How to go from C to A* in Physics?

I do OCR A Physics and got a C in AS. I'm doing A2 now and I'm considering resitting both exams.

How can I achieve a high grade when I'm focused on A? And when should I start revising for AS and A2?

A* will be a tough ask. But is it possible?

What the guy above me said.
Physicsmathstutor is really useful in resources. Do all physics questions.

Pretty sure she's a girl...

She commented at the same time as me.

Hello,
I've also done the OCR Physics A board this year and I was able to get an A at AS level.
If you did the exam this year in 2015, I can understand why you may have performed poorly. The exams were absolute rubbish and bore no resemblance to the textbooks.

Some general tips would be:
-Learn the definitions, available with a quick google search. These are key. Get a friend or family member to test you on them, every day, for months.
-Past papers. Seriously. Do all of them, then do half of those again.
-Don't just rely on the OCR Heinemann A book with their "exam cafe" at the end.
-Preferably have done some maths Mechanics.

I would retake, I am afraid I can't comment on how to help with this other than that I'd ensure you get a decent mark in the A2!

Thanks for the reply and congrats for getting an A in Physics. Last year, I learnt all the definitions and not many came up on the Mechanics paper. I did all the past papers once. I realised a trend that most papers have the same style of questions. But the 2015 paper was very different as there were more wordy questions and less maths based questions.

I felt I could have done so much better on both papers as I expected an A, but the Mechanics paper took me by surprise.
