What Went Well:
- Motivation : throughout my EPQ I was on the most part highly motivated (with the exception of a few dips especially at Christmas.) This was mainly due to the fact I was completing my project about something I am passionate about and highly enjoy.
- Keeping to Deadlines and Research : finished my research to the loose time constrictions I set myself and kept to the deadlines I set myself and set with my supervisor.
- Skill Development : Research skill development that I can transfer to university and other subjects. Also increased my independence and confidence as I had to develop these to send emails, make interviews etc with people I did not know.
What Would I Change:
- Time Management!! Leaving a lot to the last minute, putting EPQ on the backfoot compared to my other subjects, forgetting I can get UCAS points from this. I wouldn't do this next time, I would put more focus on EPQ especially around times without coursework etc in other subjects.
- Complete experiment : could've adapted to get over cost however I did not think of this until afterwards.
- Keeping up to date with everything so I didn't feel as stressed as I did at points.
- Expert opinions : broaden out my search to sport clubs not just university lecturers.
