Same 😔
@@bakihanma8993 Same though my A levels aren't linear so i finished my As level
im starting this september
i start at the end of aug and im already stressing my left butt cheeck of
@@axelhofste2636 good luck, I’ve finished year 13 now, it wasn’t easy but u get through it
I'm so scared to go to year 13, feel so unprepared and I need to start writing my personal statement but I have no idea how to start haha, but I will persevere !
Winterfell El same. I think the beginning of the personal statement is always the hardest
Nosheen Zahir true
As someone who applied last year my biggest advice is to start small. Start listing the extra things you've done regarding your course. So just in your phone notes as you do them or as you remember them start like: NCS, magazines/articles, additional lectures, work experience.
Once you've done that, open up a document and flesh each little point out. Explain what skills you gained from each experience and why it makes you want to study your course/ why it means you'll excel at uni.
From these fleshed out sentences start grouping them into paragraphs. For example, my grouping was : Biology (and relevant work experience and articles), chemistry, extra curricular like NCS, extra curricular drama. That kind of structure.
Then there's your first draft. Just remember your personal statement will feel awkward to write AND read but that's the nature of it. Also the first draft will be awful. That's just how it is. Take your first draft personal statement to a teacher and ge them to read for spelling/ grammar mistakes and to ensure it reads well. Correct anything the teacher tells you to, then take it back to them and repeat until they say it's good. If in doubt you can then take it to another teacher and another. Get it checked as many times as you feel like you should until it's perfect in your eyes. And honestly it's really easy to do this. I did mine in the summer and got it checked and I'd sent my UCAS off by the second week of October.
I'm so freaking scared... I've only just started writing mine and I've only just started revision of AS materials..
Winterfell El sameeee
Even though I’m going into Y13 this year, a tip I’d give is clean and sort your room ready for next year. Last year, I really noticed that I revised more often/more productively when my room and desk were clean. I’m also sorting the stuff I put off like my wardrobe so I can store ironed clothes in it, making getting dressed in the morning 10x easier (my wardrobe was just full of crap that I didn’t want in my room but didn’t throw it. I feel so much better now that it’s gone and I can only imagine how good I’ll feel once the room is fully done and the rubbish bags are gone)
Oh my god, YESSS!!! ^^^ too true x
This is great if your not moving house the week you go back to school😂
That feeling when year 13 is two weeks away and you’re feeling SO UNPREPARED I’m sure this video will help me thank u Jade
ME LAST YEAR!!! Honestly, I really hope it can help!! Good luck ❤️ x
UnJaded Jade thank you!! ❤️Good luck for your results, too.
😱 only two weeks I hadn’t even looked at the calendar 😭
@ao4698 wya now
Everyone warns about the jump from GCSE to year 12 but NOBODY warns about the jump from year 12 to year 13. Personally, I found the yr 12 to yr 13 jump was much bigger, so if (like me) you didn't find the jump from GCSE to year 12 that hard, please be aware that year 12 and year 13 are NOT equal in terms of work load and difficulty!!
Can you please explain?
@@songstudio406 she said that 4 years ago 😅, I think what everyone means is that the amount of time you need to be investing in your revision needs to increase. E.g you may have to do a lot more homework’s in a week or set lots of independent learning on small topics. Or you may be set a past paper to do in class or for homework.
I'm scared for year 13 bc my year 12 mock results were really BAD. I hate that I didn't take year 12 more seriously
Rhea Cunha omg same! I relaxed waay too much and now u need to revise my ass off
lazy rn your username describes my entire of year 12
Rhea Cunha 😂😂 thats y i chose it.. Basically my whole life.. Im so scared for bio and chem😭
lazy rn I do the same subjects as you and psychology. Bio is a mess, don't even get me started
Rhea Cunha thats why physics is the best.
jade: I hope your having a lovely summer
me: sat at home for the 9th week of quarantine
I feel so stressed about y13...
