In year 12 currently, but if my introduction and conclusion are literally 2-3 sentences max is this okay? I’m constantly being corrected on intro/conclusions more than anything but i find them so time consuming. The last in class assessment i had, i actually put effort into my introduction and did around 5 or 6 sentences, but then had no time to finish my essay. I only got 2/4 paragraphs done, and i’m worried i’ll face the same issue in a real exam

What i mean by this, is during GCSE i just fully skipped the unseen poetry part of the exam. I hate unseen poetry so just opted out and still managed to achieve a 7. I was about half way between a 7 and 8, not like i scraped a 7.

With A level, one of my teachers are outrageous. We should have completed one text, and all of the poetry section but we haven’t and it’s being left up to us as students to learn the content ourselves.
Both of these texts = 6% of my overall grade, so if i absolutely lock in and teach myself one of the texts, and just skip poetry, will this still give me the opportunity to get above a high B?

Sorry if this doesn’t make sense, lmk if anything needs clearing up :)

last year, I used to use pore strips once a week. My skin was really oily and a little red in my T-Zone. I've not used pore strips in nearly 6 months because i kept seeing people hating on them, but my skin just became super bad again. I'm battling black heads, dry yet super oily skin, texture and feel super gross all the time. At first i thought my skin was purging, but it just worsens. I can hardly wear makeup now without it just seeming to pool up on my dry skin.

I feel like tiktok emphasises on how bad pore strips are, but when i used them my skin was the clearest it'd ever been. I haven't felt truly clean in forever. If they worked for me, should i start using them again?

I’ve just seen a tiktok asking this and now i’m curious because that’d be such a good idea?! Like imagine you’re in a situation where you can’t talk, you just flip your camera and they can see for themselves?!
We have so much technology today, can anyone explain why this isn’t already a thing

Sometimes I feel so unfit as i’m gasping for air after walking up a flight of stairs, but I can easily walk for hours on end without even noticing a change in breathing patterns. Does anyone know the logic behind this?

Even running, i’m not as active as I was maybe 8/9 years ago, but if someone challenges me to a race I can complete it and not be outrageously out of breath, just a normal shortness due to the strain, but when i walk up 2 flights of stairs every morning to get to college i feel so light headed and my chest burns i’m so out of breath.

Why am I like this?! What is the reason behind it?!

Hii, what are you guys doing for your coursework?!
I’ve already chosen a feminist poet to do half on, but I cannot think of a book to complete my novel side on.
I don’t really enjoy fiction but obviously it needs to be for this coursework, however every time I ask my teacher for verification on whether a book is good to use or not, she always says no. She’s confirmed everyone else in my classes selected book, but i’ve submitted 4 separate requests with a document explaining my ideas and how i can apply it too a literary theory but she’s just continuously saying no. There is only one book she really wants me to do, and she seems seriously against me using any other one.

Does anyone have any recommendations for books i can apply to post colonialism or marxism that isn’t overly long? i’ve left it until very last minute so now im stressed ❤️

It annoys me so freaking much. People act like agreeing with one part of Republican ideology means you fully support Trump, but that’s not how it works. You can agree with some policies and still disagree with him as a leader. Or even just because you disagree with another parties ideology, they instantly assume you love and support trump.

Can we just educate ourselves on the topic of HAVING AN OPINION?! Like good lord i live in England and agree with one tiny thing that’s considered right wing and i get accused of supporting trump and condoning his actions..?
