Q&A session with me Part 1

Q&A session with me Part 1

Hey guys !

About a few weeks ago during my exams in May, I asked you lot to ask me any questions so I could put it together in a blog post. I thought this could help maximise easy acmes to majority of the questions that I get asked often . So I have put the question together in categories form and this blog post will be in two parts.

Application to Medical School 2019 Entry

Hello everyone !

Apologies

First i will like to apologise for not posting in a while, I have been very busy with uni work, application process and some personal things in my life. I actually noticed that anytime I write a blog post after a while all I do is to first apologise, I hope to stop being inconsistent which is going to be one of my goals for new year coming.

My experience on results day

My experience on results day

Hey guys,

It’s been a while I know. If anyone of you sat one exam or the other this past academic year, we all experience results day one way or the other through our study life. Through this post will be sharing my experience of all the results day I had this summer. 

First of all, as you all know from my last few blogs, I told you that I was sitting my A-levels exams. However, I was not…

Tips and Tricks on How to Survive Home Sickness

Tips and Tricks on How to Survive Home Sickness

What do you feel whenever you are away from home or your family?

Sometimes we might have been eager to leave home even before the start of university, however, it is normal to sometimes feel a bit homesick. If you are suffering from homesickness, I want you to know that you are not alone. Moving away from home is a huge change, either to the university or to start living independently by yourself.

How I revised for A-level exam plus my University exam.

Hey guys 🙂

Since it is the end of exam season, I thought I should share with you my study routine during these times of my life. An interesting fact about me which I didn’t share with you all on my Instagram page is that I was also sitting A-levels exam while I was doing my university pharmacy exams. I decided to do these exams not because I was resiting them, but because I didn’t have them…

Beautiful notes 😍

Reading and making mythology notes. The blue rose is so pretty and because it’s preserved it’s said to last 1 to 3 years (ahhh).

The Night Before Your Exam

Hello, hi there. Recently I made a post about what to do the day of your exam and it’s still getting notes which is amazing. Thank you all. So now, please enjoy these realistic tips for the night before your exam that do not involve perfum, gum, or cramming. Please don’t cram.

Get a good night’s sleep. I know that for many of us this is a major challenge because we deal with insomnia or anxiety disorders that keep us awake. Try taking a warm bath in Epsom salts. Stay in the tub until you break a sweat. Pick your salts wisely because some of them are more energizing (i.e lavender salts are more energizing I have found).

If you are having trouble sleeping because of tension in your neck/back, try to relieve the tension by rolling out your muscles on the floor, or conciously tensing them up for about 10-20 seconds before slowing releasing. The Epsom salt bath really helps with any sort of tension. I have chronic nerve pain from a car accident and it’s one of the few things that help me that is more holistic.

Don’t shy away from melatonin. It works wonders and you won’t feel “hung over” in the morning like you may with Z-Quil. They have melatonin gummies too!

Try lowering your body temperature. Sleep naked. It’s life changing. If you can’t sleep naked (because you live in a dorm) still do your best to keep it cool. Our bodies get tired when their temps are lower.

Additionally, do not cram for any exam. The night before your exam is not the time to be learning any new material. We are way past that. Gently refresh the material that you already know; however, do focus on items you may struggle with. Remember, althetes don’t go crazy hard the day before a game - treat your brain the same way; no heavy lifting.

You may take this time to rewrite your notes. It’s a simple act that can definitely help you to remember.

Try teaching the material to someone else, or if no one else is available - stand in the mirror and give your own personal TedTalk on the subject. Hey, if it works for Sims, right? Remember that if you can teach the material, you know it. Reiterating in your own words is so helpful.

This should go without saying, but eat a good dinner.

Use the “Match,” “Test,” and “Spell” functions on Quizlet. Very helpful.

Have I said do not cram yet?

Lay out your clothes for the morning. The fewer decisions the better.

You’re going to want to wake up with enough time to review your study materials a couple more times, get ready for the day, and leave for the exam early (so that you have time to review when you get there and to ensure you are on time!) So set your alarm in advance.

Make sure that you set out your blue book, calculator, etc. so that you are prepared for the exam tomorrow and you aren’t sprinting across campus to find somewhere that sells blue books.

Triple check that alarm.

Try to limit your use of electronics 30 minutes before you need to fall asleep. I know that isn’t always reasonable though. Just make sure your phone is plugged in so that it is well charged and ON when you need that alarm to go off.

Drink some water.

Don’t drink any coffee or other caffeinated beverage/over induldge in nicotine/or take your *prescription!!!* adderall after 8 PM. Really for the Adderall don’t take it after like 5:30. You will be up all night long, my friend.

Okay last time: do not cram for any exam. That’s like over extertion for your brain and it will take you time to recover. If you continuously pull all nighters to cram you will crash and burn eventually. So just start early on your study plan. You can make time for it, I promise.

Happy studying, realistic students!

I really love 😍 her packs they are really good and handy

2 Free Language Study Printable Packs

I’ve been meaning to make this pack for ages but as someone who hasn’t learnt a language in years I was unsure on what would be best - but thanks to your suggestions I’ve made this 16-page pack with lots of things that you can use (as featured in the image) and an additional 8-page pack with blank headers for your customisation.

Some pages are similar but hopefully will cater to most languages and study methods :-) You can delete and duplicate the files once downloaded if there are some you don’t need! All 16 pages come in the single file, and the 8 pages in another - it may take a moment to load the preview of all pages, but once downloaded they will all appear. You can download it from the link below:

Download link here (to both packs)

You can see other free printables here :-)

I hope you enjoy using and customising these printables! If you upload a photo featuring it, I’d love to see. Please tag me on Tumblr with #emmastudies or on Instagram with @emmastudiess. You can see other people using my printables by visiting the #esprintables tag on my blog! Please remember, these printables are for personal use only and should not be redistributed as your own.

If you want to find more organisational printable and support me, please check out my Etsy shop with lots of downloads dedicated to students. You can use ‘student10′ to get 10% off any purchase! :-)

Cleaned down my study space today as it boosts my motivation to study more. Did some chemistry practice today and met all my To Do list except going to the library tonight 😊 Fun fact is that it is easy to make plans but sticking to them needs a lot of work. However if you can't meet all, be satisfied with the little you met and do them deligently🤗. #studygram #study #studyblr #studyblog #studyblogger #motivation #stationery #stationeryaddict #jetstreampen #muji #mujipens #studymotivation #stationerylove #studentlife #student #inspiration #notes #notegraphy #notestagram #studyinspo #studyspo #bulletjournal #bujo #studywithme #studyinspiration #premed #medicine (at Norwich, Norfolk)
