I am doing the New specification of Edexcel... Ive finished all of the AS stuff... now going over the A2 stuff tbh... do you wanna be partners or anything? But I think CIE is more challenging so I am shifting to that soon..

what A levels did you take before? which uni are you off to? what do you want to do at Uni?

I took Maths, Physics and Economics... I did CIE

I need AAB to study Physics at Kings
Sounds like you've made alot of progress, well done!
And I took Maths, Physics and Chemistry via Edexcel and AQA respectively. Need AAA for Economics at St Andrews.

Aaahh thats cool!

Which modules are you taking for those subjects?

I am planning on taking Mechanics and I am undecided on Stats or Further Pure so I am just focusing on the core Pure and Mechanics stuff tbh

in the CIE syllabus its a lot lot simpler... but the content is stuff that comes up for Physics degrees and is more degree oriented... so I am going to do that... Do you have pdfs for textbooks ?

I've been doing AQA spec further maths since the start of lockdown. What resources and materials do you plan to use/ are all ready using?

Im using the revisions guide from Edexcel and pdfs of CIE A level further maths books (2 modules)

I mostly use pdf Edexcel textbooks online. However, I also use old spec textbooks that I borrowed from my school library - which explain the theory behind the maths really well, instead of just doing maths for maths sake:smile:

aahhh I see... mind sharing the links of those pdfs or something?

Here are the links of the books I use

file:///C:/Users/email/OneDrive/Desktop/other%20studies/CIE/Maths/Alevel%20Mechanics.pdf

And then the Edexcel Further Maths online copy which I have
No thanks- the reminder of A level Maths is enough to put me off, never mind further maths.

What did you get in A level Maths lol?

Grade B.

That was a miracle in itself. Hence my terror at the thought of further maths. As I went to uni as a mature student, it was a while ago.

Sure, the link below should have like every Edexcel textbook for core and further maths (old spec and new spec).
