ccea A-level chemistry... its KILLING me :(
Can anyone help... I study so much for my exams, and come out feeling like I know absolutely nothing! It just seems like the more i learn, the less I know. I've got offers for Dentistry but feel like I'm not getting the chemistry which i desperately need. #needingseriousencouragement/help

Re: ccea A-level chemistry... its KILLING me :(I would print off a copy of the syllabus and work through that - you will likely find that a lot of material you have covered in class is not key material for the exams, so they'll be less you need to try and get in your brain.(Original post by #_Inspiration)

Yeah working straight from the syllabus helps alot, its whenever i actually get the information into my head, write it down in an exam and start thinking I may have actually done alright, then the marks come out and I'm like WHAT :O -
Re: ccea A-level chemistry... its KILLING me :(It's the marking of the exams i think that's killing everyone(Original post by Katieh007)
I'm in the same boat!!!!! CCEA a level chem is soooo hard!!!
Ive got affer to do pharmacy and need A/B in chem but dont think i will get it

It's so hard knowing you've done so well to get the offers but can't get excited because you'er unsure of the grades :/ it'll be a longgggg summer waiting on these grades lol

they're AQA ones, my teacher doesn't refer to them much at all though because CCEA are so picky over answers
what about you?
