Thank you so much for this, I'm going into year 12 after the summer and am really nervous for a new environment and schedule, as well as having chosen really difficult subjects for a-levels. It also doesn't help that I've started to worry about college as well, so these key reminders are really helpful to ground me and remind me of what's truly important: my sanity. I used your videos throughout GCSEs for support (fingers crossed for good results) and am glad that I've got your videos to lean on during sixth form as well!

[@JadenYee]

You'll do just fine don't worry about it. Glad to hear that I've helped a bit!

[@WeedSmokingBrony]

Me too brutha ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽

[@shinzo5744]

So how did it go

[@Justhkk]

Thanks, I really needed this especially since I’m going to year 13 and I’ve felt like I wasted my year 12. Could you share your tips on how you managed to apply for dentistry in such a short amount of time and specifically for dentistry any tips on personal statements, extra curricular activities you did, how much work experience, interview strategies/specific things you said and what made you stand out and be accepted in such a competitive field. Thank youuuu 😊

[@mandafromiuppiter]

Thanks, I really needed this especially since I’m going to year 13 and I’ve felt like I wasted my year 12 😅. I think taking everything step by step is probably the best thing I can do for year 13.

[@JadenYee]

Yes for sure otherwise it becomes a whole big mess!

[@JadenYee]

Hope you enjoy the video! What are you looking forward to/worried about sixth form?

[@Mimi99004]

I totally agree with all these points and honestly want to thank you so much, I'm going into year 13 and stressing over this history essay that's currently going to be 20% of my grade that I've lost all my planning for, but watching your video has reminded me to take my time and revise what I truly need to do to be successful while in my last year of A levels. Thank you so much for this, I really appreciate, this video helped me get out of my anxiousness and start thinking clearer ^^ (me about to go watch all your other six form videos O.o)

[@rogueassailant8130]

It's mainly subject choosing. I'm just a tad worried about going towards medical. I love the sound of it and the charm and above all its primarily because I have a passion for it. The thing that irritates me is that I couldn't secure an A* but just an A and since medical has alot of competition I'm worried about entering into a good uni. On the other hand I have a strong foundation laid for engineering and many co curriculars which would let me glide through engineering and ngl I have a passion for aerospace andf a bit of electrical as well. I'm just stuck between two worlds, and going for all four subjects would be a bit risky imo because writing research papers and extra curriculars all together can be a handful :( Any advice???

[@gamecubebro]

Thanks for this video, I love seeing your knowledge being shared especially because I'll be following similar subjects and it was after a pretty rough GCSEs and I need to make sure I don't bite more than I can chew for such a vital year towards year 12

[@MementoMori_222]

Honestly thank you so much, this video is super helpful, although even hearing about sixth form makes me panic. Really worried about moving on, at the moment it feels like I’m being flung into the arctic all alone, since I’m going to a good school, better than my secondary, which is the worst in the area. I think it’s best to work hard and take it slow, as you said, and not beat myself up with small things that are inconsequential. This video reassured me, thank you:)

[@17macbet3]

thank you so much! feeling much more prepared and optimistic for year 13 now and glad im not the only person who doesn't think note taking is a valuable use of time

[@nagia7188]

Thank you for making these types of videos jaden! You’re like a big brother to us 🩷 thank you for all your advice and motivational words

[@DarlingxChelsea]

This video has been incredibly useful and I’ll definitely return back to it often. I’m very grateful to have come across your channel. Keep up the great work! 🙌

[@JadenYee]

Thank you so much!

[@SS_18_swag]

Thank u so much for this video, it's made me feel prepared and feel so much better about starting year 12! :)

[@dagreenbaby8359]

this video helped sm thank you it was a relief to hear some things, but im mostly worried about revision im so bad at it i hate revising :/ but i hope with the courses i have chosen i will have a bit more fun i honestly hope so

[@36526]

Great tip for maths just go over the text book, watch videos and practice, practice,practice past paper questions, as of now I don't have any proper maths notes for a level, just past papers that are done and a mind map of all the important things I must remember. I also do Chemistry luckily my teacher has a youtube channels so I can learn ahead thus I also do mindmaps for chemistry and just study. Biology is a lot of content so I take notes for that and memorize and most importantly UNDERSTAND! Also is anyone else nervous for results day (those going to year 13)?

[@ZainabKhan-lf8hq]

Hiiii, I really enjoy watching your videos I was wondering if you can do a video about how to be organised in uni? And what to do and what not to do

[@AshA-cp1jq]

Nice camera Jay! is it new?

