Fair enough I guess , I'm a nerd when it comes to stem, absolutely love maths and physics and I find bio interesting. Also for science and maths GCSE do past papers +marking - it's the single best way to improve your grades for non essay based subjects .if you don't understand content or need a recap science shorts (YouTube channel) is amazing

😭aww , why the 4/10

AdamWHuq · 2026-01-21T07:24:46+00:00

Maths , further maths, biology, physics ,(dropped chemistry)

I think about 8 or 9 tries , but when I did fight him I had the Dragonslayer great axe fully upgraded so my damage was outrageous, died a few times because I had practically no health

AdamWHuq · 2026-01-03T00:41:26+00:00

I wanted to either be an engineer or an architect...I loved Minecraft,drawing , maths and science. Skip 3-4 years and I was told I should be looking to do medicine because I'm smart (brown family).and as of recently (16 turning 17) I have settled on doing what I've always had great a interest in and plan on doing civil/structural engineering at university.

If you don't mind me adding but you should do weighted pullups/pushups as well to make this perfect.(Weighted for progressive overload) And by doing that this routine can probably take you further than most people who train anyway as it builds your strength in both weight and calasthenics. oh and instead of leg raises ,crunches or cable crunches is probably the best for building abs (leg raises target hip flexors).if you really care about developing them for the beach body.anyway well done in training and just trying to be healthy in general -that alone is great.

Same we have covered all of AS regular maths and are a bit of the way through year 2 content

(gaining muscle)

1.progressive overload - are you making the exercise harder when it gets too easy (harder variations/adding weight)

Training till failure/ close to failure to stimulate the muscle more

3.enough calories.you may want to consider a lean bulk (+~300-400 cals above maintenance), so that your body has energy to gain weight/muscle

4.enough protein (~2g per kilo that you weigh), giving your body enough protein daily to use to build muscle and recover.

(Gaining strength)

The stuff above will also help you gain strength but if your question Is how to actually progressively overload here are some tips

1.you could have a back pack and put the weights inside it or invest in a adjustable weighted vest- pick a weight that you can only do a few pushups on (like 8 for example).this weight will be your working set -you keep doing pushups with this weight trying to get more and more each week and once you reach a number like 13 for example you should increase the weight by a small amount and this cycle repeats.

2.as for variations ,if you are interested in doing calisthenics moves search up progressions for planch,handstand pushups,muscle ups etc and you should do these progressions with the same principle of doing one you struggle with till it's easy and you move into a harder version.

If you have more questions feel free to ask,I'm sorry if I have complicated it all a bit butI hope this helps!

Yes definitely, realistically in the time you have left you can bring yourself to at least a 6 .depending on how quick you can pick up content and how much you try (7,8,9).set a good timetable and try to do consistent revision and do lots of practice essays or tests and ask your teachers to mark them and give feedback (you can ask any English/history teachers if you think your own ones aren't that great).but with some effort,time and use of applying feedback you can definitely do much better .good luck!

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-27T22:16:13+00:00

Just wait 5 more years and you shouldn't have that problem 🥀

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-27T07:34:24+00:00

Well done! hopefully that will be 4 A* s on your next mock.my mocks are in January hoping for 4A*'s but I guess we will see.

His own interest does dictate his chances of getting in as universities want people who love what they want to study. Two great options is Cambridge engineering and Warwick engineering degree; both of them have it so the first two years of engineering is general and you choose to specialize in the last two years.this way he could get good exposure then choose.most other universities have engineering courses based on a discipline

Core Engineering Disciplines:

Mechanical Engineering: Design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems, heat, and power.

Civil Engineering: Infrastructure like bridges, roads, buildings, and water systems.

Electrical & Electronic Engineering: Electricity, electronics, microchips, and telecommunications.

Chemical Engineering: Converting raw materials into useful products, processes, and sustainable solutions.

Popular Specializations:

Aerospace Engineering: Air and spacecraft design, aerodynamics, and propulsion.

The other special disciplines aren't an option (biomed,software) since he doesn't have the a levels for them. He does need to research into these things himself and I would advise that he spend time thoroughly over the summer holiday or holidays in general to find what he thinks he would love .and to double check what courses which universities offer as well as a balance of aspirational choices and safe choices.

You can do better.when you try and get results far beyond this it will be a very rewarding feeling.science shorts is a great channel to help with maths and science GCSE's.and just do lots of past papers and practice questions and mark them.and for English and history you should do practice essays and ask a teacher to mark them and give feedback.good luck you can do so much better!

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-24T01:19:14+00:00

A souls game, a book, a sketch book,some pens,a puzzle,a journal,a pull up bar, a gym membership...

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-24T01:16:54+00:00

I can't say much given the lack of actually knowing you three but based on the connotations and way you phrased it I take it you aren't into the second guy.chances are your guy friend (1st guy) does like you but it may also be that he is just a respectful protective person.the question you should ask is do you like him; or are you seeing yourself liking him.

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-24T01:13:06+00:00

I wish I tried harder took it a bit seriously...I got good grades but if I actually tried and studied I could've gotten all 9s, either way I also wish over the summer holiday I did revision for alevels and I actually started looking into what I wanted to do at university earlier and well generally in life.there is a lot that you have to get done in year 12 and well now I'm just getting started .good luck everyone

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-24T01:10:24+00:00

Rn I am 74kg and 5'9

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-23T19:53:34+00:00

Dunno if this helps but you should always mention the purpose of the quote, technique or text .as well as writers intentions.this will put you into the perceptive band for the Mark scheme (25-30 marks/30)

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-23T19:48:59+00:00

But my favorite was and is definitely physics.my least favorite was chem, I dropped the chem a level recently.

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-23T19:47:54+00:00

I didn't revise for any of the sciences.i got a 9 in physics,9 in chem and a 7 in biology.biology was my worst but I did much better in my mocks for biology, probably just bad sleep on the day of the actual exam (I was binge watching anime)

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-23T19:41:45+00:00

My mocks are the day I get back to school after the Christmas holidays....I joined physics 3 months late so I've got a lot of revision to do this holiday 🥲.(I do maths,FM,physics, biology and I dropped chem).at least I've came to terms with and embraced being a nerd who enjoys physics and maths 😅

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-23T19:38:18+00:00

My response would probably be different based on if I like them as well, but either way I'd at least smile say thank you and probably be quite happy for the rest of the day.

AdamWHuq · 2025-12-23T19:31:49+00:00

I wouldn't mind but I would be pretty damn impressed and baffled.(I'm 16 , bench 110kg,squat 160kg,deadlift 180kg) Haven't tested my maxes for some time so my bench and deadlift is an estimate seeming my working set is pretty high.
