I'm really grateful that there are students out there that tell us these things even though they do not have to at all and can just completely move on with their lives
Life saver thank you, this is exactly the type of video I was looking for. I’m starting a sixth form in September and I’m only aware of like 3 people I know that are going, I’ve decided to do geology, physics, maths and further maths so I’m really trying to prepare my mindset before this new beginning. Thank you for the advice :)
i start sixth form literally tomorrow in a new school and i have been feeling quite nervous about everything, especially experiencing the 'making friends' process again, the part where you talk about friendships calm me down a little bit so thank you for that! keep up with the great content!
Honestly the best piece of unsolicited advice I can give you is this: you know how you’re nervous? Stressing? Thinking everybody is judging you? Guess what: everybody is thinking the same thing. Everybody is the centre of their own world and are way too focused on themselves to worry about what you’re doing. I say this with full certainty, go out there tomorrow at your new school and be open minded, you owe it to yourself. Don’t go in with a negative mindset because that will affect how your day goes. And lastly, good luck, you’ll do great!
@@Izzy-if4ww wow! thank you so so so much!! i'll try my best to have a positive mindset and remind myself about your advice tomorrow! thank you for making my night. (for me haha) :)
@@cyggiwt no problem. I’m also starting a new sixth form tomorrow. I’m nervous too, but being positive about it is helping me and I hope it helps you!!!
This is such a good video I’m going into year 13 this September, and wow 4 a levels thats a lot 😭I’m currently doing an EPQ right now so that’s currently happening !
Ooh goodluck, I will be uploading a Yr13 video soon too like this one. I will also be talking about my experiences of 4 a-levels and an epq in the future 😂 it was ALOT of work. Thank you for your nice words. Goodluck in year 13 👍
thank you for this, I'm starting sixth form in two days at a new school, in a new country (I've moved from Hong Kong to the UK) and I'm really nervous yet excited so I needed to hear this!
i’m starting year 12 in september doing a level 3 extended diploma in music performance so because it’s a coursework assessed subject i’ve always got to be on my a-game! exciting though
I start sixth form on Monday and I'm taking graphics, film studies and history. I'm happy with my choices as I find it very difficult to get motivated, so I knew I wouldn't be able to handle four subjects and chose subjects that I would enjoy/find interesting. it is quite difficult to find advice on these courses at a level though, but I guess I'll find out what they're like in school.. good luck to any other soon to be year 12s watching :) also hope ur gcse results went well!!!
i start on monday too and i’m doing graphic design, tv & film and criminology :] i actually chose interactive media and applied psychology instead of the last two but my sixth form told me very last minute that they don’t teach them anymore lmao bruh, so i was forced to choose tv & film by a teacher and then i chose criminology on my own since it’s always interested me. i find it really hard to get motivated too so i hope these subjects don’t drain me that much. good luck!!
I just started sixth form and I’m taking health & social, medical science, English language, and religious studies. And in my school we have to do Welsh bacc too. Your video definitely helped me! Thankyou!
I’m staring a-levels in September and this video really helped on what to prepare for when I enter, I’m doing maths,physics, BTEC IT, and further maths, this is just the video I needed, Thanks man
My siblings are in dental school and one did chem, bio, psychology whereas the other did chem, bio and maths and the one who did maths really regret it saying it wasnt worth the effort if she could have done psychology and had a easier time- so i want to do medicine so i planned on doing the same subjects as you but them and alot of medics told me its not worth it and you dont need maths so ive decided chem, bio and psychology :) 💕 creds to you for doing 4 alevel its amazing that your handling them so good
Thank you so much ! This has been really helpful and has given me a lot of stuff to think abt before 6th form. You remain one of my role models and good luck in uni!
This was so helpful, I'm so excited for this new adventure in September and this video gave me the necessary information that I needed to be ready for sixth form,. You answered all my questions for me, keep up the great work with your content, it is very very helpful!
I start sixth form tomorrow and I have been having so much anxiety especially since I don’t know what to do as a career. Thank you this video really helped!

This is so helpful! I'm starting year 12 in September, and honestly don't know anything about it. Also I'm going to a new sixth form and don't know anyone I'm literally scared to death.
Thank you! Yeah, starting fresh can be quite intimidating, don't worry, everyone tries to make new friends at the beginning so you won't be alone at all. 👍
@@murtyyy6020 same I picked german and I picked both English idk I just thought it suited better with German I have no idea wht u even learn in English language cant lie .
If I’m looking into doing a course where I need AAA, what do you think I should be aiming to get in my end of y12 exams? Also, could you do videos on how you revised for maths and physics please?
Thanks! You just need to have a decent foundation and hopefully not forget everything at GCSE. A-level content is different so you will learn different things to what you thought were correct at GCSE, I wouldn't worry 👍
@@JadenYee Update: I am now starting year 13 in 2 days time and so far, I am still very much enjoying my subjects, especially computer science; Despite how difficult it still is. My Ucas prediction grade is currently at an AAA. So in conclusion, so far so good😀
Damn Man you really worked hard. All the sciences, maths and epq that must have been a lot of stress. When would be best to look for courses for engineering or computer science and who would be the best people to ask?
Thanks, it was definitely not easy 😂. I would say the best time to look for courses is the next possible time you have free time! You may want to look on uni websites for general offered grades and what they require in general. I would ask your school career supervisor if you have one or just email around companies etc for work experience placements or advice if necessary.
Great video and advice. I've been struggling to decide between my school's sixth form and a college that's a bit further away. Part of me wants to stay at my sixth form cause my friends are there and I don't want to grow distant from people. But part of me wants to go to a new college to meet new people and face a new challenge. I don't want to just be stuck inside my own bubble I guess.
Thank you! That sounds like a tough problem. I would say that even if you stay where you are, you would still meet so many new people like I did whilst keeping your close friends. But even if you go to another college, you could still keep contact with your friends although it would be harder. It depends what you want the most and what you are looking for since sixth form is only 2 years. Do you want to mostly meet new people and face new challenges or do you want to maintain your current circle of people? I would write out a list of pros and cons for each side and then maybe try to discuss it with teachers and other people if you need more opinions. Hope this has helped a bit! Goodluck in your decision, I'm sure both options are great.👍
Don’t know if it’ll help but other people will be in the same position I decided to go to a 6th form where I only know one person, opposed to many at the other because I want new people and the ability to change my ways from year 11 and people not to think it’s just a phase of trying really hard. :))
Yes of course, there are many examples of that happening and some have youtube channels! Training will probably help boost your grades since you have a more balanced lifestyle and you gain so much discipline and advantages which can be used to study! 👍 Goodluck!
Sure thing, I already have a video on the UCAT which explains most of it but I only have experience in the UCAT which I started revising properly about a month before my exam. People also spend roughly that much time revising for the BMAT too. I'll make more in depth videos in the future!
Great to hear! Thank you for the nice words! My hardest part of sixth form was definitely keeping up with the workload and added pressure of year 13. Since we were in lockdown most of the time we had to learn most of the new content ourselves which was a lot tougher. I found that online lessons were not enough to fully understand the content so had regular sessions with friends online to try and learn/revise together. This also helped with motivation and meant that we could deal with this pressure together! This might be completely different to what you will experience so don't worry! 😃
@@JadenYee Thank you so much I'll definitely take your experience into account and create a study group as well. I start sixth form at a new school this September so this video was so helpful. 😁
Im not sure if you'll see this but yeah.. through gcse my knowledge and involvement wasn't the best, however somehow i got into Sixth-form. As someone who honestly doesn't know how to revise i just wanted to ask you if you think my plan is ok ;D is taking notes throughout lesson and recalling then developing them after the right thing to do? If so when do i go over the information to make sure its retained? :) sorry to ask a fat question :(
Hi! I try to look at most comments! Yes, so I would look up active recall and spaced repetition in studying but I might make a video like this! Taking notes for most people doesn't retain information, you need to first understand the content and then try and learn/memorise it. Testing yourself is a great way to do this, using things like past papers, flashcards and other methods of recall are useful. To make sure it is retained, you need to do this over a long period of time, it will be different for each person but this is an example: go over content/test yourself 1 day after you learn it, 3 days after, 1 week after, 3 weeks after etc. Hope this has helped a bit although you may find other methods of revision more useful!
Thank you for this video! I’m starting at a completely new sixth-form tomorrow, and I’m not the best at talking to people, so I am a little nervous. Would you say sixth-form brought you out a little more, in regards to others your age?
