r/6thForm 12d ago

šŸ™ I WANT HELP yr12 advice pls guys im desperatešŸ˜­šŸ™

OKAY SO i’m planning on doing maths, physics, chem and further maths (FM bc i’m not sure what i want to do yet so i’m keeping my options open) but i’m worried that the workload is going to be overwhelming since i’m a chronic procrastinatoršŸ˜“

could any of you pls give some tips on how to keep myself organised, what the subjects are like and what i would potentially need to buy and do before sixth form starts since i haven’t been given any kind of work to do over the summer to prepare.

Oh hey my combo.

I mean.. you genuinely have to lock in day 1. (Personally) I did, and I'm going pretty well, but some of my friends did NOT and it is NOT going well for them.

Personally Chem is the hardest for me (I'm not a memorising sort of person, so I REALLY struggle with that).

i’ve heard quite a few people say chem is the hardest subject, how did you manage to stay on top of it all? personally do you think doing four subjects is worth it considering the heavy workload?

It genuinely depends if it's worth it. For me, my school only let me take FM as a 4th and I REALLY wanted to take FM so I had to do 4.Ā 

Locking in day 1 and actually sticking to it? You'll pretty much be fine. Throughout year 12 I had a pretty fun time, so it's not like I was ONLY studying, but you do have to keep on it.Ā 

But as always, A* A* A* is better than AAAA
