I totally relate - the exam technique guidance is AWFUL 😭I have a video talking about my GCSE drama tips which I hope is helpful, and there are tons of other good studytuber videos too that I watched - good luck, you've got this! 🌟

Hey! No worries at all, I'm so glad it was helpful 🤍 Yes, there are lifts on every corner of each building so you will have no problem! When I was moving in, they also had little trolleys available so you could put your luggage on those and make it even easier! I hope your move-in goes well, and that you enjoy living in Canada Water <3

@@kyliesakura Thank you so much for your information! ❤️ I’m also curious that is there WiFi in Canada Water and if yes, how can I know the password for this WiFi? Appreciate it!

@@zyxx3890 yes there is wifi - don't worry! It's a company called Ask4, you can have up to 5 devices on it at once, or you can pay to upgrade for more devices / faster wifi. You will get sign up instructions when you move in, and make an account that way 😊

@@kyliesakura That’s brilliant! Thank you so much ☺️

It's different for everyone, and you know yourself better than anyone, so I can't say for sure, but there are lots of factors you can look at to see if that combination of subjects would be a good fit for you! You should balance what you think you might even remotely want to do in the future (at uni, or at work), with what you are good at, and what you enjoy! I think that's the holy trinity, and then also consider other minor factors like variety (eg. economics might be nice as an essay subject compared to maths!). I hope that was even a little bit helpful - I think Economics is a great subject that pairs with anything though, since it is so broad and applies to real-life so much 🥰

@@kyliesakura thankyou so much !! <3

Are O-Levels your equivalent of GCSEs? If so, yes, you'll be absolutely fine, I didn't take GCSE Econ either 🫶

I'm so glad you liked it! 💫 I'm sorry I don't know where in the flat Room 6 is for B208, but I think the noise will be fine! It really depends on what you noise tolerance level is, and how noisy your neighbours are, but I think you'll be alright 😊

I'm sorry I don't :((( I hope you're happy with it though! ;)

AWWWWW I am SO glad! It was such a struggle for me, so it's always the best to hear that I could help other people with it 🥹💛

heyyy! You're so welcome, I'm so glad it helped! Definitely agree there aren't many videos on it since it's new, so I wanted to make something I wish I could've seen 💫! I lived in Block B so I don't even know if Block A has the same colours, but i hope you get a good one, keep me posted ;) !!!

Thank you for responding ! For some reason I thought Kcl students were in only one block so I’m surprised we’re in separate ones considering we’re both at Kcl ! I’ll defo keep you updated. I’m on floor 3, but sadly facing the courtyard ☹️.

@@lydia.goldspink ohhh yeah! You know, actually I forgot that I was originally meant to be in Block A but then because it was brand new there were some delays so got put in Block B! Maybe now all KCL students are in Block A? Floor 3 - same as me! Well at least you can go in expecting a little noise 🙉🙈 Have the best time! I hope you love KCL and Canada Water as much as I do 🩵

@lydia.goldspink Hii!! We are in the same flat :) I think I’m actually in the room next to you ☺️ For some reason this comment just will not post so I hope it makes it to you!

@@xsophiegoodmanx3529 Omg hi ! If you don't mind me asking, what's your insta so that I can add you ?! My comments aren't posting either haha it must be a bug.

It might depend on the exam board, but for me AQA had little to no maths and when it did it was super easy, so that should be fine! (But check which exam board your school does and how much maths there actually is) Yes, economics can be difficult, but if you work hard and make sure you understand everything from the beginning it is really fun and, as I said in the video, it was my all time favourite subject ever!!! If you are interested in economics at all, I obviously highly recommend! Does your school have tasters or allow you to drop a subject if you don't like it after the first week or so? That could be a good idea!

3rd! :)

So glad!! 🫶

tysm 🌟!! Whether or not you share a bathroom will just depend on if you book an ensuite/studio, or if you book a shared apartment / twin room in which case you'd share with someone else! My kitchen was shared between 8 people, but I've heard of flats that had to share between up to 12 sometimes!! So i think it just depends on the layout of your flat 😊 I hope you have a great time living here!

Hi there! I'm so glad you liked it 😊 I don't know about central heating specifically, but every room has a radiator, and you could definitely walk around in shorts as long as the windows aren't open 🤣. The rooms get cold fast if they are, but otherwise I think it's quite well insulated. I haven't experienced living in private accommodation, but I 100% would imagine that student accomm gives you a better foundation for fun socials and events. Canada Water always held multiple social events weekly! And if you get on with your flatmates, sharing the kitchen and using the communal facilities will be so fun! I loved living in Canada Water as a location - so good for students. Good transport links, there's a Printworks (club), rock climbing, Surrey Quays shopping mall, library, and a Sunday Market, just to name a few things! I was going to make a video about the area actually, so I will get on that if it's something that would be useful! 💫🌟 I hope this was helpful, feel free to let me know if you have any more questions that I can try answer! If you do end up living here in September, I hope you have the best time! 💐

@@kyliesakura thank you so soo much!!!🤍🤍

I think it depends on the flat layout! But I am pretty sure this would be sandwiched between Room 1 and 3 so probably not on the edge. Noise should be okay - my neighbour was just particularly loud 🤣 I shared a kitchen with 8 people but I've heard some rooms had to share between like 12 people 💀

@@kyliesakura ahh I see, thank you for the information. Do you know where to get information such as the flat layout? I checked their website but I was unable to get it

@@aud2834 No worries! I don't think the flat layouts are publically available, I only found out about them by living there. Maybe you could email Scape?

all the best bro, we'll pull through, trust ✊

we're gonna smash ittt

So is mine!! Good luck!

update : predicted the mrs lyons 20 marker, section c was crazy tho 😭 my dumbass picked the costume question

its fucking overrrr

thankyou🤭

thankss u too :)

Thank you I really appreciate that :)) good luck, you've got this! 💫

The school I did it at just required a 7 in humanities, and maybe maths I think, but I think it will depend on the school! :)

drama in 3 days!!! Good luck!

