I didn't either . I had extra tuition but still only got an E in the AS . Not that I expect that to be of much help to you, but I think maybe some people just don't get certain subjects.

Chemistry can be a hard subject, but it will all click and suddenly everything makes sense. Make sure to read from the basics, if you don't understand any of the simple things you will never understand the harder later things.
If you're on OCR, I highly recommend buying the textbook and going through it one double-page-spread at a time. You'll come to understand all the little things that constitute the more difficult areas, as well as understand the difficult areas themselves.

Totally agree with this. I never used to like chemistry in GCSE and only got a B in it. My dad somehow persuaded/forced me to do chemistry at A level and it was a blessing in disguise. I struggled for the first few months till I grabbed hold of GCSE chemistry book and started from scratch and ended up achieving an A in Alevel. Chemistry like maths is one of those subjects which you need to know the basics and then everything will flow. Btw, guess what I'm currently studying at uni....
Chemistry isn't a subject you can jump into at say Higher level, but if you can master the basics, everything falls into place. My favourite subject. Need any help, up to higher level atm, you can PM me
