When to start revising for AS level exams in May?

I wish I had your dedication in sixth form, I do like 2 hours a day at uni :/

Heh but do remember, with this amount of time dedicated to studying I do lose out on some aspects of student life (not that sixth form student life is that significant) but its like you have 3 choices with alevels and degrees; social life and good grades, good grades and sleep or sleep + social life etcetc. I literally have no social life apart from at lunch time and breaktime :P So there are sacrifices but its worth it in the end imho

Oh I'm doing AQA USA 1890-1945 and AQA French Renaissance

when did u start at a level?

what uni are you aiming for?

Aha your USA history ends just around the time mine starts USA-1840-1868 (all the civil rights campaigns etc) and ooh French Renaissance sounds interesting personally I hate USA, so boring!

I'm aiming mainly for Cambridge, but I would love to go Bristol or Warwick as other options, for Maths that is :P I didn't give two ****s at gcse but alevels are so much more interesting and rewarding

I'm doing A2s, but I'm bored so I'm replying to this anyway. At the start of the Easter holidays is when I always start. I haven't got any resits to do either, which is a bonus.

I am aiming for UEA and Kent. I need to revise, but not as rigorous as you. You need A*AA, I need AAB-ABB. I am going to start revising tomorrow but not full on until Easter holidays!

Sounds like a good plan! and yeah I don't know what happened in January I was getting A's before the exams and that only correlated into c1 maths... anyway nice Uni choice and course aha, I could not put up with more modern history so I commend you for taking it at uni (dropping history this year, I hate the randomness of the exam questions on the exam day soo much)

did u start then at AS?

Yup.

Um, I was planning to start at Easter... this thread had concerned me a bit

A month before is a good rule of thumb, but if you want to start earlier then go for it.

Just don't burnout before your exams.

What are your plans post-university?

I love history. However, I am not as good at French Ren. as I am at USA :P I am top of my politics class, average in my other lessons Top in USA class, above average in French Ren.

I revised the night before my politics mock and got an A. Doesn't that suggest revising early isn't necessarily beneficial?

Ok, thanks!

what grades did you get?
