Yes would it help me to get an A* though????
Hey what kind of learner are you? Aural, visual, kinaesthetic etc. Try tailoring your revision to your learning style and repeat things that have helped before. The holy grail of all revision is past papers (even though sometimes they are a drag!) so try to KNOW the questions BEFORE you sit the exam.

Good luck and I hope you do well :smile: I have faith in you!

P.S. I do AS maths so if you need any help/questions answered w/ workings feel free to PM me!

They both have many hundreds of clips and examples for your specification, so if you do go through all of them, then it is very highly likely. I don't think you can access them easily, your school should have log in details for one of these

if it makes you feel any better, i was never taught out of the book, never even touched it, only through past papers and my whole class got A* and A's.

WOWW that hit me hard...thanks
No I didn't mean to stress you more! I just meant you don't have to stress about doing the whole book you can ace the exam otherwise, sorry if I stressed you! I didn't mean to :frown: I found that by doing past papers the questions become very familiar and familiar in the way the question is written

oh phew i thought i made it worse then! yeah just do past papers and time yourself too and you'll find yourself doing them quicker and thinking "i swear i just did this question" because they all look the same. I think i did every past paper from 2005 to 2012 and there were definitely some repeats. If you ever need any help just drop me a message :smile:
