yes, yes, yes.

Past paper practice is key. DO them with mark scheme alongside
If you are talking about from B to A. Yeah its possible but from C to A forget it.

Teacher for 23 years here. It's hard but I've seen it done countless times. Seen a kid go from D to A from mocks to real exam. If you want it hard enough & Follow the advice of your teachers and people you trust to be authoritative it can be done. Exam technique is critical. I would also use flashcards - make them yourself. Revise it bursts of 50 mins at a time.

I'm talking about GCSE lol I raised my grades by at least 1 in every subject.
Dude stop. OP cant go from D/C to A in 2 months. Impossible.

probably not from D/C to A, but from B to A sounds more realistic.

Why are you being so negative? It's not impossible. I did it myself and I'm sure many other people did it as well. As long as you're focused and know your weak points, you can build yourself up from there. Don't know what your problem is, don't bring people down lol.
What on earth? Loool

Of course you can do it. 2 months is plenty of time. You could read the whole book and make notes in 2-3 weeks.

Do that, then do past papers on weekends.

An A is not hard, it's merely going over it/rewriting it to ingrain things into memory or practice of theories (e.g. maths until it is natural and easy to spot).

Was that just hyper ultra optimism or do you know someone who's literaly done this somehow?

I know a guy that literally revised Biology the night (All nighter) before and got an A. He bunked like the first few months of college as well. His attendance was terrible.
Absolutely ! Make a revision plan and start tomorrow, stick to it, give generous breaks/free time and don't be unrealistic in the amount of work you can get done each day (this was my problem at first). It won't be fun but it'll be worth it, just think.. You can either work your ass off just now or you'll find yourself working for the guy who did.

That's not true. I know people who went from Ds to A* in three months across their subjects.

I always did the one day thing. Never crossed 50% mark.

Exactly. 2 months is just a short period of time. Thats like doing 4 subjects, 1 in 7 days. Is it possible to effectively revise one subject in seven days ? Yeah maybe suren if you are already a B student. But a C/D student no ****ing way.
