Literally do as many past papers as you can, they literally just repeat questions from previous years ( With different numbers ) you can easily get to an A by just doing past papers, I've done about 20 at school

It's so easy tbh, that you make lots of silly mistakes - I'm actually worried I'll become complacent and just rush through it in half an hour and not get an A* :frown:
Admaths is easier in that way :tongue:


I know right! I always make silly mistakes and I keep thinking "don't have time" but always finish early,
You get some good questions towards the end occasionally just like "Put ... In standard form" and sometimes you don't need to work it out because your calculator can do it for you :biggrin:

I'm thinking I'm going to do the paper from the end to the beginning :?
