Hi,
I'm planning to do chemistry, biology and psychology in A levels but I wasn't happy with grades I got for biology and maths (at least a 6 is needed in maths). I'm planning to resit both, should I take a year off of college?

For example -
practical questions - remembers the controls and the equipment
6 markers - remember to include everything in an appropriate readable manner, with lots of detail.
English - learn lots of quotes for literature, and always relate back to the question. Find some top grade context to include in your writing. The more intelligent you sound, the better! For language, focus on the question types and what you should include in each question. Go through examiners feedback from the past to see what students usually miss out, as well as the mark scheme.
I didn’t do French, but I did do Spanish. For speaking, learn star phrases and sentences, which are complex, so you can just drop them here and there. Learn your vocabulary.
History - this was my most hated subject, but still came out with a 9! Learn the content, but because there is a lot try to focus it on the questions. For example for one of my papers I knew the questions will only most likely be a “how significant” or “explain” question so I revised how each event was significant in particular. Don’t think you have to learn every little piece of detail, but do try to have a general knowledge of the whole course. Don’t forget your dates!

For Sciences - honestly I learnt the CGP guides off by heart and I remembered my exam techniques.
