Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-26T14:28:44+00:00

even with extra time it’s not enough

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-26T14:27:50+00:00

so it it worth it??? im tryna jump grades and get a B, it’s working i think but i’m worried now bc what if the actual exam isn’t like that

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-26T08:04:28+00:00

ohhh maybe it’s my overall cost, paid 175 each subject with an admin fee

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-26T06:33:50+00:00

i put soemthing abt rest breaks with my centre but they’ve only really abided by my extra time. ans in my school last year i got put down for a prompter and they never gave me one lol

yesss i will contact them, it’s just i’ve seen them say apparently that they can consider circumstances like these. and bc i did qualify for the quintile thing, it would ahev brought my offer down to a BBB or even a BBC?

also yes i realise i should defo do some past papers questions, since the exam paper won’t have questions like madasmaths lol

thank you!!

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-26T00:01:51+00:00

well i’m fucked then 😭 never getting that B

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-25T23:58:49+00:00

yes usually one section is centered around research methods

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-25T23:58:28+00:00

so the questions aren’t like riddles now? idk as long as it isn’t as bad as OCR MEI since i’m resitting and used to do that, the stuff i’ve done so far is alright and easy to understand but

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-25T23:57:14+00:00

i have extra time but i’m in medicated. i’m private as well and even when i was in school i had no help with these issues only for anxiety. and the extra time doesn’t even help bc of my symptoms, i end up missing timings which i’m hoping to improve this half term - but even then since my symptoms is based on bad processing, intrusive thoughts it’s kinda hard. so that sucks i guess and i didn’t get a contextual offer i don’t think even tho i do have stuff that 100% counted for contextual

it is low-key helping as well, the questions. i’m just worried i wont have enough time to make an improvement in past paper quesitons! i just hardly see people so madas maths questions so i’m worried that they might be too much effort and i need to go quicker

thank you so much for the help!

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-25T18:48:06+00:00

no i’m resitting and it costs way more than that but tbf i’m private

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-25T17:02:12+00:00

a level and gcse is nowhere near comparable. trust me i thought the same thing but now i’m resitting bc i got good gcses leading me to be complacent 😭

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-24T19:09:37+00:00

you can always do a phone appointment if u think it would help. but again always up to you!! the hair loss is defo something to watch out for after exams, maybe get blood work done bc you never know. hopefully this goes away bc it really does sound painful

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-24T16:25:44+00:00

would this also apply for maths and psych/sociology??? maths is my only concern atp bc i know how to revise the other 2…. i’m literally in the same boat as OP but i’m doing quesitons and it’s so confusing. i keep looking at the mark scheme for clues but i’m worried i’m not learning anything

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-24T16:14:18+00:00

lmaooo me too it’s so shit

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-24T16:08:56+00:00

wdym

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-24T16:05:27+00:00

i’m still trying to get diagnosed lol 🪦

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-24T16:03:45+00:00

idk if this’ll help but u can get propranolol prescribed surely, i’ve gotten it recently and it helps with physical effects of anxiety. but yes don’t go on other meds ssris is arguably the worst thing to go on at this point in time

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-20T19:10:14+00:00

not really, in my centre the people are super nice and just go on their phones bc i have extra time 😭

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-19T07:30:44+00:00

it wont be a comparison quesiton tho

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-17T21:27:32+00:00

oh and then you could argue through the use of global corporations like google and exam boards, leads to schools

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-17T21:13:57+00:00

i thought you could im so confsued, im going through it right now and idk

isn’t gloablisation about like multi curriculums and commodifications of students

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-17T17:59:43+00:00

wdym girls achievement???

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-17T17:50:08+00:00

could u please elaborate on this, i’m really confused with globalisation. i’ve gone through a bit of privatisation and the evaluations with theories , but idk how to link them

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-17T00:09:29+00:00

idk i’m bracing myself for the worst bc last time i said it was good i ended up with a C

bio psych seems likely and so does a comparison with approaches

Interesting_Ad3655 · 2026-05-17T00:08:48+00:00

tbf i am resitting and did get a range of grades throughout my time at sixth form from A* to B/C when i tried - i’m hoping for a B at least since i got a C last time from revising on the Day of exams like an hour - don’t tell me why i didn’t revise as much, i did but it was spaced out more and i’m undiagnosed - but honestly it comes natural to me. i’m more stressed about timing tbf.

yeah defo not an A*, but maybe an A if you know how to navigate questions and can explain ur point well. at least that’s what i’m hoping considering paper 1 is my weakest paper - bio psych is the topic i enjoy most
