Summary

While doing GCSEs, they struggled with ME and found that homeschooling worked, since they could work from bed. They mentioned splitting exams across the year to save energy, applying for rest breaks with extra time added on, and claiming an extra percentage for compromising circumstances. They offered encouragement to another student, saying you can only do what you can do.
