I've been having odd sandwich combos so I can use all my ingredients before they go off. Yesterday was tomato, spring onion, cheese, and cucumber. :)

freshlycutgrass' IB Exams Blog 1/28 (25th April)

I have decided that I am going to be posting everyday of my exam period in order to keep accountability for studying and to have something to look back on. I will be posting study tips, blurts of what I revised that day, reflections on how my exams are going and other related things. Today is going to be an introductory post!

HL English (6) - 12th May

HL English (6) - 12th May

HL Psychology (6) - 17th / 18th May

HL Anthropology (6) - 28th / 29th April

SL French (6) - 19th / 20th May

SL Maths (5) - 6th / 9th May

SL ESS (5) - 5th / 6th May

I'll come back later and add links to the posts talking about these exams once I've done them :)

I think overall I'm going to get around 33-4 points which is slightly lower than I had wanted when I started the IB but because I didn't come to school for most of the last three / four months of school, it's the most realistic grade I can achieve.

I have been studying a little bit over the past few weeks but not as much as I would have wanted to (for reasons mentioned above) so I'm really hoping to make the most of how much space there is between exams.

Tomorrow I'll be talking about how I'm studying for each subject + tips! The other posts will be more interesting than this, I just wanted to make a quick introduction!

freshlycutgrass's exam blog: days 2 & 3 bc i totally did some work yesterday...

Hi! I'm writing this the day before my exams start - eek!!

I've had a burst of motivation to study today, but only after I had cleaned and rearranged my desk. It was helpful procrastination I swear !! Because now I can have enough room on my desk to write stuff and use a textbook, rather than having to have the textbook on my lap or something.

Today I've gotten a lot done and I feel pretty much as ready as I can be for tomorrow. I've gotten my exam pencil case ready (pencils, black pens, ruler, rubber/sharpener, calculator, emotional support frog, highlighters...)

For the rest of today I'm going to continue with my to-do list - it was the first one I'd made in months !!!!!!! Which makes me very happy because I haven't been able to study / do literally anything productive over the last fiveish months because of my mental health (actually, this time, not like above lol) but I've been back to working like I used to! I've been watching rumplestudy's co-working stream on twits (rlly recommend!), making a todo list (and actually doing it), taking healthy breaks, and altogether managing to balance listening to myself and my body with doing the work I need to do!

I don't feel as nervous for my actual IB exams as I did for my mock exams, though maybe that'll change tomorrow morning lol.

I'll update tomorrow with how my first exam went!
