Does anyone have any advice on how to imrpove your grade in inorganic chemistry? I have done all the new spec paper 1s and now doing some old spec and practice set papers, I analyse my marks properly with the MS and watch video walkthroughs and go back to the topics I have mistake on and work on them before attemopting a new paper but I don't seem to be exceeding 75% which considering the 2018 and 2019 grade boundries it barely counts as an A (72% for paper 1 is an A in 2019) and I don't know what I should be doing to imrpove. Any tips?

Hi everyone. So I looked at papers from 2017 to 2022 and I have made a document that contains all of the major topics that came up. I only focused on Section B, as that is literally 85% of the entire paper. I did the same thing with OCR A Biology Paper 1.
I have also added the prediction topics made by Primrose Kitten. Yes, I bought paper 1 only to experiment, just to see if her predictions are accurate because so many people say they are good and some say they are dead. I'm also dropping prediction topics made by MaChemGuy.
Anyway, I'm going to drop the link to the document below.

Happy revising

I saw your biology document as well and I have been using it. Can't express how thankful I am!!

First of all, thank you for using the document. I'm just tryna help everyone out by mentioning topics that come up over and over again. I'll make Paper 2 and Paper 3 Biology and Chemistry in a few days maybe. Right now I wanna focus on Maths and Bio, which is literally next week. If any of you need help, I'll happily provide you with some. If you want, I can attach a Paper 1 prediction paper from Primrose Kitten for Biology and Chemistry. You don't have to pay me for it, I'll give it for free. Just send me a private message if you want it.
As this is a Chemistry thread, if anyone wants a copy of the 2022 paper 1 chemistry, just let me know. You can use it as a revision resource.

Identify any weaknesses that you have. Try to do questions related to that topic. I recommend using Dalton Chemistry Tuition. They do topic questions for inorganic and organic papers.

my best tip would be to learn the mechanisms and conversions, like really understand it and how they work, remembering all the reagents and stuff, that comes up a lot like 50% of the paper - as for nmr, i am clueless so if anyone knows how to do nmr i would like some help lmao

With NMR, most of the time I can never get the final compound but that is only one mark. So i make sure to show all the steps for how to work it out. Chemical shift and the group it relates to, talks about the splitting pattern, the relative number of hydrogens and carbons in the specific environment.
hey does anyone know how good chemrevise notes are? do they cover everything in the spec?

Nope, sorry
Does anyone have any advice for the multiple choice sections on the chemistry exams I always do really badly on that part
Does anyone have the ocr 2022 papers? I have aqa and can swap.
