hi, i'd like to know any revision strategeies you used for the sciences plz?

i just revised straight from the specification! it’s super detailed if you do AQA sciences like i did, so it’s all you need to revise from! and make sure to do all the past papers available, and make notes on any questions you can’t answer.

Hey! So what jobs would you like to do with the A levels you chose?
What uni do you wanna go to?
I want to do Maths, Biology and English language and literature. What advice do you have for people that feel they are limiting their options by not going into one specific route? Could there be negative affects at places like Cambridge university?

hiya! i’m thinking of doing an engineering degree at university right now! you should definitely do maths and english lit; they’re great! i’ve heard biology is a lot of hard work. i think that whatever you do at A level there should be loads of career options for you, so just make sure you do something you enjoy and could imagine yourself doing everyday! and i think the pressure at cambridge seems quite intense as you’re not even allowed a part time job! i went there with school and the workload seemed massive.
