Hi- I have already done 2 A-levels, both were language speaking exams and I did them at the end of April/beginning of May. In terms of the advanced info, it was very accurate.

i agree ive done an exam already, and was comparing right now to advanced info, and nearly everything they gave came up with no other major topics

What subject was that, if you don't mind sharing? How many questions were outside of the advanced information?

economics,
there was like mcqs for 1 mark, maybe not listed on advance info, but every essay question was literally the heading given in advance info.
e.g. we had 15 marker on specialisation, which was listed on advance info

That's really good to know. Hoping the same will be true for AQA physics. :smile:

Pretty well, I think. The first exam seems really close now though. How about you?
Probably the hardest thing for me is memorizing equations and values. I'm super glad that particles will be the topic with the most marks on paper 1 since that's my strongest topic.

Finally someone who agrees with me, i know people who are saying that they wish waves was in instead of particles. Although i do wish it was electricity that was removed.

Particles are much better than waves. :biggrin: I know what you mean about electricity. I wish periodic motion were removed instead of waves, personally. Maybe electricity...

Periodic motion is my favorite part of paper 1:colonhash:

I just think it's cool, it's probably because it requires more maths than most topics and slightly less explanation.

DONT trust aqa!!!
omg even how their advance info was, it was just headings of topics (i did chem), so it would just say bonding for example
there was no inorganic on advance info and it came up sooo much, literally about 18 marks of inorganic!
the papers out of 80, and 18 is a lot of marks for a topic not to be on advance info.
im so annoyedd
