Maths Pure - 76% - A

Physics Paper 1 - 48% - C/D

Chemistry Paper 2 - 65% -B

I’ve got my pure maths paper tomorrow and I’m feeling pretty confident so that’s a nice change lol. I did the physics past paper today and (not literally) nearly shit myself and (literally) had a mental breakdown which was fun. Anyway. B in paper 3 which ain’t great but I didn’t read a couple of the questions properly and if I had had the mechanisms memorised it would have definitely been an A. After tomorrow I haven’t got an exam until Wednesday, when I have paper 1 physics and paper 1 chemistry, so this week is going to be fun.

Confidence levels:

Maths pure: 9/10

Maths applied: 5/10

Chemistry paper 1: 7/10

Chemistry paper 2: 8/10

Physics paper 1: 3/10

Physics paper 3: 4/10

Physics Astro: 6/10

Word count: 3440

Actual word count is about 3167 (removing abstract, citations and subtitles). Conclusion should be 500 words, so I have 1333 words left of content. At the moment I just need to finish some section and start to fill in the gaps with analysis. It’s currently 4:17pm and hopefully by the time I go to bed I’ll have written a thousand (?) more words.

Word Count: 3638
