OCR A 2016 Chemistry A* A-Level Resources

Hi I am ForgottenApple, I recently finished A Levels with results: (A*A*A* Maths, Physics & Chemistry). This thread is to help you achieve a similar set of results. I created these resources for myself in my A-Level year and have brought them up into a good enough order to help other people out. This thread is a chemistry counterpart to a new thread I've made this year for Chemistry and incorporates all but the practical element of the OCR Chemistry A Level course (to be revised in 2015) but nonetheless there is a full year of students who can benefit from these resources and any students who opt to resit thereafter.

Most notes I wrote last year, as well as the standard answers being made by me (idea from my college), definitions lists, legacy resources/past papers/bonus questions tend to be lifted :P

Link to physics thread
Unlike the physics thread
I'm going to sort of build this as I go so it may not be complete for a month-ish

Important Links
Physics and maths tutor: Includes extra past papers from other exam boards, and the extremely useful questions by topic
A Level Chemistry Website, mostly older spec past papers, and questions with solutions!
Memrise - Excellent for rote learning definitions, equations and reactions (Good iOS and Android App!)

ah organic chemistry, I decided to go with a unique 'on a page' model for this unit, inspired by maths which condensed units down to a single page. I'm going to release a PDF version of this, so you can print out pages as required

Hello I am ForgottenApple, I recently finish A Levels with some reasonable results (A*A*A* Maths, Physics & Chemistry). This thread is to help you achieve something similar at the same level. I created these resources for myself last year and have brought them up into a good enough order to help other people out. This thread is a chemistry counterpart to a new thread I've made this year for Chemistry and incorperates all but the practical element of the OCR Chemistry A Level course (to be revised in 2015) but nonetheless there is a full year of students who can benefit from these resources and any students who opt to resit thereafter.

Not sure, check physicsmathstutor posted above. If in doubt use mine/notes on there and seek out relevant topics.

Yes pretty reasonable if I do say so myself. Applied Cam, Manc, bath, leeds, birminham. Went Manc.

It was 80% average between the two and 90% in your A2 when I did. n
Thank you so much!
Aiming for the A* this year
Added my F324 'on a page' series!! If you notice any errors (there are a couple, but have been fixed where possible) notify me and I will amend them.

Use chemrevise, he has pdf revision guides for each of our topics.
F324/5 Definitions have been uploaded on Memrise, an interactive website I used to learn definitions, join, complete the course and you'll 100% the definitions. Sorry I didn't have a word document it's disappeared 0.o I've also added reactions and conditions for Memrise, it's a bit buggy (duplicate answers) but very useful.
