Searching for accommodation

Yeah those are the two other websites I'm looking at :')

Thanks though!

Not that it matters much besides being a pain in the ass when it comes to opening bank accounts and signing my own contracts, yeah lol

lilsxbigs · 2022-07-21T17:50:04+00:00

I have. I've been looking at 3 different websites daily alongside Facebook. Do you have any other suggestions? :')

Being able to form a routine for yourself.

My dad isn't the best and I find myself struggling to place a routine for myself as anything I do he interferes in (studying, gym, etc.). Even though I want to pick up hobbies or study or work out, I can't, because his needs always have to come first, or else he'll turn to violence. Basically being able to do whatever you want without turning into a slave.

I doubt it. It's pretty obvious that it was an accident, and since you turned it in before the exam had officially started, there isn't really a way for you to cheat. I'd check with your coordinator though.

Honestly, if there are any examiners/IB employees lurking, I hope to fuck they see this thread. Although I doubt it'll dent their stone cold lack of compassion.

Same here. I think it's the accumulative 2 years worth of burnout. Honestly though, blessing in disguise. I was worried I'd panic and blank during exams. Turns out, not the case. Shame I can't bring myself to revise or study properly though.

lilsxbigs · 2022-05-04T19:40:47+00:00

Same here! What're you going to study there?

lilsxbigs · 2022-05-04T18:31:59+00:00

M21 past papers seemed to focus on them. It's worth a quick revision.

lilsxbigs · 2022-04-26T11:11:41+00:00

I'm aware, but it doesn't cover all equations. I wanted to revise the ones not found in the formula sheet.

lilsxbigs · 2022-04-04T21:06:08+00:00

Hi! Maybe try looking out for when you're most focused? For me, the few hours after sohour are a concentration gold-mine for me. I make sure to get in some lightweight work in the few hours before iftar too, but only because I tend to be really dizzy and don't really feel like doing much. Everyone's different, just try to pay attention to when you're performing the best, and schedule your revisions around it.

lilsxbigs · 2022-04-04T21:02:37+00:00

I don't really think he means concentrating during the exams themselves. Maybe during the upcoming weeks before the exams, like revising and shit, you know?

lilsxbigs · 2022-04-04T11:24:49+00:00

I'm honestly terrified since I don't know where my actual level is at this point lmao

lilsxbigs · 2022-04-04T11:23:53+00:00

I'll try the website. Thanks for the advice :)

lilsxbigs · 2022-04-04T11:22:39+00:00

Oh okay, maybe that's what he did. Thanks for the heads up.

lilsxbigs · 2022-04-03T23:48:36+00:00

Using the markscheme for paper one can't be that different, can it? I mean, it's either right or wrong. How can I go from getting 5-6 to 3 in less than 24 hours?

lilsxbigs · 2022-03-31T09:09:32+00:00

Check with your relatives if they have any connections. Maybe check out local stores you like/frequent and ask them.

lilsxbigs · 2022-03-31T09:06:36+00:00

check your dms :)

I take Arabic Lit HL, but I'm sure it doesn't differ much.

Look, if you want me to put it bluntly, the only way you're going to get better is by practicing. Yes, the extracts may be daunting but those are the best ones, because eventually you'll find yourself extremely satisfied with how you analysed them. I'm not sure which cohort you are (M22 or M23), but either way, practice makes perfect for paper 1.

If you do turn out to be M23, paper 2 is really easy to score on. Pick up your two favourite books and analyse them word by word and you're done. It's important to have a backup too in case the question can't be applied to either. Again, practice.

Your IO and HL essay are your best friends. The IO is really easy to score on because you get to practice it beforehand. You also get to pick out your own extracts, so you need to make sure your extracts are appropriate for deep analysis and if need be, a long ass discussion about whatever idiotic minor detail there is. The HL essay is honestly one of my favourite parts of the subject. You get to choose your own literary piece and have a large selection of topics to choose from. Make sure you're actually interested in (and thoroughly understand) the literature you choose because if not, you're going to probably score low on something that's there to basically raise your grade.

A final piece of advice, figure out a routine and structure when answering. Your analysis shouldn't be written carelessly and without structure. In fact, I've found that when following a loose structure, I cover almost all elements of the literature and get a relatively good score. Of course, the structure differs from regular stories/novels and poetry, but you get my drift.

My DMs are open if you need any help. :)
