DD started 6th form this term. She is really struggling - says there is too much to learn, too fast. She is having constant tests/assessments in biology and says it is threatening to take over her life.
Is this normal? I have two older daughters but they left 6th form years ago and I don't remember them getting upset/stressed - at least not until final exams.
Any experiences appreciated. DD took 9 GCSEs this year and got good grades in most. Some of her friends struggled but she seemed to keep it altogether okay so I can't understand why suddenly she feels so overwhelmed.
thanks!
