OCR A-Level Chemistry Revision HELP!

It is only 27 days until my exam and I feel like I know nothing at all! I just wondered if anyone had some effective methods of revising? I've tried going through the specification but it doesn't seem to be getting me anywhere! The fact that the OCR website is down doesn't help either! Thank you for any help :smile:

What parts are you finding difficult?...I'm doing the same course and the application really is the hardest part..read through the text book whilst making notes then do some past papers, if your still having difficulty, identify what your finding easy and what your finding difficult based on the past papers...then just re-read your notes on those topics..you'll be fine i'm sure you know more than you realise

I'm not exactly gifted when it comes to Chemistry! But thank you for your advice, I'll give it a go!
What I'm doing is going through the specification and textbook making sure I know all the content. Then Im doing the exam questions (taken from past and present specifications - really helpful). So by the time I start past papers, I should have little to correct in terms of technique!

Try http://www.knockhardy.org.uk/sci.htm - good for a summary
and http://www.chemguide.co.uk/ - good for explanations
just make sure you have the specification alongside so you know you're learning the relevant stuff :smile:
Personally I found the textbook was a bit useless :/