1.You have to do well in the exam
2.Find an appropriate university
3.Find a course you are interested with
4.Do extrascholar activity to put in your uni-CV
5.Deal with mental breakdown
6.TRY to stay socialize and healthy
this is came up in my recommendation and it is now lockdown so year 12 was a waste! going into year 13 and still doing exams at the end of the year after the 2 months being off is gonna be SOOOO stressful. summer is not seeing me 😔
what a level subjects are you doing
Shadria Namuga which spec? I’m on AQA and my teachers barely finished it 😂
summary :
1 - get some coursework done!!!!! (esp history )
2 - if planning on going to university - do research, compare universities, think about if you wanna stay at home or move into accommodation, and make sure you know which course you want to do (if unsure think about which subject you enjoy, write down what things interests you and have a look from there)
3 - personal statement :( - summer of year 12 - 13 need to read books, articles, do work experience, so you can write a list of relevant things towards to your personal statement, have a go at writing it (first draft) so you're not struggling and it's out of the way
4 - make sure you have all the essential revision notes from year 12 to revise it during year 13 (flashcards, mindmaps, online notes, whatever helps you to revise) so that it is all there ready for you and so you're not running behind - anything you struggled with in year 12 go over it for the last few weeks of the summer holiday, just go over some of the content of year 12 so you don't fall behind in revision
5 - enjoy your summer, don't revise all day everyday, you deserve a break and deserve to have some fun before year 13 starts, go out friends/family
if taking 4 subjects and finding it difficult think about it over the summer and consider dropping it, if you want as you would rather get 3 amazing grades than 4 that you aren't as proud of
Good luck and don't over work yourself too much or stress yourself out you've got this and hopefully you will get the grades that you want and deserve :)
You are so right! There are no videos to help year 12 to 13... why?! But this is great thank you x
I wanted to throw my 2 cents in about starting a personal statement cos that's probably one of the worst parts of the uni process.
As someone who applied last year my biggest advice is to start small. Start listing the extra things you've done regarding your course. So just in your phone notes as you do them or as you remember them start like: NCS, magazines/articles, additional lectures, work experience.

When you’re putting off history coursework as you watch this damn. Im halfway through this video yet this has been the most helpful information I’ve received thank you so much Jade!
Arnelle literally same lol
HAHaha I love that 😂 thank you so much! I'm so glad this was able to help you!! Lots of love (& good luck with the history! YOU'VE GOT THIS!) x
Thank you so much! :) x
Ahh, this is exactly what I need, I'm so scared for Year 13 because everyone keeps warning me of how stressful it is! And like you say there's literally no videos on it, thank you, Jade! x
A tip for anyone going into Year 13 - notes organisation ! I found it so helpful before the start of year 13 to list on a word document all the different resources I used for revising each subject or certain topics within a subject (e.g. for geography I used 2 different textbooks, a revision guide, my teachers PowerPoints, then certain online websites I'd found etc.) as then I could make sure I had covered every piece of information necessary from my year 12 content and know I was using the best sources to collate different sections of my notes. This definitely helps to then condense notes later on as you know you won't be missing out any information that might come up in the exam xx
You are like a mind reader Jade, I have been looking for a video like this but all I could find was advice for starting year 12! Xxx
I’m so glad you mentioned retaking AS because I have been shunned for doing it myself, just out of people’s pure ignorance. It is hard seeing all your friends move onto uni but knowing I have a second chance is helping me keep sane. Good luck to everyone getting results tomorrow💓
I just finished year 12, there was one of those people in each of my classes and i found them very helpful with understanding and getting used to the subject :D
Hope ur result goes well I am struggling to sleep so I am watching your video
JADE I HAVE 4 DAYS I CANNOT DO THIS ALL IN 4 DAYS IM AHHHHHHHHH
I’m starting year 13 next week and absolutely dreading it
who else is going into y13 this september ahhh
So nervous, especially with all the online learning disruption this year ! Do you think they may put in place adjustments to the exams?
