thank you sooo much! 🧡
thanks mate
Thank you so much, I’ve been wondering if I should learn some of the a level topics early but didn’t know if it would be of any help since I would be going through it at school anyways, so thank you for reminding me that relaxing at this time is important since I’ve been stressing out a bit.
Yes, I think we all need a reminder every once in a while to just relax! x
Thank you so much will definatly look at the website you gave us for my work experience and personally choosing math, further math, bio and chemistry should i still not start revision ?
This video was so helpful!! I feel with so much time I have days where I’m so clueless as to what to do!! Hope you’ve been enjoying your days off so far xx
I’m glad it was helpful! And yes I am really enjoying my summer so far :))
I can’t wait for GCSES to be over… but I’m going to go on holiday for a break, get a job, and go through the content I will learn of my A-Levels
hows it going now?
@@Crocodile3446 hey yeah I did all that, just finished my a level mocks, haven’t got the results but looking at AAB-A*AA. Are you also in year 12? First year has been a bit hectic but I’ve really enjoyed it :)
@@lilia_casburn I'm in yr11 rn was it worth doing all of that
i was just wondering, what do you do with the certificate from springpod? like how would you use it to prove work experience? love your videos!
Hi, have you found out about this?
@@IshtiHDyou can put it on your CV as a qualification or mention it in your personal statement (assuming it’s relevant to what you’re studying at uni)
OMG thank you so much Jeta! this video really helped. I now know that all I need to do is enjoy this time, as well as being prepared for the upcoming year.
I am really glad that it helped! x
Do you recommend doing a work experience or getting a part time job? Which one do you think universities value more?
A part time job is still work experience, so as long as you explain what you gained from it in your personal statement, universities will value both.
What should I do in the summer before year 11?
Hmm I think it might be a good idea to do a bit of revision on the topics you struggle with so that going into year 11 you are at least comfortable with the year 10 content (BUT in saying that, still make sure to relax and recharge)
@@Jeta_ thank you!
i’ve been wondering what i said be doing 🥲 i just feel useless rn lmao 💀 I’ve started making my own videos and my content is gonna be college too :)
