If ur not understanding how it works i guess ur only option is to memorise how to use each mechanism and the tests. For this i suggest cue cards and writing it out at least ten times or until it sticks so that if anyone asks u to draw it out you'd be able to do it without thinking even if u hav no idea what ur doing :p:

$.

Either this or u could ask ur teacher to explain it to u again but don't have the mindset of "i can't do this" otherwise u'll unconsciously give up before u can completely understand which will be very demotivating so it'll take u even longer to get it. Instead have the mindset of "i can do this".

Hope this helps :biggrin:

Thank you man!!! Really helpful!
What is the point of module 1? Do you need to know it?
And do we need to know about PAG? (Will we be tested on it?)

Yes. They will ask questions based on practicals you've done. Just remeber the steps and the names of the equipment u need to use for each test and u should be fine - plz look at ur spec to know which parts specifically u need to know about though

Let me crack down on providing a proper solution to this problem in the next week. It's getting ridiculous if people can't access the resources. Can anyone please confirm which resources are not available, if not all? Based on my testing I can access all resources without issue.

Hi everyone, I am retaking my chemistry A level this year but I am just not improving! I'm doing all the past papers but I'm still on Bs and Cs, - I really really need an A this year. Does anyone have any advice please, as to what might be going wrong? Or am I just really thick?

@ForgottenApple What are the keys to doing well in chemistry?? I got a C last year and I desperately need an A this year! I'd really appreciate it if you could tell me exactly what you did aside from just being really intelligent. Can an average person like me get an A if I do the right things?

Anyone can get an A.

1. No Music
2. Do Past Paper
3. Mark Past Paper
4. While marking paper what did you get wrong
5. Record score
6. Do you understand why you got it wrong?
7. Next paper, repeat.
8. Track all recorded scores on excel, they should trend upwards, if not return to step 6.

Chemistry is without a doubt the hardest A level you will be doing, so rise the challenge and spend the time to understand the content. (AND memorize the stuff you need to like definitions too).