I’m going to a new sixth form. I’m not particularly confident I’ve never had a issue making friends. I’m just worried about like what if the teacher isn’t good and makes me hate the subject. Because your subject depends on your teacher he/she will either make you love it or hate it
That's no problem at all, loads of people will be nervous and have many worries themselves. I would definitely say most people mature in sixthform in terms of increases in confidence and speaking to others. Go in the first few weeks with an open mind and you'll do great 👍
This doesn’t really matter but I was just wondering, do the teachers make you sit in a dedicated seating plan or do they just allow you to sit wherever?
Currently studying maths, physics and economics at A-level. How far into year 12 should I be doing past papers? Looking to achieve a-a* in each. Thanks in advance!
Really depends on what you want to do but I would recommend doing them for revision for upcoming tests/exams. But usually, you want to be doing practice qus any time you learn something new!
Great video! I was wondering whether or not you can give me any advice regarding revision techniques as I am still unsure as to what works best for me 🙁 keep up the great content!!
Yes I will make a video on this in the near future but maybe mind maps, blurting all your knowledge on paper and seeing what you missed, flashcards, trying to teach hard concepts to friends/family who no nothing about it. I will make videos about the importance of using active recall (testing yourself) and spaced repetition (gradually going back over content so you don't forget it completely)
Try to create a good revision time table which isn't really based on the amount time studying. I will make a video on this so be sure to stay awake! It will be about retrospective revision timetables and how you can use them effectively to revise.
Will be doing a sixth form essentials video very soon! In summary, I would get 1 big folder for each subject and have a day folder like unjaded jade suggests to organise all your lessons you have each day. Go watch her video for more info about it, I used that and it was very useful!
this is a very helpful video. i just finished yr 11 and going into yr 12. should i start revising my a level maths course in the holidays as i am worried i may fall behind.
Year 11 is very different to Year 12 but I would definitely recommend staying up to date with the basics and being solid on things you know you will be using in A-levels. Otherwise please enjoy your holiday!
I'm kinda scared of going into sixth form now bc I've decided to resit 6 of my GCSES and idk how I'm gonna cope, with the only hope that it'll be over by December 😃🚣
no offence but why did you choose to resit 6 GCSEs? how will you cope with the workload if you are doing at least 3 A-Levels & then studying for 6 other subjects
@@wolfzmusic9706 I'm not really happy with my grades :/ and because I've been given to option to resit them, I would rather take the chance and get better results so I'll have more uni options open for me then regret not even trying :)). About coping with the workload, I'm sure I'll manage bc I'm just revising over them for the next three months and not really learning anything new. I've not really got any commitments either, other than volunteering and I'll have enough hours to memorise stuff. 😌 Obviously this is only going to last for 3-ish months- that's the only fact that's calming me rn 😭😭 (does it help that 3 of the GCSEs are ones I'm taking for A-Level too?)
@@palomatissues832 well i have some grades that i’m not happy with either but i resit none of mine cuz my grade could easily be lowered. i’m not taking any chances
Oh gosh that’s so bad with the amount of exams in year 12. Thank you so so much for the information cuz they don’t tell me that in school and I didn’t know😭 also because of the workload in year12 do you think revising over the summer before the yr 12 will help?
Hi, I am sort of in a very similar situation to yours. I just sat my gcses and am predicted all 9s in physics, chem, maths and bio. I’m sooo torn between an astrophysics route or medicine and thus was thinking of picking all 4 of them as a levels with no epq. Any suggestions on what i can do to lessen the stress or should i consider dropping one ? Thanks for the video , it was very informative.
could you please do a video on careers and uni courses that you can use with maths and physics? im starting my a-levels and I literally have no idea what I need to pick
Yes this is a possible video idea! In the meantime, you can do your own research on uni websites and clicking the courses and seeing entry requirements for them
This is fate because I never thought anyone would do a video with the same subjects, but I'm kind of scared tho cos I'm doing these at Brampton manor where if you don't get high enough you get kicked out plus everyone there is a genius. (I wanna try to apply to do med and apply for Oxbridge but I'm not good enough)
Most universities that do dentistry don't require maths of physics I found. They usually want chemistry and atleast 1 other science as a general rule so you don't be forced into doing something you don't want to!
