Yup just downloaded it, looks good but I won't start until I've finished with my other subjects xD . Only needing 64/150 for an A in this as far as I know.

You've already started working, so I think it's obvious who's more likely to achieve what they need :P .

I'll write up some really nice notes, do well in mocks, be able to do every question in the book and still panic and fail in the exam. It happened last time :facepalm:

We've only got 2 medical spreads left and were done learning the content, so a months worth of revision!

Yeah, he teaches us from a Power Point which has EVERYTHING on it, including the old specification stuff. So I guess he's been teaching us more in depth cosmology without realising.
So much time could have been saved in class. We only finished learning the course last week. Revision from now :smile:

I'm usually really good with exams somehow. My time management is great (except for that chem paper in January, only paper I've never finished). Just for some reason my brain is in top gear if its an exam, like I'll think of things I never would have done in class which helps me solve the questions, like that helicopter thing (q1) in the Newtonian World from Jan. But yeah, in class I just sit there staring out the window not doing anything xD . Though I do (normally) revise a hell of a lot, i.e read the book back to front, learn all definitions, do all spread questions and exam + practice questions + any past papers there are available. One thing I did for the Jan Newtonian World paper which I'd never done before was right up some notes on really important parts of the course which I didn't normally remember. It looked like it worked so I'm now trying it with all of my other subjects xD .

tl;dr - there's actually no point to this post.
