I'm in year 11 and havn't taken exams yet, but my friend got all 9s and she said making flashcards is really good because writing the info down helps you memorise it and then doing active recall with them once you've finished. She also said recording yourself reading the flash cards, leaving a space between the title and the info to guess, is great for when you're on the go and on the way to exams and etc. Also mocks are good because she says they basically repeat the same type of questions so then you know what the exam boards are looking for. Hope this helps :smile:

She said memorise the equations and the key info and the same with the mocks. She really said make sure to do mocks because you learn what you really need to work on and what the examiners are looking for and you get a feel for the exams. :smile:
