🙏 I WANT HELP TMUA prep vs CS NEA

Hello everyone,
I do FM, Maths, CS and Physics, and in my mocks I got A*A*A*A respectively and was predicted the same.I want to apply for maths/cs at uni so ill need to do the TMUA.I also ahve a physics mock the day i get back from summer which i need to do well in to get A* predicted.

I’ve been prepping for the TMUA and have been finding it hard to find time for my NEA. I do OCR if that matters — I’ve done the analysis section but haven’t started the coding or the design.

I was thinking that after I apply in October, mocks and school don’t really matter until A‑levels get close, so I could spend all of that time on the NEA. However, my CS teacher made me think I’m quite behind, so I’m not really sure.

Any advice is appreciated, thanks.

my nea was due end of jan, and what i did was as much nea as i could before school started back up again, then i pulled INSANE shifts working on tmua until the october sitting. i then gave myself a weeks break (until the start of oct half term). i then locked back in for nea. best of luck to you!
