A level politics

Hi does anyone have any tips or resources for a level politics, I'm in year 12 and I'm so behind, nothing makes sense in class and l'm cooked differently and we've somehow finished component 1 and 2

i do edexcel a level in y13. im predicted an a. i would suggest that you make sure you understand what topics are on the spec and structure you revision into subtopics which will allow you to recognise what the question is actually asking. also, make sure you gradulay increase your examples and knowledge of events- you could just strta by reading the new or something, as this is where the top levels are.. also you still have loads of time.. good luck

I'm in year 13, I know a lot of content is thrown at you dw you'll get there x
Whenever there is a topic I dont understand I like to use Seneca (basic recap) study rocket and then I watch Politics Explained vids on youtube. They are so helpful, in depth and they also have free essay plans on their website. Politics explained also has vids on how to structure essays and how to revise politics which will definitely help. If you search a-level politics you should get recap videos and the government should also have ones on the structure of the house of lords, how legislation is passed etc. I hope this helps a little :smile:
