My teacher thinks that for psychology a 20 marker on goal setting could be asked as it hasn't before.

For history other people predict that athletics may be asked

Hi, I'm doing the same topics as well. Also random question but does anybody know if it's actually possible to get an a* at a level, because on the grade boundaries it actually only goes up to an a

Don't think you can access an A* at A2.
I know I sound desperate, but any tips for last minute revision tonight? Anything that would help me please. Have you got any predictions for 20 markers tomorrow?

aha i suggest to go through as much of the content as you can. also a good tip is to go through the mark schemes because it simply bullet points what you need to actually put. also it shows you exactly what the examiner is looking for. I'm not really sure about 20 marker predictions to be honest but according to mypeexam.com there are a few hot topics so make sure to revise them tonight. For historical it will probably be Athletics case study and the national curriculum. Physiology is fitness training programmes and recovery. psychology is attribution and leadership.
But just an FYI that's not for certain, it's just a prediction
An A* is 85 out of 105 on the paper and making sure you got an A at AS and your practical is and A. Its like 180 UMS out of 200. But definitely need 85/105 at A2.

No probs man hope it goes well. Also when answering the short answer questions try to think of as many points as there is marks. Also if you have time I sometimes put like loads more points just in case like one of them doesn't count or isn't on the mark scheme, hopefully that will ensure that you get the majority of marks

Attribution theory by Werner the reasons given by a coach for success and failure and also for recovery it might be lacacid or a lactacid
