    Got my Pre-Mocks back and I'm delighted with them to say the least. I clocked up 590 somehow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Just a bit disappointed with Maths(B1), lol and I got a D in Irish too :pac:

    Started revising for my mocks today. The exam Im most dreading is gotta be English by a long mile. I sense that timing is going to be my biggest enemy.

    Got about 5 hours of study done on top of homework.

    English: Made some short notes on Imagery and Symbolism in King Lear. And also prepped a possible essay for Bishop.

    Maths: Revised Financial Maths and did 3 exam questions on it.

    French: Listened to 10 mins of French news and did some practice for the oral.

    Applied Maths: I've been ignoring this subject lately. Revised The wedge and pulleys and did 3 exam questions.

    Chemistry: Made notes on Redox reactions and did an exam question.

    Aims:
    Make notes on Soil structure in Ag science.
    Revise over The wedge and do more exam questions.
    Record myself saying oral notes for French.

    As you can see I'm totally ignoring Irish as its my weakest subject and I'm planning to drop down after the mocks.
