    • @pumpinthecat5629
      @pumpinthecat5629 7 лет назад +6

      Samira Dari yeah because what happens is as your consuming a lot of water it's hydrating the brain, also I would recommend going for a run; because it builds and repairs your neurons that make your mind work faster,and helps to precess information a lot more significantly.

The expectations. I feel you. I've struggled with this a lot of my life but am coming to realise that nothing matters other than your goals and your work ethic. Just do your utter best my friend; it's all worth it in the end!! I'm currently making more revision videos so stay tuned! Lots of love x x x

I only have 4months to decide what to do at uni and the stress is pretty real! Especially with my grades, I feel the expectations of Oxford, Cambridge, medicine, law etc x x x

  • @iloveharryjames
    @iloveharryjames 5 лет назад +21

    I got A*s in all of my subjects as well and these are my tips:
    1- Stay focused/know why you’re in school and what you want afterwards/ think about how hard your parents might have worked for you to be in school / motivate yourself but also treat yourself when required
    2- Try to study almost everyday if you can and you dont have to do it hours on end, it could be just an hour or 2 of committed hard-work
    3- Organize your time and THROW YOUR PHONE AWAY. It is the biggest distraction. I had to delete Twitter and Facebook because of how time consuming they were and honestly it was the best decision i have ever made.
    4- Stay well away from drama at school. You don’t need any other things to occupy your mind. Make sure you have genuinely good friends. You don’t need to hang out with the smart bunch, you need the happy/funny bunch.
    5- don’t you dare let anyone discourage you. Stay motivated and do what you want to do despite what any teacher/student tells you. Prove them wrong.
    6- and this is probably my biggest advice: PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE A LOT OF PAST EXAMS THIS IS THE MILLION DOLLAR SECRET AND IT WILL HELP YOU SOOOOO MUCH! I did my IGCSE’s in 2011 and i did so many past papers i ended up going back to 1999, and thats two exams per year (Nov/Jun) .. for each of my subjects. Honestly this is the BEST advice i could give anyone and continue to give everyone i know irl.
    Good luck, and remember, your hard work will always pay-off ♥️
    P.S: i truly believe that gcse’s/igcse’s are important, but as a person who has graduated both school and uni and is currently working, i gotta say,
    that they will not entirely shape your life. Yes they are important but if you dont end up doing so well in them you can still be fine, in fact you could be more than fine! I know a few people who weren’t that successful during school but who later did incredible things because thats just how their personality works! :D

Also don't let one bad exam affect your entire mood, after the exam, let all your despair and angst out there and then because if you let it bubble and build up towards the last exams you'll be so drained of passion, my last exams were my hardest exams and they were so much harder because I couldn't drive up any passion or energy to revise, just get over it in the moment before it ruins everything

    Oh my god I needed this so badly right now.
    I am super anxious about my upcoming mocks. I had my first panic attack ever last friday in chemistry, one of my finals, because my mind went just blank over the mock questions and even though I normally cope with stress etc quite well I just freaked out. Over the last weeks I really have been unbearable and I am so sorry about that but I can't help it. I feel like I might fall into some sort of depressive state and I could not find the motivation to so anything, whatsoever. But right now your videos give the motivation to belief that tomorrow I might actually get stuff done. You're an inspiration!
    Even though you will probaby never read this: thank you, Jade. Honestly, you give me hope.
    Lots of love from Germany

    - Teach yourself what you don’t know
    - Start revision early
    - Do practice questions and exams

    I know results day was ages ago but I came across this video again so I just wanted to say a quick thank you! You seriously helped me to achieve 8 A*s and three grade 9s in my GCSEs, both in terms of learning the content and helping me to stay relaxed and well rested. You also gave me the courage to get my English remarked as I actually got an 8 at first but it went up 22 marks to a 9! Thank you Jade, you are amazing x

    first tip is so right. im returning to school at age 23 because im finally in the right headspace to want to learn, in a way that i literally cannot recall from my childhood. i failed school because i didnt really see myself living past 18 :/ school isnt everything kiddos, and you can always revisit when youre older and more confident, but its as jade says: doing well is all about your mindset. take care everyone