@@T_S135 probably just reduced content
Thankyou so much for this Jade!!! Lately I’ve been stressing about revision during the summer before y13 and this has been a big help in calming myself and seeing things much clearer! Good luck with your A level results tomorrow, fingers crossed for you!🤞💗
Thanks Jade! This is exactly what I needed! ❤️
Thank you sooo much!!! Literally what I need❤❤❤❤ good luck with tomorrow I've got so much faith in you, and I'm so excited for you!!!Xxxxx
love you so much jade and thank you so much for this video!! hoping the best for you tomorrow 💕
I just got into year 10 and the tipps still help really much. Thanks for an awesome video ❤️
thank you so much for all of your tips, i really felt like i needed this little video, gave me a boost to try before year 13 hits!!!!
Thank you so much!!! I’m was super worried about next year and I was feeling super unprepared. I’m editor of the student paper, and i run my own club. On top of coursework and revision and applying to uni i was panicking. Thank you for putting it all in to perspective! 💗
this is just what I needed !!! I’ve been so stressed thinking about going into year 13 but this video has reassured me. I was really guilty about not doing any work so far this summer but now I don’t feel as bad, and actually feel motivated to do something productive!
Thank you sooooo much for this video!!!! I still haven’t started my personal statement oops or any of my coursework but will defo start it xxx
I've been stressing all day about uni and was doing research sooo this is so helpful and calming rn💕💕
This honestly helped me so much, moving into year 13 is nerve racking but also exciting! Thank you Jade! xx
Thanks for this Jade, I've really been stressing about going into year 13. Love your content! Xx
you honestly help me so much every word you say is comforting and helpful, espically where you said there is no shame in retaking year 12 because that may be one of my options. thank you
Omg i've waitted for this vid like FOREVER!!!!thanke u xoxo
This was so helpful and definitely came at the right time, for the past few days I’ve been worrying about what I should be doing to prepare as I want to go into year 13 feeling confident and secure with all the stuff I learnt it year 12. 💛
This made me feel so much better at where I am right now going into year 13. Feeling like I’m more prepared than I thought I was. Anyone else got mocks when you go back? Thank you Jade for giving key info we need. 🙏🏼
This is perfect, thank you! Going into Y13 and absolutely petrified but going to take it in my stride ☺️
This is EXACTLY what I needed, thank you so much!! (And good luck for results day tomorrow, we're all proud of you regardless). x
Love you Jade! Hope you'll be happy with your results tomorrow you've probably done amazingly. X
Thank you so much for this! I’m struggling to get motivated after giving myself a bit too much time to do nothing 😬 but this was super helpful, and GOOD LUCK FOR TOMORROW! Hope it all goes well, my brother is also getting his results so I’m nervous! Love all your videos so much xx
Your video has actually saved my life, I know that sounds extreme but your advice was actually what I needed right now. So thank you!! Also congrats for getting your own amazing a-level results!!
You look lovely in this video Jade!! Good luck for tomorrow - hopefully it all goes well for you☺️💓

This is what I needed !! Thank youu!! I was literally making revision resources right now as I’ve been free today😂 I hope year 13 goes well and hopefully it will with your advice :)💛)
Your advice as to how to choose a university course is great. One of my teachers made me do that - I found the list of what you (dis)like about your A level subjects particularly helpful.

Thank you so much Jade, I really needed this! 😁😊
I’ve had such a busy summer and when I’ve had free time I’ve just wanted to relax. I go on holiday on Friday so I’m only going to have a couple of days before I go back for yr13 but this was really helpful, so thank you ♥️
Ahhhh oh my goshh I needed this video,! Aww happy for you that you went on Sky News, congrats! Good luck for tomorrow, Jade and any other Year 13's reading this :D
Good luck for results day tomorrow! I have faith in you xx💞💞
I’m from Belgium and I’m in my last year of uni but I still watch this because you’re just so motivating!
Thanks so much for this!! Best of luck for tomorrow, I’m getting my AS s too 😬 whatever happens is meant to happen and I’m sure you’ll be happy whichever wonderful place you end up! C

Xx
Im not even going into year 13 but its jade so you have to love the content
Right hello I love you xxxx
I just moved to year 13 and this video was very beneficial! Thank you so much ❤
Exactly the kick up the backside I needed lol. Thanks for this :)
Jade, good luck for your a-level results 💜
Jade this was a perfect video and thank you so much for the tips 😌🙃😍
You're like my teacher...teaching me new things so that Ill become more prepared for the future years to come 🤗
u don't know how much I needed this wow thank you. best of luck for tomorrow! lots of love xoxoxo
Thank you so much for this! (Especially point 5! I’ve been so so stressed about if I should be working so much everyday and I just needed a little bit of reassurance that it’s ok to relax!) good luck for tomorrow!!!
