    ahaha what a mood. I'm sure you will get to know everyone in your class soon and if you have any group work or field trips then that will definitely help with making friends. And even if not, at the end of the day you are there to learn so at least you will be productive in your lessons. Chin up though it will get better xx

    Megan Mahoney I’m applying to courses where there’s a mixed human and physical geography component where you don’t need to specialise from the first year as I like both human and physical. So I’m applying to Durham, Edinburgh, Bristol and Cambridge. I wouldn’t be disappointed if I don’t get into Cambridge though as it’s extremely rigorous and competitive. With regards to my personal statement, I’ve attended so many lectures and masterclasses so I’ve talked about some of those and what I found interesting about them. I’ve read “An introduction into geopolitics” by Klauss Dodds and I’ve mentioned my favourite chapters. I’m a student member of the Royal Geographical Society, I’m a member of my school Eco club, I adore watching Wendover Productions on you tube who makes a lot of geography and economics/ logistics videos, I volunteer at my local food bank and do a river cleanup each month, I have so much to talk about! I’m currently working on my fourth draft and I’m trying to find the balance between quantity and depth in what I talk about. How about you? Best wishes and good luck!

That book sounds interesting too. Mine is inadequate in comparison to be completely honest ahaha. I did a summer school, talked about a book called ‘prisoners of geography’ by Tim Marshall (great read), Stacey Dooley’s documentary about the fast fashion industry, I did a MOOC about the sustainable development goals, the EPQ, duke of Edinburgh and volunteering I do :) keep me updated on how it’s all going!

    Good luck girl! Try to get a good nights sleep tonight. Honestly it’s easier than year 7 as people in my experience were way more friendly, you get to be more of your own person as you are wearing your own clothes (I presume?) and you meet like minded people as you’re only doing the subjects you want to do. Let me know how you get on, I’ll be thinking of you all 🥰🥰xx

    Megan Mahoney I’ve just got home from the first day. It was only the induction but it went really well. I have a question though, it might sound stupid but anyways. I’ve made loads of new friends but none of them really are like my type of friend if u get what I mean. I feel so much pressure to get into a group really quickly but like how long did it take u to find your group? I’m worried about not getting into any group if I wait to long but then I don’t want to rush Into a crowd I don’t like. 💓

    good luck!! My lessons start then too. History is a hard subject with lots of essays and content but depending on your modules it can be super interesting too. I found the jump from GCSE to A Level was not too intense, for history at least. Maybe see how it goes for the next few weeks and then if you are not enjoying it then ask to switch subjects?

    I guess it is different in every school so don’t take our word as the Bible (ahaha lame re joke there). Yeah I agree, it was very discussion based. I felt like it was a big repetition of gcse concepts and it felt worse this time around because we were not actually working towards a qualification this time. Also, our sixth form is not really that catholic whereas the main school is so it’s a bit awks when all the catholic teachers have their opinions (which are completely valid and it is a catholic school at the end of the day so have to respect and appreciate that!!) in lesson sometimes as the vast majority of students appear to have a different view. Then again it does make for a good discussion but then again, most people switch off during the lesson because they don’t want to be there so it is a bit ineffective. At least it is slightly relaxing and a good distraction from work xx

    aw good luck!! I'm sure you'll make new friends as there will be people in the same boat as you, everyone is nervous on that first day even if they don't show it. And you can still remain friends with your current friends. Even if they're doing different courses, that means you'll have loads more to talk about as your experience will be different so try not to worry and enjoy the rest of your summer. Good luck for results day!! You've got this xx