    All a*s doesn't necessarily mean all 9's, if you were doing them in the new system you might've got a mixture of 8's and 9s because an 8 is an a* and 9 an A**

    • @UnJadedJade
      @UnJadedJade  7 лет назад +81

      Yeah I apologise I think you're right!! I did get full UMS in quite a few subjects (so I guess that's a 9??) but the new system is kinda confusing! Aaaah good luck x x

    • @uzhmaa
      @uzhmaa 6 лет назад +7

      Yeah that is true if comparing the 2 grading systems. But initially the point is Aiming for the highest grade. So for you it would be 9 for us it was A*. Both grades hold the same weight :) For example, 100% would give you a 9 well 100% would give us a A*.

    • @eshratabassum7273
      @eshratabassum7273 6 лет назад +9

      There's nothing called A** ... 9 Is just the higher part of the a* and 8 is the lower A* so if to het an A* u had to get more than a 55 out of 60 on a paper and if u get 59 out of 60 then ur a 9 but if ur on 56 ... It's a 8 .

      Eshra Tabassum actually that’s not true as teachers originally said that but now they are saying that post mocks, when they come up with grade boundaries as they haven’t been released that 9s are actually an A** so it is partly a higher A but that is true for any grade that isn’t a U

    Its baffling to me how you have your revision so organised! We're in the same year, I got good GCSEs and was really happy with my revision strategies. However, A Levels have really taken it out of me- I've gone from getting solid As and A*s at GCSE to being lucky to get half marks in a history essay at A Level. It would be really helpful if you could make a GCSE to A Level transition video or something similar, because it seems you have your life sorted out, unlike me and many others in sixth form!

    i'm so dumb, i try so hard to listen and understand things in school and nothing at all gets into my head, especially subjects like science where you have to learn 3 different things. i try to revise by getting a friend to read notes to me, listening to a video on repeat when revising to when i go to bed, then to the next morning, and i try to read from text books but no matter what type of revision i try, non of the information gets into my head. i've tried afterschool revision and everything but i can't do it, im in year 10 where there's a new gcse and no course work so i'm basically screwed. god knows how i'm gonna end up with my gcses because at this rate i'm getting nothing past a 3.

Maybe you just haven't found the revision technique that works for you, who knows? Hmmm I'm trying to think. Okay so a lot of the method you outlined are quite passive. Someone reading them to you; just LISTENING to notes, READING the textbook. I feel like you need more involvement, like maybe writing notes and writing yourself little test Qs based on your notes to test memory recall? Give it a try. Sending you a whole lot of luck x x x

I'm on holiday in St Lucia right now but I promise that as soon as I'm back I'll make some more detailed revision videos 💘 try to plan what you're going to do each day roughly so it won't all catch up on you in the last few days. For English, as boring as it is, writing essays is probably the very best thing you can be doing, just like for Maths you need to be doing practise Qs and learning formulas. Anyway, I'll go into more detail soon! I wish you luck my friend xxx

      UnJaded Jade hey jade! When you're doing essays, how do you check if you're using proper grammar etc? Did you ask other people to read your essays?

    I'm actually dreading my GCSE's right now!! My teacher made things so much worse the other day by telling us that the first exam is in less than a month. I'm really hoping that this video helps me because I really want to get those grades that I need and I'm willing to do anything at this point. Thanks for the tips Jade! xx

    I just got told my percentage in my Business mock and I didn't do too well so I am kinda scared for the rest of the subjects. You really did motivate me, "The only thing limiting you is yourself". Thank you Jade for the tips and I'm really gonna put them to use. Gained a new subscriber here :)

    Your videos were like my online bible in the months leading up to IGCSE and all the inspiration and tips I gained from you honestly paid off. I got my results back on the 17th: 8A*s and 2As in total! I'm really happy and proud and I owe quite a bit of this success to you, Jade! Thank you for being so helpful and motivational for your younger followers (and maybe older ones too)! I'm so grateful I found your channel! xxx
