- asdfghjkll here it is!! all the tears, all the stress, all the work. we made it 🥺
As I say, because it's an aggregate, I wasn't too worried as I'd seen over time that I wouldn't fail, but I'm still super happy with how I did! Something I'd like to make a video on is how I changed my relationship to grades in first year. Sure, it's nice to know I understand the content. But I don't feel like my sense of self worth is attached to them in the same way it was at school.
Huge thank you to everyone who supported me throughout first year!! I appreciate it 🌟

Can't agree more!
I'm a student midwife so I feel you on constantly getting assessed and doing work all the time with little breathing room. But sometimes it's honestly so similar to the real world, nothing will phase you after this Jade you strong 💗
Jade! Congratulations ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Eve!! Thank you so much 💛 gal, you've got this term!! x
UnJaded Jade I’ve just been set a load of extra work so not thriving but we shall get there x
Love seeing how you don’t tie in grades with your self worth ❤️ makes me feel better for when I get my GCSEs in August. Thanks for being a source of happiness in a crazy time xx
Took me a longgg time and I'm still growing into it, but it's a mindset I want to foster 🦋 Hey, you've got this! xx
I’m so proud of you! Congratulations! I’ve been watching you for so long and I love how confident and self assured you’ve become like this is such a healthy mindset about grades wow. Thank you
I can't believe she's done with first year of uni I've been watching her videos for so longgg
She actually inspired me to start my own RUclips channel and I just reached 100 subscribers 😊😊💕
Can’t believe it you’ve finished 1st year !
Hope that you will be able to go to Korea next semester and enjoy the culture 🌸
Good luck 🦋☀️📚
I mean I haven’t watched the video fully yet but whatever the result, be proud of yourself! And I love watching your Dutch updates on instagram🤩
Yesss Jade!! So proud of youuu! You've honestly changed my life for the better. Now I am more positive and greatful instead of constantly worrying. Thank youuu!! 🥺💓✨🦋
I have NEVER been this early, so I can’t say anything about the video but omg I just love your videos and attitude and personality so much and your vibe really makes my day sometimes!!!🙌🏻💕✨
You have no idea how much this means. Thank you so much! 🥺💛
UnJaded Jade 💛💛✨
The first time I was this early Jade was still inn her gap year.
I am just going to pretend that my gcse grades are assessed like this then celebrate all my 3's 4's and 5's
Mood lmaoooo
😂
This ~kinda~ vibes like the UK grading system to me -
1/5 - 20%, you really didn't get it
2/5 - 40% (passing grade in UK) - you understood the fundamental concepts, but may not be great at applying them and don't have a very in depth knowledge
3/5 - 60% well done! You got a 2:1, you're doing well
4/5 - 80%, that's well into a first! You've clearly very well understood the course and are doing really well
5/5 - 100% perfect score, very very very difficult to achieve (and also requires publishable level work at a lot of unis)
This is SUCH a useful way to think of it, thanks for sharing :)
Honestly, it really sounds like Polish school grading system 😂
We get maked on the scale of 1-6 with a +/- system where + is a half grade up and - is either 0.25 of 0.5 grade down (depending on the school etc. but you can't get a 1- or a 6+, sometimes 1-5.5 depending on the school again, 6 is very rare anyway and given exceptionally) with 1 being failing grade, 2 technically passing but not really. 3 is ok, as in you have a basic understanding of the concept. You get a 4 when you do well, 5 is very well and 6 is exceptional work.
Similar system is implemented in university, but the scale is 2-5 (with 5.5 being very rare and not present in all universities), where 3 is a passing grade.
Yeah kind of does to me too. My lecturers always said they’d never give more than 80% because it would have to be publishable. But then I guess all unis grade differently
A 3 doesn't sound all that good tbh...
