I think if you quickly go over your revision guide for topics like waves and electricity you'll be fine. These are the main ones you need to know for AS and forces will be covered in detail in class, I think. I checked my textbook and the forces topics at Alevel are just a recap from GCSE plus a bit more stuff so you'll be fine. :smile:
(obvs I haven't started sixth form yet but I hope it helps)

😂I have forgotten everything from my GCSE’s so I’m hoping I should be okay with very little knowledge.

aha ok good luck!


Thank you and you too.
Most teachers will ease you in quite nicely, so don't worry too much. Or, well, don't stress yourself out revising a tonne of GCSE stuff, because most teachers expect yr12s to have forgotten a fair bit over the summer. You're better off being well-rested, coherent and engaged. Good luck!

thanks for ur reply
Honestly don’t even worry. You clearly did well enough to do the GCSE. Teachers won’t be expecting you to know everything, and I certainly wasn’t 100% solid on my GCSE content before a levels (I’m not doing sciences though).