Awhh I'm so glad it helped! ☺️ and YESSS!! Literally, that was me last year! Please do enjoy your summer! You deserve it xxx
I was literally thinking the other day that no one tells you about the jump between year 12 and 13 and then this video popped up, thank you jade it really helped. I would say another tip would be to sort your life out as-well as school stuff like tidy your room, sort your stationary and organise the summer and the first few weeks x
Thanks a lot starting year 13 this summer, this video helped a lot :)
Good advice! I finished my EPQ in the summer before it was due, and it was the best decision I made.
Thanks for the helpful video, Jade! All the best for results x
Deffo needed this !! I’ve been looking at so many UA-cam videos to find something like this ! I’m so so so scared for year 13 I feel like I’m already going to fail ! Also JADE U LOOK BEAUTIFUL 😍😍😍 good luck for tomorrow!!
this is such good advice i found year 12 to year 13 sort of alright ( a part from science) but what i found was my subjects that i took the jump was bigger from year 12 to year 13 and not a lot of people talk about the jump from12 to 1 more year 11 to 12 and it is important to talk about it because i was too relaxed going on and never realised it could get harder but it is manageable as year 12 put me in the mind set for it , thanks for talking about this Jade !! xxx
Jade good good good good luck with your results you'll be fine i know you'll be fine!! please do a live reaction of you getting your (amazing) results!!!
I get so motivated when I watch your videos. I love it! 😍
hey!💞 I just wanted to say all the best for tomorrow (which you won’t need!) but whatever you get I’m sure you will know how to deal with it amazingly, I’m not sure if you’ll read this message but if you’re feeling nervous for tomorrow take your own advice and watch back your own videos because honestly they are so motivational and inspirational for others and no matter what you should be so proud of yourself not only for the work you did at school but everything you’ve done for everyone else too. You really are an incredible person and I really hope you get the results you deserve and wanted tomorrow, because there isn’t someone that deserves it more ❤️ you will get through this!! xxxx
All the best for tomorrow, Jade... Whatever grades you get, I hope you are happy and satisfied, and very proud of yourself for working so hard! :)
Good luck for tomorrow! I know you worked so damn hard 💛💛
Another outstanding video filled with great advice. I started back at school today and currently working on Higher Biology and Higher P.E. here in Scotland (Going to Uni for sports science). Thanks to your videos i've already started studying and learning the content. I'm glad i found you in time, keep being a positive brilliant influence. Hope to meet you one day and have a chat :) x
This was so helpful , thank you jade 🧡🧡
Always tuned in to watch my favourite UA-cam haha☺☺☺
Beautiful makeup, Jade. Good video! Can you please make a similar video about a jump between year nine to year ten. I’m starting year ten in a couple weeks!
Good luck for results day!
Loved this video, and especially the thumbnail! It was so helpful 💖😊
This was EXACTLY what I needed! Thank you! Xx
Omg I've been waiting for this video for so long... Thank youuuuuuu
So next week I'll start my year 13 and I've just watched this video 😥 BUT thank god, this summer I looked for some univs and you know some majors and all that stuff but I'm still struggling with taking a last decision. Anyways .To prepare for this year I just did some maths/chemistry/nuclear revision and this step is really important to refresh your mind and to have a big boost to start your school year and if you already started your school but you didn't do any revision better start right now bc this step is utterly basic. And of course the other steps n ways in this vid .Thank you jade and thank you *the one who's reading
Let's make this year full of success.
I love your videos. I'm not even from England but in October I'm going to college and I find your videos very useful and extremely motivating. I just wanna say thanks for that cause until October I have load of stuff to make up and stil trying to deal with it.