@@poloX_FN 2 days gl

drama tmro

Tomorrow and same! Good luck!

Lol same gl guys

This is so real :( good luck with everything! You've got this!

Thank you so much Holly 😊💛 hopefully I answered this question in my reply to your other comment!

I'm so sorry to hear that :( but don't forget that it's just one part of your overall grade. You've got your devising log, scripted, AND exam still to go! Best of luck 💫

Fridge space was not really an issue, but freezer space was! In my kitchen, there were 3 fridges: 2 'big' ones, and 1 small one. There were 8 of us sharing the kitchen. There were 4 shelves in the 2 big fridges, so everybody got 1 each, and that was fine! The space was more than enough, and I don't think anyone else had issues with it. The freezer space was definitely such a squeeze though! My other flatmate ended up using the tiny extra mini fridge as storage space for pots and pans, by turning the power off. Although, as I mention in the video, I am pretty sure that my kitchen was bigger than most people's because it was intended to accommodate a disabled user. I don't think many other flats had that extra mini fridge, and also might have been shared with more than 8 people but with the same amount of fridge space 😬💀

do we have to bring our own pillows and sheets or does the dormitory provide them? thanks for answer❤

@@rba4426 yes you do! The only part of bedding they provide is the mattress protector 💛

I booked through my uni (KCL)'s accomm portal, and I picked the flat / floor number, but I don't think I picked the room!

@@kyliesakurais it noisy living at the far end because it has a door that ppl can open to go to other flats, ie if ur living far from the kitchen but rlly close to the door that connect other flats, would ppl use that door a lot and can u hear them

@@hollyli9651 This is a great question Holly - so that door, we learned, is actually not meant to be used to get to each other's flats! It's actually more of a fire safety / maintenance ease of access door, and so can't actually be opened using our keycards. Our two flats had lots of mutual friends so some people sneakily placed a shoe to keep that door open so they could go through it! Because of that, it was maybe a little noisy, but hopefully that shouldn't really be happening... When people did use that door as well, it set off an alarm which would beep continuously non-stop and so many times we had to call reception to come and turn it off. That was honestly the worst part! But again, that alarm happens because that door isn't actually meant to be used by the students! I hope that helped 😊

@@kyliesakura if we can’t open the door with our card, how did the door open in the first place that allowed ppl to put shoes in between

@@hollyli9651 So the maintenance people can open with their cards and, I wasn't really involved so I'm not 100% sure, but I think it just didn't close properly at one point and my flatmates took that advantage haha :p

you got this! 💫

tysm! 💓

ahhh! I hope you love it! :DD

Hi! Sorry for the late reply - I am at KCL, and I hope to go into marketing or project management after :)

I'm glad you agree - and it seems like so many other people do as well! It has been like 4 years and I am still raging at how AQA took all the fun out of drama... best of luck to you, there are defo lots of really good advice videos for the devising log on YT!!! 💗

YES REVOLT

I'd love to! What sort of videos were you thinking?

@@kyliesakura I've been looking for a comprehensive AQA economics video series, and it would be incredibly helpful if you could create one! It would be awesome if you could explain each chapter in detail, as I'm really trying to master the subject. Economics can be a bit tricky, and having a resource like this would be a game-changer for me and so many others studying AQA economics. Thanks in advance for considering this request! 🙏 Looking forward to your amazing content! 👍"

​@@fluffygiraffe9429 I would love to make a series like that; it might take a while but I'll try my best to get around to it! In the meantime, I definitely recommend EconPlusDal. He has some amazing videos and I think they're pretty comprehensive (if you haven't checked him out already!)

My teacher believes he is more for summary than for actually learning content @@kyliesakura

I had to buy 'Alain Anderton Economics Sixth Edition', but ask your teachers because your school might use a different / more updated one!

hiya, I guess Year 10 has already started - I hope it's going well so far! I don't know what you've picked, but in case you can still change / if anyone is in the same boat and is reading this later: for GCSE Drama you don't necessarily have to act in front of people! You can be a part of a group for the live performances and do the backstage design aspects eg. lighting, costume, set! :)))

Hey, thank you so much - I am so glad 😊! If you haven't done it for GCSE, like me, I would definitely suggest that. I bought the CGP guide and read over it during the summer and it made all the difference!

thanks so much@@kyliesakura

hi, i just started yr 12 last week. im still trying to figure out the best methods for independent work, especially for economics. do you have any advice?@@kyliesakura

Definitely use Quizlet/Anki/flashcards to go over vocab as much as you can, get grammar exercises and workbooks, try and talk to yourself in French as much as possible throughout the day, and immerse yourself in the language - watch your favourite films in French, read translated books, listen to French music :) It really helps! Good luck!

Thank you so much :D! Oh no way - what a coincidence! I never really got round to making my A-Level Spanish video but honestly.. I really didn't enjoy it 😭 It is such a huge step up and so different to GCSE imo... whereas economics seems so much more like its GCSE counterpart. I guess it also depends a lot on what you want to do in the future, if you know? Lmk what you end up choosing! All the best :))

Thank you! I got an 8 :)
