aqa for bio,chem and edexcel for maths

I do OCR for chem and bio so I can't really help. I do edexcel for maths, the mark scheme is a complete mess not gonna lie. I find the walk through videos on pmt website helpful tho, I'm not sure if you have used them before. Sorry for not helping much.

I used the Edexcel textbook for maths. For AQA bio and chem, watch videos (there's some really good channels that condense down topics) and annotate the exam board specifications. For exam technique, get used to the different wording of questions. For similar questions you tend to get wrong a lot, keep a log of them and focus on improving those areas.

^bear in mind I sat my A-levels a couple of years ago now, but this should still apply

hi! I don’t do maths but i’m in y13 doing aqa bio and chem. i use lots of YT vids as they help me, so i recommend miss estruch for biology and allery chemistry or eliot rintoul (idk how u spell his name) for chem. only thing i can say is a levels, esp these ones, are a huge learning curve and it just takes time to see results - keep trying and trust the process😊
