NOO. Its not too late, if you start a strict revision ethic then it'll be easy for you to get A's :smile:

I revised for some of mine, last year, the night before and came out with A*'s :P

How did you revise?

Does he cover everything? I heard of him but didn't know he was that good. I'll check him out. Thanks.

Yes he does. go to his website then at the top there is a green button that says go to the old hegarty maths website and that is where u will find all the topics and different sections. the gcse videos playlist on youtube is just to secure a grade C/B. I used to watch things like mathswatch but they dont really give u real exam questions and they dont explain thing properly, like when u should use Pythagoras or trigonometry and how to know the difference (i didnt know these before)

You revised everything the night before? For what subjects? That's amazing :smile:

I've had a ton of coursework to do and so I haven't really been studying as much as I should have. If I start studying now a lot, is it too late to get an A? This is for all subjects, involving Maths, Chemistry, Physics, etc.

Thank you. :smile:

No it's not at all - I promise. I'll refer you to my post on another thread as to why:

So yeah - if I can do it so can you! :smile:

Good luck.

English Lit/R.S/ICT :smile:

I've done flashcards for everything in ICT and RE... Do you think it's possible I could learn them in the next week? Also, I'm on edexcel for English lit, how did you prepare for it?

Thanks in advance :smile:

Yeah, ICT is more (I believe) knowledge based with a few facts and figures. R.S is also, just makes sure you know definitions/quotes.

I made a mindmap the night before and I added different colours. I then re-read my quotes/notes on it again and again. I woke up three hours before the exam and I had stuck it above me on the wall so when I woke up I would be re-reading, trying to word (by heart) everything on the paper. Don't leave the bed until you know everything on and then keep asking yourselves questions on your way to school/telling yourself about the characters/themes.
