Is UpLearn worth it for A-Level Maths and/or Physics?

I am looking to get a scholarship for this website and heard their guarantee for A* and A grades

I would like to know mainly if anyone has used their service for Physics and how it is and if they received an A* grade

For context I am about to start Year 12

Thanks

Hey,

I can't answer your question regarding if UpLearn is useful for physics or maths because I took neither at A-level BUT I did take economics and bought UpLearn around 6 weeks before my end of year 12 exams. I went from a U to a B in the space of 6 weeks just from using UpLearn and 2 days ago found out that I got an A in economics all thanks to UpLearn.

I would really recommend it (speaking as an economics student).

People are singing praises for their Econ service but I've heard maths isn't as useful. Thanks very much for sharing your experience :smile:

Hi! I also have an UpLearn account for physics and maths. The videos are 100% useful but there are so many it can be time-consuming. I suggest only using it for topics which you find extremely difficult.

Hi! Does Uplearn give access to all subjects you want when you pay for the course or is it just one course and you have to pay for another subject? If so is it the same price as the first course? I want to do Chem and Physics and wondering about the pricing.

Physics and Maths Tutor is brilliant for notes and flashcards on the topics, as well as providing topic based questions. I'm currently sitting A-level physics and further maths and haven't needed to use a service other than theirs as everything is readily available.

I've heard UpLearn is very good and worth it for sciences yeh! For humanities like english, econ, history, .. Tilf is the best. If you need something free for sciences, Cognito is great too!

Hi I got the scholarship as well. Maths edexcel good. OCR A physics is the worst they rushed it. AQA physics good, I recommend starting the course earlier gives you a head start.

Hi Nadia may I ask why you thought they rushed it for Physics OCR A because I recently just bought it and a bit worried because it was quite pricy 😭