Actually at a lot of UK universities, professors specify that you won't get above 80% unless your work is publishable and first years will never get above 80% period. 100% is literally impossible for the vast majority of subjects lol
I AM SO PROUD OF YOU JADE!!! I am waiting for my GCSE results and aaahhh the anticipation! Thank you for being so kind and inspirational
여기서 한국인 보니 반갑네요
@@user-zv4vn2xm9c 안녕
So proud of you Jade! We could all see how much work and effort you put into this year without forgetting to also spend time with the people you love! And now you've got amazing grades to look back at and a great foundation for next year!
Folk's reaction in the end was my initial reaction XD well done Jade we're so proud of youu
congrats, jade!! we're all really damn proud of you and hope you know that
Congrats❤️❤️❤️🥳🥳🥳. Very deserved! It’s a shame what exams and stuff do to people, the insane amounts of stress people get is not healthy.
I'm so so so proud of you! You've inspired me for years and this is incredible! You're attitude to grades has made me think I'm going to change my attitude as well
Congratulations Jade!! I think you've proved to yourself that you're able to do anything you want to do, even if it's not your niche or you were going through something. You're an amazing human bean ;) ✨✨✨
God, I wish my uni didn't have exams and just constant essays/projects
It's a lot easier to achieve higher grades that way because you can mess up once or twice and still have plenty or opportunities for a good grade - but if you mess up your exam, you're screwed
plus, essays/projects are more than just learning stuff by heart - you actually need to think, which I love
I was just about to say that. Getting assignments done is not hard. But assignments (that you have to pass but don't get any credit for) And midterms and finals is just way harder.
Most USA universities use both methods! My breakdown for each class is roughly 20% of my grade from the final exam, 15% is the midterm and 65% (or the rest of my grade) is based off of tons of assignments which includes about 3-5 tests (not including the final or midterm)! The percentages change slightly depending on the class because they can decide their own percentage breakdowns but the amount of work for each class changes depending on how rigorous the class is! So my engineering courses require more work and time devoted to it (about 10-25 hrs per week per class & we take around 4 or 5 at one time)than lower level classes and therefore are weighted more in my total GPA! I would say it's more difficult than having just one or the other because while we study for our finals/midterms, we're also putting in the same amount of time towards our normal assignments and tests. We're often learning new material while we study for tests :/ Hope this makes sense :)
@@MargieLeigh3 That makes more sense! I also study engineering and in my country your grade is about 90% final, 10% midterm and then we have assignments. (We have assignments so they could let us take the final.)
Exams are definitely HARDER.
so you dont have assignments/essays as well as exams?
Yesss Jade❤❤❤ U are a QUEEN and you deserve the world !!! I honestly don't know how I would be powering through online school if it wasn't for your videos.🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 OMG whoops I think you dropped your 👑👑👑👑👑👑CROOOWN xxx CONGRATS XX
I've been watching you since i was in year 10 and now i am entering my final year of sixth form .Your growth has honestly been so amazing to watch from your lowest points to your high points man .Like when you succeed it makes me feel full inside .
Currently unsure about the course i want to study in university and the industry i want to enter an it is overwhelming my brain because its stressing me out .Your journey has given me faith to trust in the process and hopefully i carry your ambition with me into the future x
Jade you are SO inspirational!! I always thought I wasn’t good enough to pursue the subjects I want to but you’ve motivated me to work hard and realise that I can do it!! Not only that but your mindfulness has absolutely changed the way I view everything, and you’ve made me realise that my self worth isn’t tied to my grades at all. I’m so proud of you, nobody deserves this more than you!!
Well done, I'm so proud of you as are many others. Just seeing you thrive in an uni abroad is honestly so amazing, especially with culture shock and everything! :)
Having to go through hard courses and enjoying them at the same time definately needs respect♥♥
Jade, we're sooo proud of you💖💖💖
I binge watched all your gap year and uni vlogs during quarantine and it's INCREDIBLE to see how much you have grown over time and how well you are doing. I love how positive you always are and how you try to find the positive in every day and how you are just grateful for the little things, it has genuinely made me try to be more grateful and happier as well and I love it so much. Thank you for all the videos and congrats on passing your first year of university! You are a legend!
