I seem to have took the same subjects as you. Did my GCSE'S this year, pending results next thursday but was/am a grade 7-9 student.
I had the same idea in my head I
will do this. this is my plan etc. Didn't happen.
The moment you tell yourself you actually have to do it, you find distractions, it doesn't go as well you thought. This is different for some people but the general consensus is it's harder to actually do what you're telling yourself to. So since i've gone through the process I'm gonna give you some tips (cause im nice like that uwu
)
Ok so first of all, what i'm about to tell you is just general facts, some of it *may* scare you, some of it will relieve you. Regardless it's gonna help in the long run.
First of all your mindset of planning out how long you're gonna do each subject for and when for long term is good! But from the looks of what you've told yourself you're going to do, it seems like you may not have thoroughly been told revision strategies yet.. which is understandable since you've technically never sat a class in year 11 yet.
-Your exams are less than a year away
-You only need a 4. Your school WILL tell you, you need 5's and 6's. Unless you want A-levels in them, employers AND universities only want that bog standard pass and usually only for english language and maths.
-Most of your peers will not revise. If people revise, it'll likely be cramming the night before and in the upcoming week, majority of people WILL procrastinate for the next 8 months or so.
-Your exams WILL be one of the hardest series yet. But the most balanced. 2017 series was a mess, first time with 1-9 system. 2018 was hard as nails. 2019... we got it lucky. tests were easy. BUT the grade boundaries are gonna be high for us. The exam boards now have a clear idea of the level of difficulty they want to achieve with the tests and the grade boundaries meaning you're gonna have it tough... but fair, not easy/hard and unfair.
Maths:
That textbook isn't gonna be something you want for months. 3-4 pages a night? Eh you could get the book complete in 2 months. The book is pretty useless to, atleast it was fore me. It gives you a basic explanation but usually the
harder versions of the questions are not present. It leads you into a false sense of security that you know the topic inside and out, but in reality if it appears at the back end of the paper, the book won't have taught you how to tackle it. It teaches you the bog-standard principle and the basic problem solving. Some entire topics are forced into a small box in the corner of the page like elevations. So not ideal. Also the strategies and step by step explanations could be different to your school leading to unnecessary confusion. It's good for a few basic practice questions as well, BUT the answers do not come with explanation, so if you cant understand where the answer comes from you'll be boggled for eternity. Furthermore the practice questions are limited, the question work book and answer book are two separate paid guides to the revision book so that's a fair bit of dosh to spend.
I recommend a few sites. Mathsbot. Corbett maths and mathsgenie. Helped me a lot. Corbett maths has EVERY known topic and videos ranging from one minute to 10 minutes with practice examples and explanations. They're quick and simple but VERY effective, and you can get lots covered. It also has tons of practice questions with answers, both of which easy to find and acessible. Mathsbot gives you randomly generated potential exam questions and you can filter the searches to give you specific topics, or topics from a certain grade boundary, also a countdown to exams and past boundaries. Mathsgenie has a ton of prediction papers from last year, this year, and years dating back to early 2000's... very ancient, very effective, very good practice. You'll get your own set of prediction papers early may 2020.
Computer science:
Honestly you have that cracked down. Computer science is about definitions and explanations. Never much more too it... well in component one. Paper 2, the programming is UNPREDICTABLE. Computer science programming was a breeze this year, it'll be walking on legos for you likely then. Programming, some people have a born talent for it, most do not. Programmings strength does NOT come from posters or information. It comes from practicality. Assuming this is OCR, which most people do OCR LOVE to throw themselves into scenarios "OCR SHOPS" "OCR LAND" "OCR CARS" ect. ect. they will find ANY scenario from ANYTHING and give you a scenario you've never seen before. You cannot revise for that question specifically like you can paper 1 where the content is facts and explanations. You'll need to train your brain for computational thinking, to extract information and use your programming knowledge to apply what you know to the situation. Everything you need to answer any scenario with an algorithm will have been taught to you so EVERY question is accessible.
You say you got a 9 though, me too. For mocks atleast, results pending. So i dont think you're exactly struggling with programming lolol but it's always good to be practical with programming since anything can and often will come up. Nothing would've prepared me specifically for "ocr theme parks" and "ocr football club" in this years papers, my saving grace is that i trained my mind to program. Python (which is assume is what you're doing since thats the general GCSE especially for OCR code) is free to download anyway, or atleast python IDE'S online. If not, im sure the same applies to C* or whatever other program you use. Tons of scenarios and code examples online. Just remember you dont have the internet to steal code from in an exam like you can in class, dont get accustomed to searching up snippets of code for help.
But like you say, you got a 9. which is dope mate.
The sciences:
BIO: Biology is facts and explanations. But there's a lot of them. Read the revision guides, make flashcards especially for this and answer LOTS of exam questions. You'll find a lot of biology exam questions follow a formula and due to being facts and explanations and suggestions and reasoning, the answers are never too different. it's learn and refresh all the way
Chemistry: Same as biology with a bit more practicality and maths
PHYSICS: KNOW THE EQUATIONS. Don't leave it too late, write them all down, recite them, get them stuck in your brain. The physics equations are the ones people ALWAYS sleep on and leave it until last minute because "they're hard to remember" BUT THEN U DO IT, AND ACTUALLY ITS NOT HARD, YOU JUST LEFT IT TOO LATE. Learn the equations early, they are so much easier than you think and the only maths you'll have to do. It's basic substitution and rearrangement into an equation, once you know it and practice it, it's cracked. then the rest is same as bio and chem, learn and reason boi.
English: Hardest to revise for without doubt. You just gotta focus on the important stuff. In literature characters, themes, locations. That's what's gonna appear in the questions. Have em hammered down, read the texts every few months again so u have the entire plot drilled into your mind. Language, i have found. WEIRD SUGGESTION I KNOW. Online roleplay in your favourite fandoms etc. is incredibly effective. It forces you to learn new vocabulary, it focuses on you to create and describe vivid locations and scenarios and it forces you to learn how to write compelling scenarios. It's fun, it's easy, it's a hobby and strengthens english ability!!
Hope this somehow helped further you!
Good luck next year with your exams. TRUST ME. IT'S NOT AS SCARY AS IT SEEMS
also a very general tip but
please
dear god please
value your time in year 11, don't say you wanna quit school, don't "look forward to the end". Because i really do promise you, when you actually get to the end. You will miss it so much. Haven't started sixth form yet but I miss high school, i miss the people, i miss regular class. these subjects like maths and physics i may not have liked much at the time but id love to go back and do it again. Value your time while you have it, don't let stress and pressure ruin this year cause year 11 you will make sacred bonds with not just friends but you'll see a focused and caring side to your teachers aswell.
