Omg, Have not posted in this thread for soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long.
Sorry for the Inactivity, but bulletzone promises more activity.
How I'm finding A-levels?
After experiencing my first Half term, I've learnt quite alot soo far.
A-levels are a step up from GCSE's and honestly How you react to certain situations will decide on your fate.
When I had my first couple of tests, they used that to get a vague idea of how my tracking would look.
I got a C in chemistry B in maths B in physics and an A in DT.
I was not happy, nor sad about the tracking, but what I want to do it prove to everyone but mostly myself how good i am.
AS-levels are a step up from GCSE's, personally I feel like the step is exaggerated as it's all about your resilience.
Maths:
I am finding Core 1 easy and Stats started off as a nightmare, but within the past few weeks, when my teacher asked me out of the blue for the Variance equation and the P.M.C.C I was able to say it perfectly.
I was motivated by this and I'm aiming for a top grade in maths.
Stuff I can rememeber we have covered:
-P.M.C.C
-S.R.C.C (Done today)
-All the types of graphs for statistics.
-Variance and Standard deviation
-All the Averages.
-Quadratics (looked at all possible stuff you can link to it. e.g. Completing the square, Quadrats from simultaneous etc).
-The other equation for a straight line.
-Indices
-Few fractions.
-Surds
-Possibly other stuff but I have forgotten.
Physics:
-Force and the newton
-Dynamics
-Drag and terminal velocity
-Equilibrium
-Turning forces
-Centre of Mass
-Density
-Pressure
-Work and the Joule
-The conservaion of energy
-Momentum
-Waves motion, Wave Terminology, Wave speed and equation, common properties of waves, Electromagnetic waves, Polarisation
Chemistry
We've done sooo much, so to save me typing I'm going to tell you which sections we have done and for what book.
OCR.
As/Alevel
1: Atomic structure
2: Amount of substance (Finishing next week)
3: Bonding.
What I'm doing:
-Over the course of this week and next week I am going to make sure I have understood everything and possibly read a few chapters ahead. I have been making notes to make my revision easier later on in the year.
-I hate flash cards, so I have been making questions on an App. I need to work more on this.
-Finished all my homework,and I'm not expecting much homework this week, so just gunna be revision of what we have done.