I am so proud of you , jade . You totally deserved it .
Love from india
Your energy is so warm, you are truly an inspiration to me to be more positive, to try hard and not be too hard on myself if my grades are not "perfect"! ILY
Congratulations Jade! This video warmed my heart and just made me smile seeing her so happy with her progress this year and her final grades! Shows her amazing personal growth! Thank you for inspiring us Jade! xx ☀️
Awww I am so proud of you - you always work hard and inspire me to do the same, especially at this time. I am in Year 12 and it is a very unsure moment at the moment with the end of year exams coming up and predicted grades for uni, and you are giving me the motivation to do my best! :)
Omg ikr!
Georgia Hanna struggling year 12s unite!!
So proud of you! Ur videos are so motivational and help me study much better! Love you💝
As an American who just graduated from uni (I did a semester abroad in the UK in 2018 too) it's so funny to see your reaction to the GPA/aggregate system. Like it's what I'm used to my entire life, and then when I went to school in the UK I wasn't used to how light the work load felt lol.
which uni in the uk did you go to? i go to uni in london and wish my workload was light lol, barely have time to sleep ;.;
@@maneskinnnnn7190 i went to sussex while i was there. i wouldnt say it was 100% a pushover, we still had work, but it was spread out differently than in american uni's. i was used to doing work the entire class but then they were like "hey you only have a midterm and a final" it was weird haha
@@aabatteryful It really depends on your course but I feel like the UK in general is more exam based. Of course, for English and such students will usually have a few essays per week but I did physics and all my higher level courses were just one exam at the end of the year (lower level we had problem sheets every week and midterms as well). This is great to lower the stress during term but the pressure of doing one exam to determine your whole grade is intense. Term was mostly chill but then I'd be the most stressed I'd ever been on the lead up to exam season. I also think that a lot of US students have more styles they have to master because they're forced to take classes outside of their major. So somebody into the sciences will also have to learn how to write good essays which takes a lot of time. Over here you just focus on one subject.
SO PROUD OF YOU!! You are SMASHING it!! sending love and hugs xo
🥺 MANI oh you! Thank you so much. Sending socially distanced hugs right back xx
so proud of you !!
We have the same grading system with numbers, but with slightly different meaning;
5 excellent (A)
4 very good (A)
3 good (B)
2 bad, just barely passed it (C)
1 very bed aka fail (F)
SO PROUD ahhh congrats!! Jade has been such an inspiration to me for such a long time :) She has taught me not just to be motivated to work, but to love work and to love learning and I am so grateful for that.
I feel you Jade 🥺 In High School in Sweden we don’t have finals either, we have tests and assignments and stuff and we have these requirements that we have to fulfill in different aspects to get the grade we want, and you have to constantly get A’s on all your stuff to get an A on the course, for example! So I know the drill, but well done on your first year at Minerva! ✨
I am new to your channel and have been binge watching your video's, you have such a calm energy and presence. I wish you all the bestt, keep thriving Jade ✨
In the middle of a 24 hour online exam and have been waiting for this to hopefully motivate me to finish it!!
Jenny Newton 24 hour exam?!?!?!?!!!
Good luck with it!
Oh my gosh YOU'VE GOT THIS!! few more hours. go go go go we believe in you!!
@@nicksturnlvr it's most likely a 24-hour period to complete an exam on Blackboard or something similar, usually takes 60-90 minutes to complete.
Lewis Bulled that makes a lot more sense😅 I don’t think I was even thinking when I posted that
so excited!
