Is it possible to learn gcse Maths and Physics from SCRATCH in 5 months?

Or is better to only focus on one? Im hoping to take the exams in november.

I am a mature student who is re-learning maths and physics.

Is it possible to learn both in only 5 months? Or is it better to focus on one subject first then study for the other one 6 months later etc?

How much time per day are you willing to put into the subjects? Do you think you'd be able to get a tutor? It's definitely possible but would require quite a lot of time and dedication. It really depends on why you would want to sit them early and if you'd be prepared to commit to that!

i think it is quite possible because i learnt them in 2 months but i guess it just depends on how fast you learn stuff and you have to stay consistent

How much time per day do you think is required? Bear in mind im learning them both from scratch. I only work part time so i have like 5 hours during the day to study, and then obviously a few more hours in the evening after work.

I don't think that amount is required. I did both in class at about 10 hours a month of lessons or both for around 16-18 months. I think doing 1-2 hours a day of both is definitely more than enough as you wouldn't want to burn out either. It really comes down to how quickly you can pick up the subjects. Spend a few weeks at 1 hour a day for both and if you feel like you're lagging behind where you should be up the amount of time you're spending.