I do better studying less subjects, so I’m just going to practice practice practice with questions based on the topics I’m learning from the very start. I ain’t interested in friends, to be honest, although I realise I’ll get some actual friends who want to do well. I work well with flash cards, so for mathematics and history, I’ll be doing flashcards for that. I’m a chess player, so I always analyse what I do wrong and work on that to improve. That’s why I went from grade 5 to 8 in a few months in mathematics. Can’t I just do 2 hours of revision a day right?
I found chemistry the hardest but maths was definitely 2nd hardest. Physics was probably easiest but still hard so don't assume it is easy! I will be making a video about my a level results and my thoughts on all these subjects so stay tuned!
Thank you for your kind words! I don't have much experience in terms of your situation but I would assume that the basics would apply except you will just have to find more resources on your own which is not a huge issue. There are great resources like physics and maths tutor, youtube etc which will be able to help if you have any problems!
Hey, I've just started at sixth form and am taking biology, chemistry, core maths and physics (similar to what you did), but I'm not sure about continuing chemistry and might change it to Maths. Any advice?
Hi, if you already know which course you want to do then I would look at the university requirements for the subjects required and that may help you to decide. Otherwise I think everyone will experience different subjects differently but I would ask yourself why you are not sure about continuing chemistry and want to start maths. You could always talk to your teachers for their opinions but these are early days for sixth form so another alternative is that you wait a little while longer to see if anything changes.

Hope this has helped a bit! Goodluck in your decision, I'm sure both options are great.👍
Don’t know if it’ll help but other people will be in the same position I decided to go to a 6th form where I only know one person, opposed to many at the other because I want new people and the ability to change my ways from year 11 and people not to think it’s just a phase of trying really hard. :))
fancy seeing ya here, ashraf😀😀
@@melisa6609 uhmmmm😶
You need good teachers, my nearby college is rated "outstanding" by ofsted yet the teachers are bad
Bro this advice was golden thanks so much
No problem, goodluck!
Absolute life saver man, thanks so much?
Great to hear! Thank you for your kind words 😃
This was such a useful video for me! To the point, concise and informative. Thanks Jaden!
Thank you! Good to hear!
This was so helpful! Thank you!!
You're so welcome!
start on monday, thanks for the video.
No problem!
Thank you for this amazing video!! Do you think it’s possible to professionally train as an athlete and get good grades?
Yes of course, there are many examples of that happening and some have youtube channels! Training will probably help boost your grades since you have a more balanced lifestyle and you gain so much discipline and advantages which can be used to study! 👍
Goodluck!
@@JadenYee Thank you!!
When should you start revising for the entrance exams and also could you do a video on how you prepared/ revised for them. Thank you 😊
Sure thing, I already have a video on the UCAT which explains most of it but I only have experience in the UCAT which I started revising properly about a month before my exam. People also spend roughly that much time revising for the BMAT too. I'll make more in depth videos in the future!
People starting year 12 the best advice i can give is read ahead find your resources early
Maths further maths chemistry and biology. 4 frees. Tomorrow. I’m not ok.
Goodluck 😂
@@JadenYee thanks man 😂
thank you so much!! i really wanna go into dentistry too do you have any tips on how to boost my dental application or how to prepare?? 😋😋
this was very helpful, i start this sept and doing maths, further maths and physics:) thank you for the advice and kind words:)
Thank you so much! Wow, those are tough subjects, I'm sure you'll do great! Goodluck 👍
thank u for this video :) i decided to do art, media studies and english literature
No problem, best of luck next year!
really great video, one of the best on this topic thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much - very useful!
Great to hear!
Thanks for the tips 👍
No problem 👍
Thank you so much 😁 this was very helpful. What would you say was the hardest part of sixth form, and how did you overcome it?
Great to hear! Thank you for the nice words! My hardest part of sixth form was definitely keeping up with the workload and added pressure of year 13.
Since we were in lockdown most of the time we had to learn most of the new content ourselves which was a lot tougher. I found that online lessons were not enough to fully understand the content so had regular sessions with friends online to try and learn/revise together. This also helped with motivation and meant that we could deal with this pressure together!
This might be completely different to what you will experience so don't worry! 😃
@@JadenYee Thank you so much I'll definitely take your experience into account and create a study group as well. I start sixth form at a new school this September so this video was so helpful. 😁
this was very helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful, thank you for the nice comment!
