Aldrich Cervania

Aldrich Cervania

My name is Aldrich! I’m a final year engineering student at the University of Sheffield.

The journey was not as happy as it seems. I failed Year 12 and I retook my A-levels. I was never that naturally smart kid, or one of those people who had insane levels of motivation. I was never in Set 1 in Secondary School either but here I am, I’ve created a channel where you can expect videos on uni lifestyle, productivity, and self-improvement!

I’m going to finish Uni this year but, before I go, I want to be transparent with you and share how I overcame my monsters, the tragedies of adulting, and share with you my story so far in my quest to live a happy life. I want to have this minor area of the internet where I can just be my confident and authentic self, and bring value to people who watch my videos!

Hopefully, it’s relatable, you can laugh along with me and it widens your perspective of life!

I upload every Monday, so be sure you’re subscribed to stay on top of my adventures!

    Yo, thank you for giving me a reality check. Maybe I've been so obsessed with getting an iPad because I thought it would fix my awful study habits, but no. If I got an iPad right now, I would not make the most out of it because I would keep procrastinating as usual. What I'll do is improve my study habits, then once I prove I can consistently do that for a long time, then _maybe_ I'll buy an iPad or something similar as a reward.

    Just wanted to say some kind words here. Thank you so much for this video. I will take my A-Levels rly soon! And it makes me a bit nervous. I have done well in year 12, I barely done any prep, cheated on workpacks, but I could easily solve questions, hence I got an A in year 12 mocks. I was lucky. But then, in year 13 my approach deceived me, and it caused me getting a D in January Mock. I feel like an abomination now after such a result and my ethics, even tho I don’t apply it to my other subjects. I need to be working on myself, I know. I know I fucked myself up, but it’s never too late. If I have turned my grade in computer science from E to A, it means I can do the same in maths. Your video motivated me to keep my shit together and get through this, thank you! P.s. Just a note to people reading this, don’t make my mistakes, please. Never cheat on the prep, take your time to learn the topic, but don’t be lazy. And don’t be afraid to ask questions! Further maths students, teachers, friends who have done well in exams, don’t be shy to collaborate!

Quite hard to find online resources though, there's tons for GCSE but barely any for A Level which is unfortunate. Just working through my CGP textbook (revision + practice), doing the practice questions and looking up videos for examples when I get confused. I also happen to have a friend who's done A Level maths before so I ask them stuff occasionally :)

    Hi there. Could you help me to figure out which iPad should I go with? I can buy an iPad air 5 for $370 and 12.9” m1 iPad Pro for $620. (Both are used and I have a macbook air as well.) My main usage will be note taking, reading news, papers, articles, watching youtube videos and mostly for the educational purposes.

    I did fail in my Olevels only in math couldn't give the retake due to corona now i dont want to study anymore it feels pointless i am trying to learn data science or do something else i just dont want to be in any type of competition anymore not worth it after all all of this is just business and politics they purposely will make you fail for their own benefit. A strange thing is that there are no limits given to pass even if you pass in one subjects it actually means pass it is just the university that makes things difficult they create these standards that you need to get this to pass.
