It's not too late!

You still got about 11 weeks. You will smash it. :h:

Here's my tips for History:

•

Summarise the content of each module on one sheet of paper and memorise this

•

Condense events into 3 bullet points [Linking with the point above]

•

Make a list of significant events and their dates and highlight each one you manage to remember

•

Do every single past paper question

•

Plan your essays with bullet points within a minute

•

Time yourself when doing essays

•

Practice writing really fast

Feel free to PM me, if you could tell me what exams you're doing I could possibly help you more. :h:

Yep

okay... so i think you aren't in a bad state
you pretty much retaking the same subjects that you are doing in A2 so you still have to go through the AS stuff when you are going to sit final exam AS and A2 if you are doing 2 yr course...
just keep revising and make a timetable and stick to it :h:
