#advanced higher

From what I can tell, everyone is really worried for results day tomorrow (7.8.18) and I just want to remind yous all that your grades don't define you. If you don't do as well as you were wanting it's okay. It doesn't make any of what you've achieved already any less, and it doesn't mean you are any less in the future. Remember not to be too hard on yourself and I hope by this time tomorrow yous are all okay, and not too anxious.

I'm tagging the people who liked it reblog my other post asking who's waiting on SQA results. I'll try and tag more people if I find out you're also waiting on results but please tag anyone you know who's waiting on results. It'd be nice to have more of a Scotsblr community. If you're wanting to talk just message me, I'm happy to listen.

GOOD LUCK

Today I’m starting the 100 Days of practise in preparation for my advanced higher music exams and my grade 5 theory and vocal exams.

I’m aiming to spend at least an hour each day to practise at least one of my exam pieces or do theory.

(i felt like i should make a post about this, so here we go)

today (8th August 2017) is exam results day in Scotland 

i know like myself, teenagers across the country were terrified to receive their results this morning 😱

 you may be happy with what you got, or not so happy [i wasn’t so happy, i don’t want to go into it but i failed an exam i really needed] but regardless of what it says on the paper, or in the email, or on the text… and this applies to all those who are sitting/have sat/will sit exams… you are worth more than a grade

a letter on a paper or a screen does not define who you are as a person - so it’s going to be okay, you’re survived, and what’s done is done - you worked to the best of your ability, and that’s all you can do.

So all the way up until like idk summer time last year I have considered myself a science person, like, I actually loved the shit and I was quite good at it ngl

And then the pandemic hit and self studying became a thing and it all went to shit

Anywho, this year I was meant to take Higher Maths as one of my subject however I dropped out after like two days cuz would ya look at that - the step up from National 5 to Higher is a pretty fucking' big one!

Instead of suffering with Maths I decided to take up French again and my French class is a mix of S5 and S6 students and earlier this week I heard two S6's discussing what may or may not be in the AH Maths pseudo exam and stuff like that

So I was sitting there, barbeque sauce on my titties, listening, cuz I had nothing better to do and thinking to myself "How the bloody hell do these people solve that shit? Wtf is a matrix? Isn't that like a part of the mitochondria or something?"

And today I made the mistake of looking at the 2019 Advanced Higher paper and BOY am I scared

Those summations or whatever look like they could summon a fucking demon!

And how tf are so many of these questions only worth one mark?!

Nah but for real, I both respect and fear anyone who takes Advanced Higher Mathematics, willingly or not.
