Same with me tbh

I only started AS Maths in January as I dropped another subject for it

I was doing 3 hours consistently since the Mid of january until about last week and 8 hours minimum every weekend to get caught up.

I think I have caught up now tbh

It's just a matter of doing a past paper a night for me now:biggrin:


Yea by the sounds of it you will be fine maths is all about practise, and to be fair doing maths past papers is quite enjoyable not as bad as some other like Physics or Chem........

Oh my god! Someone else on TSR that does human biology! :eek:
I only had one January exam which was human biology unit 4, are you doing AS or A2?

I should have 6 including 3 speaking exams I missed Spanish AS speaking due to illness last year :frown:. No resits though, I might retake my German AS writing paper from last year even though I got an A just to boost my UMS by a few marks. Every little helps!

If you ever need help with it you can PM me :smile: there doesn't seem to be anyone else on here that does human biology :frown:
Once you get closer to exams, do all the past papers and keep doing them over and over again - pretty much memorise all the answers. They pretty much use the same questions or thereabouts over and over again just worded slightly differently. :smile:

Thank goodness for no resits and not taking Maths!
5 exams, including 2 resits.

Geography 3
Economics 4
Business 4
Retaking Economics 2 and Business 3
5 and no resits but the thought of the number of exams for next summer makes me :facepalm:
2x politics
2x economics (one resit)
2x ancient history
1x maths(resit)

I make that seven exams altogether

and on two of those days I'll have two exams...darn! :s-smilie:
7 exams
Biology and chemistry unit 1,4,5
History

Also I want an A in chemistry and so I'm practically retaking the whole chemistry alevel apart from unit 2 which I got a B. Is it possible to get an A without resitting unit 2?
