 100%! I've enjoyed it this year and am looking forward to getting it done.
2. Computing (SoftDev). honestly....... the exam isn't looking so great, but I'm confident I can make up some ground since it's in a while (27th).
3. EngLang. Actually quite nervous about this... especially since it's only 2 hours after psych and my hand is going to die. I'm hella nervous about the essay, but i'm hoping the SAQs and AC will be fine.
4. Chemistry. We literally don't speak about this- the more practice I do the worse I'm getting. It'd be a miracle to get 30
