Sorry you've not had any responses about this. :frown: Are you sure you've posted in the right place? :smile: Here's a link to our subject forum which should help get you more responses if you post there. :redface:

You can also find the Exam Thread list for A-levels here and GCSE here. :dumbells:


Just quoting in Puddles the Monkey so she can move the thread if needed :h:

Spoiler

Try to write down everything given in the question, then what they ask for.
When you try to solve for a variable, with a given set of variables, look or think for an equation that will fit them.
For instance, you're given a current and a resistance, and asked to find voltage.
Immediately you should look for an equation that links voltage, current and resistance together. (V=IR)

For more complicated questions try extracting the bare information given, forgetting about all the waffle along with the question. Turn the word question into a numbers one, and you should be fine :smile:
A highlighter helps!
