Does anyone else feel like since a-levels started you’re just constantly just about scraping through and are constantly behind and constantly anxious about school 🙂
the fact that youtubers can choose where the adverts go makes me so much more pissed off that sometimes they put them in the middle of a sentence lmao, i always thought youtube just automatically put them in
1. 8 hours rule 2. Understand how the exam structured 3. Have quite space for study( table, Library LIBRARY mate)- eliminate distraction * U need ur notes and textbook only. 4. Reasons of being distracted/ procrastinating- face it, remove it. (U don't need to have such long screen time, discipline yourself) 5. Just for 18months- STUDY Hard 6. Be realistic (u either fail or pass - fluctuation of threshold) 7. Put effort and time in for a better results ( good grades matters a lot) 8. Rewatch when u r demotivated. Fighting everyone !!!!!!!!!
I failed my A levels. My teachers didn't support me and always belittled me saying you should just do BTEC. My confidence dropped because they refused to put effort into me. Had I been given a little bit of support and encouragement, I know I could have done good. I think if the environment was more positive, I could have succeeded. Today I'm miserable because I did so bad. I was a straight A student and I don't know where I went so wrong..now I don't have any motivation. I regret failing and not trying hard enough. Guys, try your best and believe in yourself because you can do it!
I failed my chemistry and physics As last year even though i used to always be an A* student the results hit me hard and i didn't know what happened wrong and the reason behind everything but i didn't give up and iam working hard now to repeat the exams i know that its tough but i believe that everything will be alright 🥰dont give up and goodluckkk ❤😍
Same.. i feel like people just lost all hope on me. I no longer feel tht motivation to study. I failed some of my AS level exams and now im just so stressed abt this upcoming Alevel exam. Whenever i asked for help from my teacher, i always felt like a burden to them. They dont seem to want to teach ME because maybe im a waste of time. Like, its better to just polish the smart ones and dump the dumb one right. So rn i rlly just got myself to believe in :)
@@israhussienmm1024 is that possible with 2 to 3 months remaining ? I feel lioe everyone keeps saying that we should start preparing like a yr before but who tf remembers shit they did a year or 6 months ago ughhh
@@aena5995 lol that's true 😂 but i started by reading all the textbooks again and just focused on reading the chapters thoroughly to try and remember the informations, this actually helped alot.
So I recently moved from Uganda to India and I have not even done gcses. I am in year 12 .I was completely lost, I am learning everything for the first time but I am slowly getting the hang of it. I don't think I will get my desired grade. Should I retake the year 12? I feel like I'll be lost in A2 too. If I have a year, I'll get time to familiarize myself with the A2 syllabus. I'm so confused, please help 😭😭😭😭😭
Honestly Ibz's videos really helped me pull my ass together during A levels. I had bad IGCSE grades (like Bs and Cs which is considered bad in Asia) due to depression being in a horrible school environment and I never thought I could get As during A levels. Results came out during January and I got AAA for Bio,Chem, Psy and I truly believe that if you put in the work and just give yourself the opportunity to succeed, you will. My lecturers constantly told us that students usually drop grades in A2 compared to their performance in AS, which is complete bullshit but scared everyone nonetheless. I got B for my Chem during AS which then jumped to an A during A2, so i'm here to tell you that literally anything is possible if you just work for it like Ibz said. Don't let IGCSE , AS or even trials grades stop you from wanting to achieve more in your academics. You just need to learn to trust yourself, cause honestly you determine what you can do.
@@aena5995 i'm not sure about 2 grades up but given your timespan of about 2 months ish, you're gonna have to study literally EVERYDAY, like nonsense kind of studying with tons of practice past years and a lot of determination. Try to really break down how much time you would need to work on specific weak points in a particular subject (like Monday you would do Molarity and Tuesday would be Organic Chem). In the worst case scenario, do keep in mind you can always defer your examination to the later session (Oct/Nov). Talk to the examination admins in your school or teachers that you can trust to give you some advice on whether you should defer or not given your AS grades and how much you are currently struggling with the subjects now. Whether you decide to defer or plough through the 2 months, make sure you don't regret your decision and make it count. Good luck!! :)
@@nicola_paganini well idk if defering is possible as then by oct nov i would technically not be from this school as its my A2 yr and usually the fees is non refundable and then would have to pay for oct nov right? Idk if deferring is a thing , do u mean paying it all over again? Btw is it possible to go from a d or e grade to like a c or d by just giving the A2 pprs?