Needed this 🙏🏾
Im not sure if you'll see this but yeah.. through gcse my knowledge and involvement wasn't the best, however somehow i got into Sixth-form. As someone who honestly doesn't know how to revise i just wanted to ask you if you think my plan is ok ;D is taking notes throughout lesson and recalling then developing them after the right thing to do? If so when do i go over the information to make sure its retained? :) sorry to ask a fat question :(
Hi! I try to look at most comments! Yes, so I would look up active recall and spaced repetition in studying but I might make a video like this! Taking notes for most people doesn't retain information, you need to first understand the content and then try and learn/memorise it.
Testing yourself is a great way to do this, using things like past papers, flashcards and other methods of recall are useful.
To make sure it is retained, you need to do this over a long period of time, it will be different for each person but this is an example: go over content/test yourself 1 day after you learn it, 3 days after, 1 week after, 3 weeks after etc.
Hope this has helped a bit although you may find other methods of revision more useful!
amazing really helpful video God bless u
Glad you found it useful!
Thank you for this video! I’m starting at a completely new sixth-form tomorrow, and I’m not the best at talking to people, so I am a little nervous. Would you say sixth-form brought you out a little more, in regards to others your age?
I’m going to a new sixth form. I’m not particularly confident I’ve never had a issue making friends. I’m just worried about like what if the teacher isn’t good and makes me hate the subject. Because your subject depends on your teacher he/she will either make you love it or hate it
That's no problem at all, loads of people will be nervous and have many worries themselves. I would definitely say most people mature in sixthform in terms of increases in confidence and speaking to others. Go in the first few weeks with an open mind and you'll do great 👍
This doesn’t really matter but I was just wondering, do the teachers make you sit in a dedicated seating plan or do they just allow you to sit wherever?
Depends on school, wherever usually
Yes it depends on who really, for us we could choose pretty much every class!
I start tomorrow, Biology Psychology and Media, really hope this goes well
Enjoy sixth form!
Currently studying maths, physics and economics at A-level. How far into year 12 should I be doing past papers? Looking to achieve a-a* in each. Thanks in advance!
Really depends on what you want to do but I would recommend doing them for revision for upcoming tests/exams. But usually, you want to be doing practice qus any time you learn something new!
Underrated don
Great video! I was wondering whether or not you can give me any advice regarding revision techniques as I am still unsure as to what works best for me 🙁 keep up the great content!!
Yes I will make a video on this in the near future but maybe mind maps, blurting all your knowledge on paper and seeing what you missed, flashcards, trying to teach hard concepts to friends/family who no nothing about it. I will make videos about the importance of using active recall (testing yourself) and spaced repetition (gradually going back over content so you don't forget it completely)
@@JadenYee Thank you! 🙂
Thank you very much! Any advice for someone who has a limited time to study?
Try to create a good revision time table which isn't really based on the amount time studying. I will make a video on this so be sure to stay awake! It will be about retrospective revision timetables and how you can use them effectively to revise.
any tips on how to organise folders in sixth form? i'm not sure what i'm going to need to buy.
Will be doing a sixth form essentials video very soon! In summary, I would get 1 big folder for each subject and have a day folder like unjaded jade suggests to organise all your lessons you have each day. Go watch her video for more info about it, I used that and it was very useful!
amazing video !!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much bro
this is a very helpful video. i just finished yr 11 and going into yr 12. should i start revising my a level maths course in the holidays as i am worried i may fall behind.
Year 11 is very different to Year 12 but I would definitely recommend staying up to date with the basics and being solid on things you know you will be using in A-levels. Otherwise please enjoy your holiday!
Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
Also I think you forget you do subjects you enjoy which makes studying more fun and the time goes faster!
I'm kinda scared of going into sixth form now bc I've decided to resit 6 of my GCSES and idk how I'm gonna cope, with the only hope that it'll be over by December 😃🚣
Goodluck with your exams, if you study well and focus on your goal, then I'm sure you will do fine!
no offence but why did you choose to resit 6 GCSEs? how will you cope with the workload if you are doing at least 3 A-Levels & then studying for 6 other subjects
@@wolfzmusic9706 I'm not really happy with my grades :/ and because I've been given to option to resit them, I would rather take the chance and get better results so I'll have more uni options open for me then regret not even trying :)). About coping with the workload, I'm sure I'll manage bc I'm just revising over them for the next three months and not really learning anything new. I've not really got any commitments either, other than volunteering and I'll have enough hours to memorise stuff. 😌 Obviously this is only going to last for 3-ish months- that's the only fact that's calming me rn 😭😭 (does it help that 3 of the GCSEs are ones I'm taking for A-Level too?)