I still have no idea how your grading system works, but you seem happy so GREAT JOB, WE'RE ALL SO PROUD! 💕💕💕
I couldn't watch this yesterday and I completely forgot to watch it today, but I had a really bad mental breakdown bc of all the stress due to exams and I was just scrolling through yt and re-found this video! I'm so proud of you jade! You totally deserve these grades and more! You have NO idea how much of an inspiration you are to me! You're videos have always helped me get back up even when I'm at my lowest of lows!! Ahhh you're the big sister ALL of us need❤️🌟
oh jade !! you did everyone so so proud, well done !! (:

JADE IS MY BIGGEST INSPIRATION!
congrats jade!!! you've gone on such a journey since your a-levels and you are still THRIVING!!
I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU JADE!!! I've been following your journey for a long time, and I just wanted to let you know how proud I am of you! I remember how gutted you were, like we all were, when you didn't get into Oxford; although at that time it seemed like such a low point, you've gone and smashed it at a university where you're flourishing! In the last year, I've seen you happier than you've ever been and it's so great to see your hard work has paid off! Sending you all my love
so happy and proud to that youve come so far!! you deserve all the success you have now, youre such a kind and positive soul! Cheers Jade, we all love you so much. 💕💗
Yaaaay! Well done! So proud of you
YAY! Well done Jade!! We're SO proud of you, and you should be too! Congrats on making it through first year and passing to the next with flying colours - I know you worked super hard, and you 100% deserve a relaxing summer break. Many hugs, I hope you and your family are all safe and healthy!
I have been watching your videos for days and I really liked your channel and I'm really happy to see you succeed on your courses so be happy and always motivated! See you on the next video! 🥳
Girl you did it! Jade, I am so happy for you! All this hard work is paying off and you are doing so much more than just studying. You still have time for people around you, social media, exploring the city and all the other exciting things. I love your energy and passion towards life. Truly inspiring. Enjoy your summer! ❤️
I remember in one of your earlier videos you mentioned how challenging Minerva is and how you kept yourself going thanks to the people there. I'm so, so happy to see how that's paid off and that you're approaching this in such an inspirational way that we can all learn from! I'm so proud of how hard you've worked and how you've lived this year, Jade!!! :D
she is smashing it!🙌🏻 what a woman you are Jade!! such an inspiration!!xxxx
I'm more surprised as to how they mark your stuff so quickly. They're taking literal months to mark my essays 😔
fr! Minerva is so cool!
I am so proud of you Jade. Keep going 💛🌻 and no matter how may obstacles you face, just remember we're all here for you, just like you and your videos are always here for us. Love you!💛🐈
aww well done jade, you deserve it!! ✨
thank you so much taja!!
well done jade!!! You are such an INSPIRATION. I think we all know how hard you've tried and we're all so so proud of you. Go Jade!!!!
We are all sooo happy for you Jade!! CONGRATS!! 🎉🎉
YAY GO JADE!! Uni is TOUGH, especially halfway around the world and in the midst of a pandemic. I’m so proud of you for sticking with it and doing so well!! ❤️
I'm so proud of you, you are glowing. You look so healthy and well, physically and mentally. It's such a beautiful thing to have watched you grow into this intelligent and beautiful woman. I love seeing you happy and proud, I really aspire to be like you one day! xx
I love this grading system, makes complete sense that the highest possible grade isn’t really achievable, because you’re never going to get complacent with education, always trying to improve
YESSS! Definitely do a video on how you change your relationship with grades!!! Schools nowadays are so results-oriented (at least in mind). 😥 It would definitely help so many struggling students out there! 🌻 Please make onee 🙏🙏
CONGRAULATIONS JADE! THATS AMAZING!!
Hard work pays off! Congrats jade, so proud and inspired of you for coming out of it with flying colours!
Congrats Jade! U deserve every success. We have been on very similar paths and u have shown me that it’s possible to find the place that suits u, even once being rejected from Oxford. Also, this is my first ever comment on one of your videos, so I need to say thank you for the past few years. U helped me get 4A* as well as gave me some good ideas for my gap year. Can’t wait to see what the next year brings us. Thanks again!
