3 days left and 3 AS exams to study for - is it possible

i want relatively high grades but i've had 0 motivation and ive been feeling dead all half term. I managed to finish mechanics (Edexcel M1) and did a bit of Chem2 revision but no biology. Is it realistic to still aim high? lol

You may not want to hear this but you deserve the grade you get. Whether A* or U. I would suggest past papers this late though..

takes a fool to believ u got full marks in bio with revising for it in like a day
You just need to get reading your notes and get going - it will be worth it and besides there is only a few days of pain to go. I suggest that you either revise for each one each day or do a chunk of each subject each day. No matter how you look at it you really need to get going.

Just try your best.

You have 3 days left and you're asking if it's possible to pass your exams on TSR, the answer may depend on how long it takes for you to decide to start revising
This thread is over half a year old...

I have little to no recollection of making this thread tbh
it's not the end of the world if you get a low grade in your mocks. you have 5 to 6 months to prepare for your real exams depending on your exam dates.
Haha this was about the real AS exams, just an old thread i found by mistake
Guys this is an old thread. But congrats on your results. What unis are you applying for?

true i could but like i said im not bothered enough to fake my statement of results for randos on here
i didnt learn bio in a day, i just did no revision in the half term before it, apparently (which i seem to hve blocked from my memory). I revised half of it before hand, i probably just finished it off and did past papers in the 3 days before

I'd be sceptical if he claimed to 'learn' it in a day and get full marks, but it's possible with just a day's revision.
I found at GCSE and A-Level that when I paid attention and made the effort to understand the material as I went along, I didn't have to do much revision at all. For stuff I was particularly comfortable with, I could just skim through the text book the night before an exam, think "Oh yeah, I remember that!" and end up doing well. This strategy did not work out very well for stuff I'd slacked on over the year, though!!!
