Sitting 6 A-level Maths exams in the summer?

I'm doing the exact same thing 😩

Papers are the best way I think for maths.
Maybe do a paper or two a week (maybe C1 and C2 one week then C3 and C4 the next). Once you come closer to the exams so more papers. That's what I did at AS and came out with all over 90. So I'm assuming it will apply with 6 papers :L

Well, I'm on top of C3 but I haven't the faintest clue what's going on in C4 >.< I have a really crap teacher who "covers" an entire section (e.g integration) in one lesson and expects us to understand what he's on about and yeah sure, I got a D. B's in C1 and C2 and a U on S1

I've got 7, it feels horrible doesn't it! I've read over the specification for each exam and tried to look at stuff that overlaps to cut down on revision, for instance all the calculus and remainder/factor theorems.

Maybe try looking up videos online and reading through the book ? Basically learning it by yourself I don't know what else to recommend if your teacher is bad.

My other A levels are bio and chem, which thankfully don't require much writing compared to the likes of English/politics etc.. [though bio does have 25 mark essays] and I've pretty much done the same thing, by doing past papers and by reading notes too.

After doing A-level maths, I can honestly say doing all the papers is probably the best way to revise (for me at least). I did C1,2,3,4 and S1 and S2 in one summer and I used every paper since 2005 to revise. The solution papers that comes with the exam papers are really good for going through each step of a question.

Aha yes, everyone keeps saying this actually. Were you resitting the AS modules or were you doing them for the first time?

I resat the AS modules, you'd probably won't need to focus too much on C1 and C2 if you get the hang of C3 and C4. The papers all have similar styles/questions to each other so doing all the papers really helps to get used to them.

I'm doing are 6 maths exam, all bio and all chem this summer. I do As revision during weekends

I'm going to be sitting all of my A-level Maths exams (C1, C2, C3, C4, S1 and S2) in the summer to try and raise my chances of getting an A overall.

Any tips on how I should try and balance my AS & A2 revision? Also, is anyone else in this situation?

Damm man. How are some of you going to cope with like 20 exams? I think I need to do more resits now. This made me more motivated. Thanks brah

That's a good idea actually, never looked at it that way! Are yours the A2 core exams or FM?
