Physics and math alevel

Everyone says maths and physics a level is super hard, so I don't know if I will be able to get good grades and if I should change my alevels before it's too late. In my gcses, I got a 6 in physics and a 7 in maths (which was really weird). With these grades although I am past the boundary of grades I feel that I might struggle and I dont know if I should take them and if so is there any tips to make sure I don't fall behind all the smart people.

Hey, I'm going into university to study pharmacy and I studied alevel physics so I can only talk about that . My tip is don't do physics alevel unless you do alevel maths or further maths thats how you wont fall behind. I cant say this nicely but it is very difficult. Also make sure you like the subject because if you like it, the more you will want to study it and the better grades you will get. Use youtube videos and textbooks and LOADS OF PAST PAPERS. start doing then around December of year 12

Hi, I would say that these subjects are just as demanding as any other, and the only indicator of whether or not you'll truly be able to succeed is whether you enjoy the subjects or not. A couple of people in my physics class only took the subject as they didn't know what else to put and ended up switching to a different subject within the first couple of weeks - although the content we were learning was nowhere near as difficult as what we'd encounter in A2 physics, they realised pretty early on that they lacked the motivation they needed to keep them going for two years. A massive tip is to focus on yourself and yourself only. There will be people who seem to revise day and night all year round and there will be people flaunting their test scores, but as long as you are doing what you need to be doing, you'll be fine, and you may even find that A Level physics isn't as hard as people make it out to be!
Subject-specific advice - do plenty of questions, as this will get you familiar with the exam technique and help you master definitions for physics. For maths, try and find difficult questions once you've got a solid understanding of the basics, but make sure you have understood the basics first or there's no point.
Good luck!

Hi, thanks for replying. I dont know if I will lack motivation later on but I do enjoy learning physics and I just want to be able to continue to learn it and not have to drop it. But I just dont know if I will be smart enough to be able to continue to do the subject(especially since many people seem to be a lot smarter, and i only got 6 the borderline grade). Although I hope that if I continue to revise and try hard that i wont have to. Thank you for the advice and tips. I will defiently do them

Don't worry - something a couple of unfortunate kids learn the hard way is that, at A Level, smartness will only get you so far. It's only the hard-working that truly succeed.
Good luck!
