Chat 10: Goodbye.

-
Hello my beautiful friends!

I have a quick announcement to make... I am going to stop blogging and post YouTube videos instead. My blog is only small, but this is an emotional decision because I have put so much love into my blog and I have been contacted by so many amazing people on this journey. Last week, I create my first YouTube video and enjoyed this form of creativity more than writing blog posts. I will still write weekly blog posts on my Grow Your Grades blog, so do watch and interact with that, and I will continue my Studygram, but my main outlet will be YouTube. Thank you so much to everyone who has supported my blog so far (it has been a fantastic journey) and I hope to continue my journey with you on YouTube and reach even more people. Do contact me to tell me what videos you would like to see because I do respect all of my followers and I want to make good content for you. You can subscribe to my channel here.

I am sending lots of love and hugs.

Academia 33: University of Birmingham Offer-Holder Day

-

Hello my beautiful friends! Once you have received an offer from a university, you may be invited to an offer-holder day. This is similar to an open day, but is accessible to offer-holders only. I attended an offer-holder day at the University of Birmingham and have decided to give a review about it. What did I do? Was it a worthwhile event? Did it change my perspective on the university? I hope to answer these questions and more in order to advise you about offer-holder days. I attended this offer-holder day with my mum. To begin the day, we were provided with refreshments (the university was very hospitable, as you will find out later in this post) and able to talk to students & staff about the university. Following this, I was split up with my mum because the parents had a separate itinerary. I attended three talks, which lasted a total of 40 minutes altogether. The talks covered the course, teaching, student life (this talk was presented by current students) and ind...

Academia 32: My UCAS Experience

-
Hello my beautiful friends! I have decided to write a diary-style blog post about my UCAS experience. When I was starting Year 12, I remember feeling daunted by the UCAS process and unsure about what to expect. Eve Bennett, a revision Youtuber, uploaded a diary-style video about her UCAS experience, which was very helpful. Similarly, I hope to help some of you through this blog post about my own experience. 02/07/18 Today I started my UCAS application (I had a UCAS day at sixth form)! I filled in all of the relevant forms and completed the first draft of my personal statement. It was not as daunting as I thought it would be and the form itself did not take long to fill out... I'd advise that you do a few supercurricular activities to ensure you have subject-relevant things to write about on your personal statement (this makes the process so much easier). 26/09/18 There is a slight gap between my last entry and this one. During this time, I have redrafted my personal state...

Academia 24: Staying Productive in Sixth Form

-
Hello my beautiful friends! This blog post was requested from my Instagram story and I thought it'd be useful for those starting Year 12. Recently, I participated in a collab with other Year 13 Studygrammers called #howtoalevel in which we shared our tips for new Year 12s, so I thought it'd be fitting to repeat that Instagram post in blog post form. Here are my top 10 tips for those starting Year 12... 1. Relax during the summer between Y11 & Y12. Some Sixth Forms/colleges set bridging work, so do complete this, but do not do any additional work to avoid burning out in Y12. 2. Make your notes as you go along. After every lesson, write up your class notes onto flash cards/mind maps/whatever resource you use to revise. 3. Use a variety of sources to make your notes. As well as using your class notes, use your textbook/revision guide and/or reliable websites to ensure your notes are sufficient and cover everything. (Feel free to ask me for Physics and Economics we...