[@noorraza7595]

I started year 12 and idk i felt horrible like im dropping maths alevel but dont know what to chose instead but all of it created stress and anxiety which i got over because i took a day off but i felt overwhelmed i felt scared abt alevels bcuz of the negativity that i was surrounded by but i felt relieved listening to u so thank u 😭🫶🏻

[@Hiba.07]

Such a great video, thank you so much! I’m taking biology, chemistry, maths and business. I want to study dentistry hopefully too :)

[@JadenYee]

Glad you liked it and goodluck!

@@JadenYee thank you :)

I appreciate this so much 😊

[@dakangee8221]

Thank you jaden! I’m ready to ace my sixth form now 💯

[@JadenYee]

I am very glad to hear that, go smash it!

[@sapphire9133]

Thank you so much for these videos Jaden! Honestly they’re really helpful

Thank u so much for this!

You're very welcome!

[@cremegg]

Really insightful video, i'm quite excited fro sixth form but its looking a bit hard.

[@JadenYee]

Just do little by little and you'll be okay :)

[@sp0t.]

super helpful video!!!! :)

[@dalmapeller2285]

Yeha ive made the writing notes mistake..................... aaaaaaa i a mgoing into second year and i am just trying to take everything step by step. its difficult but it is this way for a reason. Thank you for sharing your mistakes

[@JadenYee]

Everyone does the same thing but it's good we learn from our mistakes!

[@manahilhussain5297]

Could you make a video on how to revise for A-level Chemistry i'm currently in year 12 .

[@felixscheesestick5315]

honestly I'm going to make flashcards in my lessons instead of notes that way once I get home I can start using them immediately. notes haven't helped me either, I plan on only writing the tips teachers give us (stuff you can't get from the textbook)

[@Hiba.07]

I’m gonna try do that too but also practice questions and learning the mark scheme

[@JadenYee]

That's a good idea!

[@zeinebdjenouri803]

Hi,can you please make a video on how you edit your videos

[@user-jz2up5iu1f]

thank you

[@mxralheart401]

This very useful im starting in September and have been so scared

[@Aziz_tester]

Hi, I'm going to start Six Farm or College in September, I don't know which one is better, but I want to study civil engineering, which one do you think is good in the future?

[@Quran-sunnah-salafiyyah]

hey jaden , thanks for the useful video. i have one question about a level biology. im taking it purely because i liked it at gcse and not because i am interested in pursuing it later in uni . do you think it is worth taking bio even if i dont plan on pursuing it later on ? btw im taking it alongside english lit and history

[@noel.m7148]

If u need it later in life then do, if u don't need then don't do it unless Yr sure u get good grade

[@jasmine4898]

fdkjsvdskjvb I am from HK doing IAL in the coming year and I'm kinda nervous (screams) but thanks for the videos. I somehow found answers to my questions which have been lingering in my head for a long time.

[@JadenYee]

Wow that's great to hear! Goodluck in your studies!

[@Sunny-nn7um]

Is it bad to already know what you want to study at university and beyond? In the video you said anyone that already knows is lying or wrong, but I've been dead set on the same thing since year 10.

[@unjason]

No its not bad.

[@Ruby.U]

Im entering year 12 this September and I recently just moved to the UK so I don't know whether I should use notebooks or binder paper for my notes.

[@felixscheesestick5315]

it doesn't really matter it's all down to personal preference. I suppose binder paper is easier since you can organise your folder by chapter if you prefer that

[@Ruby.U]

@@felixscheesestick5315 Okay, thanks

[@JadenYee]

You'll have lots of time to figure it out in lessons what works best! I wouldn't worry about it

[@athelia5689]

Me too!!

[@cleowatson3879]

My sister studied but she also crammed before her exam and she got 3 a*s so i think it does work

[@ismaelkhan6332]

doesn't writing notes in class help it to stick better. better than just listening right? especially if notes r handwritten..

[@JadenYee]

Definitely can help for some people!

[@unjason]

Bro I need sixth form fits help

[@aeliemanning7448]

Watching for comfort. Already made some bad mistakes.

[@l0wk3y6.]

Oh my god 💀

[@learnwithalesia7890]

What textbooks do you recommend for your subjects? Ive heard sometimes CGP has insufficient detail? 😅

[@JadenYee]

I still used CGP textbooks in all my subjects and found that it did have sufficient detail to atleast get a good understanding of each topic. Then I would look at the textbooks your school provides which are probably going to be the same ones the exam board recommends! But remember to complement this learning with lots of practice!

[@learnwithalesia7890]

@@JadenYee Thank you so much for the reply 😊 I'll be using all these tips next year!

[@tyrionpapersdotcom]

That's awful
