Well done! How did you revise? :smile:


Thank you!
I made a mix of flashcards and mind maps (dependent on which I personally preferred for each subject) and made sure everything was clearly labelled and colour coded.
Closer to exams I would get a friend, teacher or parent to test me on the content and basically do a 'verbal test' with them.
I also used some past papers, but I now realise I should've used more :smile: And the examiners reports too!

good luck!

Damn. Amazing job! Only on TSR eh :tongue:.

I got 2A* 4A 5B 1C (I never should have taken psychology as my extra option (my C grade)). I didn't revise much for them so I was kinda happy, that approach definitely won't work with AS.

Thanks :biggrin:, taking economics, maths, physics & unfortunately geography. I wanted to take further maths, but I didn't have a A* in maths so I had to take geography which is ok, but not motivating. What about you and how on earth did you manage 15 gcses?

I made a note of any topics I found difficult as I did the past papers, then any I got wrong as I marked each one, then made a few notes/read over each topic before doing the next paper.



No worries :smile:



It's a bindi, 'cause I'm totally indie like that :wink:


Yeah, kinda similar to Gwen Stefani and her rock band No Doubt, I see the connection:wink:
I swear economics is like one of the most popular A level choices lol, I'm not surprised tbh
