Ideas

So I've decided to do the EPQ (Extended Project Qualification) which is a research based As level that helps towards critical thinking, research and report writing skills. I've been thinking about what to do for this for a while and haven't really come up with anything that I'd really want to do. Until today.

We had a meeting in college explaining what the EPQ is about and what we'd need to do over the Summer (this included starting up a blog to write about what we've been up to) and one of these things is picking a topic which for me would have to be maths. I love maths and find a lot of it very interesting and also think that there's potential for a lot of different routes to go. An example of this is to look at the maths behind pokemon a JRPG (Japanese Role Playing Game) which has a lot of maths in it in order to calculate damage done and weaknesses to different types and a lot of other things. Another idea I had was to look at NHS funding and possibly how leaving the EU may and has affected NHS funding. I have family who work within the NHS and it seems like a feesable thing to research and also very interesting.

So that's my 2 main ideas at the moment and hopefully with some research I might be able to properly decide on a more specific topic and eventually a question.
