Well, I can definitely say the last few weeks have been stressful ones! One of the things about knowing where you want to get to in life is that you know what you need to achieve to get there... and for medicine, thats alot!! Biology seemed to go well, the paper was pretty straight forward, though I spent ages revising protein synthesis amongst other things and quite a few of my main revision topics didn't even make an appearance in the exam! Chemistry seemed like a reasonable paper and C2 seemed ok too, the last question was quite abstract but I managed to handle it (this suprised me!) and came up with an answer which I later disovered was the same as the total maths geniuses in my class *chuffed*!!
Oh well, its all over for now and this has been the most relaxing (and cold!) weekend I've had in quite a while... Although, Mum is still revising for her January exams next week (she's retraining in Occupational Therapy at Southampton University and loving it) but that does still mean that the house is littered with revision notes and files of all shapes and sizes!
Well, I'm going to get back to enjoying not having the feeling of looming homework for a while!

Hey, i'm Keerthi and I went to Medlink too. I don't do A levels so could you tell what topics are covered in those modules and what you have covered generally throughout the AS course. I just want something to compare IB with (which is what I'm currently doing) and what from what I've gathereed it's very different. How's French, is it much harder than at GCSE/iGCSE? oh and if anyoneone else reads this comment, has anyone else done the chemistry olympiad this year, and if so, how did you find it?
ReplyDeleteHiya, sorry that I've only just got back to you, was away skiing for half term... Basically, my biology is split up into main topics and then subtopics, details pf these can be seen here http://www.nuffieldfoundation.org/salters-nuffield-advanced-biology/course#3 and for the chemistry its all a bit more mixed up but heres the specification for the course http://www.ocr.org.uk/download/kd/ocr_9605_kd_gce_spec.pdf . French is alot more ricky than GCSE/iGCSE, I literally did no work for it and came out with an A* in it, but for the A-level I'm having to work loads more just to maintain a vaguely decent grade! And sorry, never even heard of Chemistry Olympiad!
