Hi everyone,
I'm really bad at chemistry and I don't know how to revise for it. I got an A in GCSE then did bad in AS. Any revision tips? I find the old spec exams much easier than the new spec exams. I've never sat such a terrible exam! Do you know any good video tutorials for the topics? Any advice would be much appreciated since I need a good chemistry grade to get into the course I want.

Also, make sure you understand the basics before you progress to harder things.

Do LOADS of practice papers before the exam, you wlll eventually get used to the types of questions you get asked.

I mean, all you really need is the CGP TEXTBOOK (NOT REVISION GUIDE) for your exam board and a heap tonne of past papers. Use past papers from AQA, OCR, Edexcel and WJEC as they're all identical. If you do that well, you should get an A. A* is a bit hit or miss, as with all subjects, so if you don't get it, don't be disheartened.

do you just print the notes or make your own notes using them?