@@aena5995 you can defer your examination without needing to retake classes, basically you would do the test as a private candidate (this is what most homeschooled students do), in my school, they allowed examinations to be deferred even though you already paid the examination fees for a particular intake (this you will need to check if your school allows this), so the school will usually only charge you some minor admin fees for changing yr examination period (aka you dont need to pay the entire fees of the examination again). For the last part, I think it's totally possible to jump from D/E to a C if you really work hard on it, but it also depends on what level of the grade boundary you're at (is it a high D or a low D) cause it'll be easier to jump grades if it was close to the next grade boundary. Hope that answers your question!
-rule of 8 -studying for the exam- exam prep, looking at examiner reports, exam techniques, doing past papers, understanding what exactly you’re being marked for.. look at mark schemes etc -create a GOOD place for yourself to revise. e.g; library -understand what your distractions are! and remove them from your life!!! (he’s so harsh but he’s telling us to do exactly what NEEDS to be done): -be realistic. there are people who will have to fail, it’s how it works.
I had my mocks before the half term. I turned my phone off from 4:30pm - 10pm every weekday, and I got an A for the first time ever at A Levels. In another mock, I was 5 marks off an A. He’s 100% right, your phone is the biggest distraction, you need to prioritise yourself and your future. This guy reminds me of my big brother, who’s a teacher. He always lectures me so I don’t take him seriously anymore. This dude just gave me a kick up the arse and actually made me feel really bad. I’m going to go revise now because i’m really motivated so thank you :)
I’m not even failing, I just needed motivation for these last 2 months bc I’m TIRED of a levels damn. Learning to sit an exam, with extra time, after not having GCSE exams is fucking tough. I love you all and you’ve got this!
Thank you. I’m in year 12 and I’ve been struggling a lot. Between the lockdown and the fact I’m moving house, I have literally nowhere where I can study consistently, but I’m going to try and make the best out of my situation. I want to get A/A*s but I’m currently working at Ds and I failed my last biology assessment. It’s difficult, especially with lessons being online ahah but I think it’s mostly due to my lack of motivation. Watching videos like this helps me get back on track :)

them ones when you were going through a lot during this half term holiday that you put off revision but now this video has motivated you to work hard as f for the a levels happening in 3 months. (i need a*aa... i'm gonna cry)
when he describes the rule of 8, i realise i have no idea how my day flies past cos i dont feel like i do anything (studying, sleeping or doing wtv i want) for 8 hours. this is crazy
I actually started crying because I felt so bad for wasting this half term. Thank you Ibz, this deffo don’t be my last time clicking this video. Very much needed ❤️ love u the most
Aaaaa I genuinely started crying during this video I did so well in my GCSE’s but I’ve struggled massively with a levels just a lack of motivation and depression and stuff it’s just been a really hard year for me and I really want to do well in my actual exams and hopefully I can turn things around for year 13 aaaaaaaaaaaaa
@ omg. Please don’t do that. You will get through this and I am certain you will achieve the grades u want 💕🥺 just believe in yourself pleas don’t attempt anything like that again
@ Maths A level is easier compared to other curriculums no offence. The IB - HL maths or the further mathematics of A level is actual maths which I found really hard and challenging and yeah physics can be really tough if people didn't take it that seriously when they were younger. This is totally understandable
Thank you for this video. I’m in year 12, I’m a carer and I’m also a terrible procrastinator. I spend most of the time at home but its hard for me to focus and sit down without being interrupted or distracting myself with my only life (online) I’m going to follow this advice a really try my best!
You're such a wonderful soul. I will watch more of your videos and let the ads play just to support you. Well done on what you've achieved so far and blessings for inspiring so many of us.
u didnt listen properely he meant study as wholle as in ALevels school those account from 4 to 6 hours already so all you need to do is revise for 4 or 2 more hours and thats it
@@orangeknight6413 No no, I do not have 4-6 hours of college a day... On Monday and Thursday I have 50 minutes of college, and Wednesday I have 2 hours... It varies, so no I did listen properly and my point still stands.

One month more for my A/Ls and this is the kind of motivation I needed! i've been procrastinating like crazy. I'm gonna stop now (TuT) THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOU'RE THE BEST!:)
Thank you so much Ibz. I really needed to hear this right now. Yeah, you might seem "dramatic" but you're so right and it's true, the only person stopping me from studying right now is me. Genuinely going to delete my social media accounts now
Whenever I’m feeling unmotivated and down, I always come back to this video and it never fails me. Best motivational video I have ever watched in my life❤️
I'm in year 12; I'm planning to prove me Sociology teacher wrong when I do my mocks because she underestimates me so much. But this video has been so helpful for me to understand how to structure my revision and how to deal with toxic parents whilst doing revision. ♥️
honestly this is what I needed right now. I needed to hear this. In the beginning of the video I was like "eh i am bored it's probably nothing," but watching it I understood that THIS is EXCATLY what I wanted to hear. thank you so much 💙
Good luck with your exams!! I finished a levels last year but did history and it was the bane of my existence. A tip that I wish I knew sooner is don’t focus too much on the facts, look at how you actually answer the question because that’s honestly how you hit the high marks. Make sure you know how to answer ‘how far do you agree’, ‘to what extent’ (my personal faves) and any other question starters that could come up (look through past papers + google example a level history questions to get a feel for the type of question). This helps so much, once you know how to answer the question it’s so much simpler to break down your argument (always make sure you have an argument, your essay should be weighted at the minimum 60 your argument, 40 evaluating your argument don’t sit on the fence, we had that rammed down for two years but it’s so important). Idk if you have a breadth and depth paper with your exam board but if you do the breadth paper learn some key facts to use as evidence for each section but make sure you have a clear understanding of if things changed over time, economic + social conditions that kind of thing, the facts should just add to that. The depth paper is usually a shorter time period so with that one look at key events, figures + also wider social changes (with that one you need to know more facts and dates but still don’t overwhelm yourself, if you argue well enough with some pieces of evidence to back it up it can bypass not having a ton of facts stored). Sorry for the long reply, hope it helps I actually miss history now lol I enjoyed the subject so much just hated the revision. Feel free to reply to this if you have any other questions, good luck again!
cobaltmarin hey I’m in Y11 right now and history is by far my favourite subject which is why I wanna take it for A levels. Luckily I’m getting 8s and 9s in all my exams but every time I see something about A level history it’s always stuff like “A level history is the worst” or “avoid A level history at all cost” and I’m starting to get really nervous. Have you got Instagram or anything so I can ask you some questions that I have pls I’m just not that active on RUclips
absolutely love the 'tough love' vibe of this video. bc at the end of the day the ppl that don't care will just be nice and tell u its okay when its not
I am doing my AS levels ( Maths, ICT and Physics) in this Oct/Nov, I really needed to hear this. Thanking for sharing this video. I am struggling with my mental health and those probs really distanced me from studying and doing my school work properly. I hope to continue doing them better from now onwards! Again Thank you so much!💜💜
Thank You so so so much for not assuming that we all have desks at home! The library is in fact the best place to revise, but now libraries have closed study areas due to covid but at least there's the school library xd. I literally broke down half way through this video, i've just been struggling so much with my mental health and i really needed some encouragement and motivation to keep going, so thank u so so much Ibz, Yr 13 is so damn stressful rn urgh! xx
THANK YOU SO MUCH IBZ i needed to hear this - ever since i fluked my mocks i've been so tired and this was exactly what i needed to hear to push me to revise. i'm only doing gcses but this will help me so much at every stage from now. thank you!! :)
It was honestly today where I needed this! I am in year 12 taking English Lang, psychology and religious studies and I feel like I am going to fail. I had double English language this morning and then I was able to come home, I had to hold back tears through the whole lesson because I couldn’t understand (I haven’t been motivated enough to study at all, so I am behind) the content we were doing. I just kept hearing the words “you’re stupid” and “you won’t succeed because you can’t understand what everyone else is doing”, it’s English Language that I’m worst at as well so this did not make it better! You’ve made me realise that I need to take my classes more seriously so I’m going to use these tips and a social media detox (I’ve done one before and it proved to be incredibly helpful!) to help me pull my grades up and so that I can prove to myself that I am not stupid, I’m going to pass :)
I commented on one of ur other videos saying that my entire class is at a U and today we done one of our English papers (I have another on Wednesday) and it literally went SO well for me. I didn’t write enough for othello but for doas i wrote 3 paragraphs and an intro which is the most I’ve EVER done in English (I struggle a lot with time lmao) anyways, I started becoming more productive during this half term n I’m rrly proud of myself. I’ll come back and tell u guys what I got on my English mocks. I’ll start implementing these tactics in my revision for sociology tomorrow and English paper 2 on Wednesday. (Also I just wanna say I started doing around 5-8.5 hours of revision a day in that half term and I’m literally SO proud, throughout year 12 I have BARELY revised (like if I include homework, probably 4 hours a month....)
I have degrees and I tutor as an extra job and that's actually the most genuine straightforward video out there and just the fact you highlight social circumstances that are out of one's control is incredible because the system in Europe tends to overlook social issues that set you to fail ! and youtubers keep on shaming those with struggle by just pre-setting the achievement as only a matter of conviction / motivation.
I keep watching help videos but never actually following the advice, I just like the illusion of productivity. As soon as this ended I went to study and it really helped 🥰
Amazing video, this hit me differently, im doing psychology, maths and economics at a level, and it's my mock week right now. Just smashed by psychology exam, maths tomorrow, thanks for the inspiration. Also im going to university next year (southampton is my firm and UEA is my insurance) to study psychology :)
You know what idk I just keep coming back to this video bc honestly, there are days when the thought of studying makes me sick like I can’t even think about doing my homework or reading the textbook and I’ve only just started my A-Levels. Like I know the last few years I barely have had an education but it’s like the whole world won’t even acknowledge it. It’s actually exhausting sometimes like to sit down and just work. But I’m really going to try. We have a week of break before term 2 starts and I’m actually going to try. I want these 2 years to actually mean something.

I got my first A level exam at the end of May and I am behind in my exams, this has reminded me to put my ass in gear and study.
them ones when you were going through a lot during this half term holiday that you put off revision but now this video has motivated you to work hard as f for the a levels happening in 3 months. (i need a*aa... i'm gonna cry)

when he describes the rule of 8, i realise i have no idea how my day flies past cos i dont feel like i do anything (studying, sleeping or doing wtv i want) for 8 hours. this is crazy
First time ive watched the whole way through a 4 minute ad 😣😂
I actually started crying because I felt so bad for wasting this half term. Thank you Ibz, this deffo don’t be my last time clicking this video. Very much needed ❤️ love u the most
This was also the first time I've not skipped an ad
Stop watching, Stop scrolling, start revising
I started watching this video in bed and by the time it finished I was waiting for my elevator to go to the library LOLLL This VIDEO IS SO POWERFUL
"it comes a point when it's just you and your textbook." couldn't be any more spot on lol.
HOW DO I TATTOO THIS VIDEO ON MY FACE
How did he know I needed this right now.
“ for me i come from a dysfunctional family where everyone is crazy” LMFAOOOO
I needed someone to be this stern with me and to help me get my ass in gear, thanks Ibz!
I’m acc gonna cry I fully got shouted at by this boy. Fam.
Ibz: stop looking at youtube and wasting time. Do your work.
me: *not skipping ads so someone else can get paid*
I feel personally attacked by the 'constantly watching videos like this' :( 😂😂
me: *just finished sobbing about a levels*
youtube: here you go babe x
THIS WAS THE GREATEST VIDEO I HAVE WATCHED IN FOREVER
☺️hi I just wanted to say ......................... *DONT SKIP THE ADS*
Aaaaa I genuinely started crying during this video I did so well in my GCSE’s but I’ve struggled massively with a levels just a lack of motivation and depression and stuff it’s just been a really hard year for me and I really want to do well in my actual exams and hopefully I can turn things around for year 13 aaaaaaaaaaaaa
what subjects do you do?? bc sameeee it’s so hard
chinwe ubah I’m doing maths, economics and psychology and I’m so overwhelmed already
Same...🥲
@ omg. Please don’t do that. You will get through this and I am certain you will achieve the grades u want 💕🥺 just believe in yourself pleas don’t attempt anything like that again
@ Maths A level is easier compared to other curriculums no offence. The IB - HL maths or the further mathematics of A level is actual maths which I found really hard and challenging and yeah physics can be really tough if people didn't take it that seriously when they were younger. This is totally understandable
This video was a BIG wake up call for me. Its time to revise and get those A's!!!!
Thank you for this video. I’m in year 12, I’m a carer and I’m also a terrible procrastinator. I spend most of the time at home but its hard for me to focus and sit down without being interrupted or distracting myself with my only life (online) I’m going to follow this advice a really try my best!
My ad was the video to Watermelon sugar by Harry Styles and I have never been so happy to watch a 3 and a half minute ad
This is the personal attack I needed THANKYOU IBZ
Okay but I was mid way through crying about being a failure Ibz HOW DID YOU KNOW
the netlix ad is trying to get me away from my hustle but i could never!
Everything gets better after A levels😂😂😂
i hope so although some say it gets worse:(
In my 3rd yr of uni and I have to disagree 😫😭
lies I tell you lies!!!!!!
I hope so, I'm almost there
@@user-km4yx6dq5p ouf
You're such a wonderful soul. I will watch more of your videos and let the ads play just to support you. Well done on what you've achieved so far and blessings for inspiring so many of us.
I NEEDED THIS😭😭
Is it just me who feels that 8 hours of studying isn’t possible 😞
yes! me too! sometimes I find it difficult to focus at ALL!!! I can do 2-3 hours TOPS
u didnt listen properely he meant study as wholle as in ALevels school those account from 4 to 6 hours already so all you need to do is revise for 4 or 2 more hours and thats
it
@@orangeknight6413 No no, I do not have 4-6 hours of college a day... On Monday and Thursday I have 50 minutes of college, and Wednesday I have 2 hours... It varies, so no I did listen properly and my point still stands.
Orangeknight64 I did listen properly
Georgia Ewington yeah well then why would you comment this in the first place. You obviously didn’t pay attention
"If that's giving you anxiety, *i really dont care right now."*
Me: 👀👀👀👀👀👀😦😦😦
Tanisha Shriyan I’m sorry that was a bit harsh. Obvs I care and I think if it’s serious please seek medical help. But girl if u just saying that coz yo ass lazy and scared then I’m bringing the slipper
@@IbzMo AHAHAHA response is golddd
@@IbzMo sometimes tough love is what we need, I definitely needed it. I have two months left exactly until my first exam, so I'm going to do my best 🥺
Got a 14 minute ad 😭😭 i hope you do really well at law school!!
Me and my friend were legit speaking about your a level advice vids and how they’re banging and this pops up uno this is a sign 😂 also IDEC I’m skipping no ads get that shmoney babyyyyy💕
One month more for my A/Ls and this is the kind of motivation I needed! i've been procrastinating like crazy. I'm gonna stop now (TuT) THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOU'RE THE BEST!:)
Thank you so much Ibz. I really needed to hear this right now. Yeah, you might seem "dramatic" but you're so right and it's true, the only person stopping me from studying right now is me. Genuinely going to delete my social media accounts now
Whenever I’m feeling unmotivated and down, I always come back to this video and it never fails me. Best motivational video I have ever watched in my life❤️
thank you for this. I speak for everyone when I say this helped me so much.
I'm in year 12; I'm planning to prove me Sociology teacher wrong when I do my mocks because she underestimates me so much. But this video has been so helpful for me to understand how to structure my revision and how to deal with toxic parents whilst doing revision. ♥️
This was very much needed with a week of mocks ahead of me (: thank you!!
I felt so bad for skipping man but it’s 04:06 and I need my sleep 😭🤣 You seem so genuine it’s keeping me attached to watching.
“there was a stamford hill library but i ain’t going stamford hill”😂😂😂 felt that
B6 fully
Hahhahahah
We need more youtubers like this. Period.
I know right..
honestly this is what I needed right now. I needed to hear this. In the beginning of the video I was like "eh i am bored it's probably nothing," but watching it I understood that THIS is EXCATLY what I wanted to hear. thank you so much 💙
First exam in 2 days, definitely needed this type of aggressive and brutal honesty + motivation rn
everyone who does a level history know the struggle mannnn its so long 😭😭🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
big regretsss
Good luck with your exams!! I finished a levels last year but did history and it was the bane of my existence. A tip that I wish I knew sooner is don’t focus too much on the facts, look at how you actually answer the question because that’s honestly how you hit the high marks. Make sure you know how to answer ‘how far do you agree’, ‘to what extent’ (my personal faves) and any other question starters that could come up (look through past papers + google example a level history questions to get a feel for the type of question). This helps so much, once you know how to answer the question it’s so much simpler to break down your argument (always make sure you have an argument, your essay should be weighted at the minimum 60 your argument, 40 evaluating your argument don’t sit on the fence, we had that rammed down for two years but it’s so important). Idk if you have a breadth and depth paper with your exam board but if you do the breadth paper learn some key facts to use as evidence for each section but make sure you have a clear understanding of if things changed over time, economic + social conditions that kind of thing, the facts should just add to that. The depth paper is usually a shorter time period so with that one look at key events, figures + also wider social changes (with that one you need to know more facts and dates but still don’t overwhelm yourself, if you argue well enough with some pieces of evidence to back it up it can bypass not having a ton of facts stored). Sorry for the long reply, hope it helps I actually miss history now lol I enjoyed the subject so much just hated the revision. Feel free to reply to this if you have any other questions, good luck again!
cobaltmarin this was so useful and so kind of you to spend time writing, thank you
cobaltmarin hey I’m in Y11 right now and history is by far my favourite subject which is why I wanna take it for A levels. Luckily I’m getting 8s and 9s in all my exams but every time I see something about A level history it’s always stuff like “A level history is the worst” or “avoid A level history at all cost” and I’m starting to get really nervous. Have you got Instagram or anything so I can ask you some questions that I have pls I’m just not that active on RUclips
swan D no problem, good luck with your exams, don’t be too hard on yourself with revision
absolutely love the 'tough love' vibe of this video. bc at the end of the day the ppl that don't care will just be nice and tell u its okay when its not
I am doing my AS levels ( Maths, ICT and Physics) in this Oct/Nov, I really needed to hear this. Thanking for sharing this video.
I am struggling with my mental health and those probs really distanced me from studying and doing my school work properly. I hope to continue doing them better from now onwards!
Again Thank you so much!💜💜
OH MY GOD MY EXACT SAME subject combination do you have any tips for IT??
@@chizaramoranezi4964 sorry to disappoint you🥲
But I changed my stream.. I’m now doing Biology, Chemistry and Physics🤭😅
I need it. Thank you so much. I mark the minute to come back when I need it 9:30
Thank You so so so much for not assuming that we all have desks at home! The library is in fact the best place to revise, but now libraries have closed study areas due to covid but at least there's the school library xd. I literally broke down half way through this video, i've just been struggling so much with my mental health and i really needed some encouragement and motivation to keep going, so thank u so so much Ibz, Yr 13 is so damn stressful rn urgh! xx
You being so brutally honest about this really slapped me right across the face, thank you
THANK YOU SO MUCH IBZ i needed to hear this - ever since i fluked my mocks i've been so tired and this was exactly what i needed to hear to push me to revise. i'm only doing gcses but this will help me so much at every stage from now. thank you!! :)
It was honestly today where I needed this! I am in year 12 taking English Lang, psychology and religious studies and I feel like I am going to fail. I had double English language this morning and then I was able to come home, I had to hold back tears through the whole lesson because I couldn’t understand (I haven’t been motivated enough to study at all, so I am behind) the content we were doing. I just kept hearing the words “you’re stupid” and “you won’t succeed because you can’t understand what everyone else is doing”, it’s English Language that I’m worst at as well so this did not make it better! You’ve made me realise that I need to take my classes more seriously so I’m going to use these tips and a social media detox (I’ve done one before and it proved to be incredibly helpful!) to help me pull my grades up and so that I can prove to myself that I am not stupid, I’m going to pass :)
dude when you mentioned the desk i literally choked up because i relate so bad? and it is so hard but this is so inspiring so thank you
i fucking love this man
man knows multiple languages and chose to speak straight facts
I watch ibz so much I know all the libraries that were close to him more than I know the libraries near me
Literally only not skipping the ad because of the farewell you gave before it and i understand the trying to pay for law school
I commented on one of ur other videos saying that my entire class is at a U and today we done one of our English papers (I have another on Wednesday) and it literally went SO well for me. I didn’t write enough for othello but for doas i wrote 3 paragraphs and an intro which is the most I’ve EVER done in English (I struggle a lot with time lmao) anyways, I started becoming more productive during this half term n I’m rrly proud of myself. I’ll come back and tell u guys what I got on my English mocks. I’ll start implementing these tactics in my revision for sociology tomorrow and English paper 2 on Wednesday. (Also I just wanna say I started doing around 5-8.5 hours of revision a day in that half term and I’m literally SO proud, throughout year 12 I have BARELY revised (like if I include homework, probably 4 hours a month....)
Sharon Berhane hiya sorry to bother but what’d you get?
Idk Man I haven’t got my results yet but when I get them I’ll notify u, I’m expecting them some time this week but we’ll c.
Idk Man I got a B in sociology and a U in paper 2 English, I’m getting paper 1 on Wednesday
Before the pandemic came in 2020, I had good focus and stuff. I'm in first year rn and I've been a mental mess and afraid of failing. Thanks for this
same
This was the aggressive motivation i needed
I have degrees and I tutor as an extra job and that's actually the most genuine straightforward video out there and just the fact you highlight social circumstances that are out of one's control is incredible because the system in Europe tends to overlook social issues that set you to fail ! and youtubers keep on shaming those with struggle by just pre-setting the achievement as only a matter of conviction / motivation.
I was so tempted to skip the ads but I did it fam !!! Issa big deal
paused the vid at 9:53, imma go study for my test tomorrow and watch this another day, thanks mate
i love him using sociology knowledge whilst preaching
Thank you so much. I’m in tears. I have 5 days to my chemistry practical paper and I’m in trouble but I know your advice will help. Thank you 😭😭😭😭
I keep watching help videos but never actually following the advice, I just like the illusion of productivity. As soon as this ended I went to study and it really helped 🥰
Amazing video, this hit me differently, im doing psychology, maths and economics at a level, and it's my mock week right now. Just smashed by psychology exam, maths tomorrow, thanks for the inspiration. Also im going to university next year (southampton is my firm and UEA is my insurance) to study psychology :)
I literally love ur personality what the heck. U actually convinced me to get tf up and start studying for my a levels 🥲
You know what idk I just keep coming back to this video bc honestly, there are days when the thought of studying makes me sick like I can’t even think about doing my homework or reading the textbook and I’ve only just started my A-Levels. Like I know the last few years I barely have had an education but it’s like the whole world won’t even acknowledge it. It’s actually exhausting sometimes like to sit down and just work. But I’m really going to try. We have a week of break before term 2 starts and I’m actually going to try. I want these 2 years to actually mean something.
