I'm quite set on doing Computer Science, although I will have to do more research since I've never done it for A Levels and such :3

As a new Yr 13 student, I can only share A2 tips I've heard from ex-A2 students myself - it's pretty much the same as AS tips, except how A2 will be on tougher content in most cases! :smile:

- Start home study/revision from day one! This will help you constantly keep all of the content fresh in your mind throughout the year and means you can afford to do less self study each day. If you don't do it each day, you'll have to do much more later!
- Buddy-up with friends or classmates who you know will actually focus on work in a group study session - make sure you will stay focused, too! This way you can offer each other your own knowledge and interpretations of trickier content.
- Read subject-related books to improve your background subject knowledge, both before and during A2. This will help you interpret the new content more easily.
- After a day at school/college, go back over your notes.
- This is one I figured out from AS - one of the best ways to organise yourself is to take an A4 refill notepad/A4 notepad into Sixth Form, then take the pad home with all your notes in and put individual sheets of notes for each subject into folders. This means you won't have to haul several folders around school with you, but keep in mind that you won't be able to access previous work content until you get home each day.

Hope these help! :smile:

On Saturdays go to uni library(if u can). They should have a silent study area. And do past papers.

Good for maths and science and stuff
