Wow it's been a while since I've updated this!! Life's been pretty busy so far, with the never-ending supply of SACs and tests. I'm meant to be studying for the upcoming spec sac that starts tomorrow but I feel like I've done enough integration to set my mind on fire. I've been meaning to update this for a while now, it just took a lot of procrastination and other stuff to finally get around to this.
I had my predicted atar meeting last Thursday and let's just say the results were
underwhelming. I'm currently predicted a 95.72 which isn't shabby but it's nowhere near enough to boot me into med.
I was predicted pretty generously for biology and chemistry and about average-ish for english but my goodness, my predicted for spec and methods were very, very, very low. I was pretty surprised with it considering I
thought I was doing a-okay with my maths. (I got a solid roasting from my parents when I got home
). I did consult a couple of my friends and the guy who duxed methods last year (in yr 11) also thought his predicted was a lot lower than he anticipated. I guess I'll just have to put in a lot of extra effort
and yknow, maybe do my homework .
Last week I completed the dreaded week long methods sac and the equilibrium chem sac. Methods was pretty alright,
and dare i say fun?? however chem was a disaster. I semi-understood equilibrium and I did pretty well on the test so I don't know what happened to me during the sac. I'm disappointed with myself because I feel like I could be doing a lot better.
This months/weeks agenda: (depending on how I go with keeping up to date with this journal)
- Update this journal
- Hand in homework on time
- Do way more UCAT prep (my test is 40 days away )
- Do well in my spec and bio sacs this week
- Try to not hate the Lieutenant
I'm dreading the next few weeks because there's a sac every week from now on which is absolutely great! Oh well, I guess we just have to wait and see how they all turn out!
Some non-school related stuffI've been pretty keen for the end of year 12 because I really want to travel to Europe with some friends or do a great ocean road roadtrip! I've been doing some planning and my parents weren't to enthused by the idea of me travelling abroad with a group of young people when I'm not even 18 so it seems like a bit of a no go but you never know which way the winds can blow!!
I had my formal equivalent last Saturday and 1. It was a let down because they can't even steam broccoli right (the rest of the food was pretty rubbish too) and 2. everyone looked super amazing in their dresses and suits!! Kinda happy I wouldn't have to do it again in (food wise) but I wouldn't mind another little formal dress up event hahaha!
Thanks for the read if you've made it this far ahaha! I'll try and update this more often!
