Edexcel GCSE CORE SCIENCE Exams in MAY

A place to help each other, learn and benefit from everyone's contribution as well as the revision advice. Lets all try our best for these exams and support each other during the process.

I found recording myself saying the content and listening back to it when I'm travelling really helped me

I made sure I knew all the content before I attempted any past paper questions

Use keywords in your answers, that's what gets you the mark

Do a good amount of past papers, if you complete them all attempt the IGCSE ones

Definitely mark every paper you do, if you are struggling to mark it ask your teacher to do it for you

See where you have gone wrong and look to improve on the section for the next paper you do

Try teaching someone a section you're not confident on
