Finished with exams!

Yesterday was my last exam, and today I have never felt more liberated and free. As a whole I am happy with my exams, I feel as if the majority went extremely well, but I am disappointed with how my mechanics 1 module in further maths went. I suppose that the problem with exams is that in one way it is the luck of the draw, sometimes the wrong questions come up and it just doesn't go as well as you hoped, which for me happened in my M1 exam, and it is infuriating because I know that I am capable of getting 100% sometimes on my M1 papers, but that day it just all went wrong. Apart from that the rest of my exams went well. It is true what they say though AS is much harder than GCSE.

However, now I am just happy to be done, to have time again that is not taken up revising, time that I will now focus on utilising for both actually having a social life, but also to spend more time on working on this blog, working on my MOOC, reading as many medical related novels as possible and begin researching a topic for the EPQ that I hope to complete this forth coming year.

Starting a MOOC - (the MOOC was finished, despite my lack in tracking my progress on this blog)

Today I enrolled in a MOOC with Edinburgh University. The MOOC (also known as Massive Open Online Course) is called: the clinical psychology of children and young people.
My reasoning for starting the MOOC is that I have been so inspired by my voluntary work with children that I wanted a way to expand on these experiences, and learn more about clinical psychology along the way.

The course will end on the 5th July and involves completing weekly quizzes online, that are related to the videos and extra reading done on each particular topic for that week.

The course certainly looks fascinating, and I am intrigued and excited to learn more about clinical psychology, and in general expand on my own knowledge and independent learning skills.