@@palomatissues832 well i have some grades that i’m not happy with either but i resit none of mine cuz my grade could easily be lowered. i’m not taking any chances
@@wolfzmusic9706 fair enough :)) my predicteds were higher than my grades and some other mitigating circumstances is what really set me to do this 😭😭
Oh gosh that’s so bad with the amount of exams in year 12. Thank you so so much for the information cuz they don’t tell me that in school and I didn’t know😭 also because of the workload in year12 do you think revising over the summer before the yr 12 will help?
You're welcome! Honestly, I think it's fine if you don't revise over the summer but just make sure you don't forget the basics in each subject!
Hi, I am sort of in a very similar situation to yours. I just sat my gcses and am predicted all 9s in physics, chem, maths and bio. I’m sooo torn between an astrophysics route or medicine and thus was thinking of picking all 4 of them as a levels with no epq. Any suggestions on what i can do to lessen the stress or should i consider dropping one ? Thanks for the video , it was very informative.
could you please do a video on careers and uni courses that you can use with maths and physics? im starting my a-levels and I literally have no idea what I need to pick
Yes this is a possible video idea! In the meantime, you can do your own research on uni websites and clicking the courses and seeing entry requirements for them
This is fate because I never thought anyone would do a video with the same subjects, but I'm kind of scared tho cos I'm doing these at Brampton manor where if you don't get high enough you get kicked out plus everyone there is a genius. (I wanna try to apply to do med and apply for Oxbridge but I'm not good enough)
Ahh that sounds quite intense! I'm sure you're gonna do great. Definitely apply to oxbridge, you will surprise yourself!
I really want to go to dental school but I heard some universities require maths or physics🥲 I’m not good at physics idk what to do:(
Most universities that do dentistry don't require maths of physics I found. They usually want chemistry and atleast 1 other science as a general rule so you don't be forced into doing something you don't want to!
the more interest you in the subjects you take the less discipline you will require to an extent
Awesome video, new subscriber :)
Thank you so much it means alot!!
I do better studying less subjects, so I’m just going to practice practice practice with questions based on the topics I’m learning from the very start. I ain’t interested in friends, to be honest, although I realise I’ll get some actual friends who want to do well.
I work well with flash cards, so for mathematics and history, I’ll be doing flashcards for that.
I’m a chess player, so I always analyse what I do wrong and work on that to improve. That’s why I went from grade 5 to 8 in a few months in mathematics.
Can’t I just do 2 hours of revision a day right?
i mean u could only if it works for you imo
Yo bro out of the subjects u did which one was ur hardest and which one was ur easiest And would you say maths is hard, cheers bro.
I found chemistry the hardest but maths was definitely 2nd hardest. Physics was probably easiest but still hard so don't assume it is easy!
I will be making a video about my a level results and my thoughts on all these subjects so stay tuned!
@@JadenYee oh ok what makes chemistry the hardest and thanks for the video bro
great video! what subjects did you take if u dont mind
He took maths physics chemistry biology and epq
^
thank you so much so helpful
hey thank u so much for the video, ill be taking bio, physics, chemistry as a private candidate, any advice on that
Thank you for your kind words! I don't have much experience in terms of your situation but I would assume that the basics would apply except you will just have to find more resources on your own which is not a huge issue. There are great resources like physics and maths tutor, youtube etc which will be able to help if you have any problems!
Hey, I've just started at sixth form and am taking biology, chemistry, core maths and physics (similar to what you did), but I'm not sure about continuing chemistry and might change it to Maths. Any advice?
Hi, if you already know which course you want to do then I would look at the university requirements for the subjects required and that may help you to decide. Otherwise I think everyone will experience different subjects differently but I would ask yourself why you are not sure about continuing chemistry and want to start maths. You could always talk to your teachers for their opinions but these are early days for sixth form so another alternative is that you wait a little while longer to see if anything changes.
I'm doing biology, chemistry and psychology.
Nice, they sound like a good combo!
@@JadenYee Thanks.
same but also German
@@KamisatoElias nice
How has it been (I’m doing the same I’m starting this September)
