Helpppp💔 grade 9 students pleasee
okay so basically i want to aim for all 9s in my gcses but sadly my school is on a massive teacher lack but alongside tutoring i'd love to have other students who have taken or are at a grade 9 standard already. The main subjects i really need to up my game in are english literature and history as i want to take them for A Level. The reason why i would like to achieve all 9s is because id really like to study Law at cambridge one day and i know Cambridge look at GCSE grades
My subjects are as followed:
AQA English Literature (Macbeth, A christmas carol, An inspector calls, Power and conflict anthology (PLS HELP W THAT ONE))
AQA English Language
Edexcel Maths Higher
AQA combined science higher trilogy (this is my weakest subject in my last mocks especially biology)
Edexcel History (Crime and Punishment, Early Elizabeth, Weimar Germany and Cold War and superpower relations)
Edexcel French Higher
AQA Religious Studies A (Christianity, Islam, Themes A B D E)
Please guys i'm not trying to be ungrateful at all I am really happy as i am fluctuating between 7s and 8s at the minute but i want to ensure for my real thing i get 9s i'll appreciate any help or any tips i get given thank you so much.

Maths:
Do as much practice as you can. There are 3 reasons for this which i focus on. Firstly, doing practice questions means thatyoure continually exercising the parts of your brain which are needed to do maths so the more you practice the more naturally itwill come to you. Doing exam style questions also means that you’ll get used to the types of questions that you’ll be asked- tobe honest they dont tend to vary too much year on year so practicing old questions really helps. Thirdly, doing practicequestions means you’ll identify what you’re struggling with.
There’s loads of sites you can use to get questions on specific topics or find practice papers. If you have access to sites likeMathswatch or DrFrost those are helpful. Cognito has questions and videos which i would recommend. Corbett maths 5-a-dayis exceptionally useful.
Once you’ve done practice questions, you can then find what you’re struggling with struggled on and recap it. Watching a videois the way i find the best to do this- videos are especially helpful if they have example questions which you can work throughand then see how the teacher would do them. CorbettMaths, Cognito and GCSEMathsTutor are the channels id suggest youtake a look at.
Once youre confident on understanding a topic then you’ll need to do lots more practice questions to get used to what you’ll beasked in exams. CorbettMaths has loads of banks of practice questions on particular topics which are very helpful.
Science:
With science, a lot of the content is quite memory based so make sure you’re continually reviewing topics. One way of doingthis is sites like Tassomai and StudySmarter which use spaced repetition questioning. Or you could blurt on a few topics eachweek and see what youre forgetting. Like with maths, doing practice questions often will mean you know what you need tofocus on.
Once youre aware of a weaker area, watch a video and try your recall task again. I found for science that anything visual reallyengaged me- use some coloured pens, modelling clay, a whiteboard… anything that will make you think about what you’relearning a bit more.
The question types are really important so doing exam style questions is a must. Application of knowledge isvery important so practicing applying your knowledge is really useful- often it could be applying your knowledge to practicalskills so make sure you have a generally good knowledge of practicals too. 15% of your exams will be on working scientificallyso revising this is essential. FreeScienceLessons have a good playlist on that content and then you’ll need to review requiredpractical methods (check out the videos by Malmesbury science and ScienceShorts for this).
There’s also going to be plenty of calculation questions in science, in some parts of chem and across physics especially. This isagain practice, IsaacPhysics is a fantastic resource for this.
English language:
Having a clear paragraph structure for each question is super important. I used PEAR paragraphs pretty consistently acrossmost questions because they allowed me to get lots of marks pretty consistently. PEAR stands for Point (literally answering thequestion, a topic sentence) Evidence (pick a quote) Analysis (any language and/or structural techniques, depending on whatthe question asks you to comment on) Reader (link your quote to how the reader will likely feel- its doesn’t have to be deep butusing fancyish words like anticipation can make your writing sound less surface level).
Across both English subjects, doing questions and getting feedback from a teacher is the most helpful thing to know how toimprove. If your teacher wont mark your work for whatever reason then you could post in on TSR and ask for someone to markit. I marked lots of answers during year 11 as i found it helpful revision- you could mark other peoples answers to help yourunderstanding of what examiners are looking for. Or if you have a friend in your class who would be willing to swap answersand mark each others that’s also a strong option.
Learning how to annotate texts is extremely important. BBC Bitesize was how i learned how to do this i think but im sure theresloads of videos and articles on how to do this. You need to find a way which works well for you!
For the writing sections, quality over quantity is the key thing you need to focus on. One thing which can help is writing novafiction- stories with only 9 sentences. This forces you to condense your narrative or description. Obviously, in an exam you’llneed to write more than 9 sentences but it’s good practice. Before you start writing, come up with a list of language andstructural features you want to include in your writing and tick them off as you go so you remember to include them throughout.
Come up with a basic story that you can use most of the time and practice applying it to different questions. Quality over quantity is key for creative writing and structure is really important- having a distinct beginning, middle and end of your narrative. Before you start writing note down a list of structural features, language techniques and other stuff you want to include and as you go add stuff in. I found writing nova fiction helpful for revision (stories with only 9 sentences) because you do 3 sentences on the beginning, 3 on the middle and 3 on the end. That way you dont run out of time to do a complete narrative. Writing nova fiction also forces you to use a range of punctuation like semi colons or you simply wouldn’t be able to get everything down into 9 sentences.

Learning good quotations is immensely helpful. There’s loads of good study sets you can use which people have made or you can make your own. Either way, dont just memorise the quotations by themselves- learn the language analysis, how it links to key themes, context and characters and when it is said (this heavily influences how the reader will feel depending on if tension is rising or its a period of calm etc).
Doing lots of essays and having them marked will help you find whereyoure losing marks and then you can work on those key areas. Also reading through model essays and seeing what makes them get the highest marks is a great idea- you could use examiner reports to find common areas where people lose marks.
I used mind mapping a lot for literature so try that if you want to work on your marks. You could mindmap a quotation, a chapter,character, theme, piece of context, poem etc. Make sure that whenever you make a mindmap you include quotations which linkin and lots of details.

I marked lots of answers during year 11 as i found it helpful revision- you could mark other peoples answers to help yourunderstanding of what examiners are looking for. Or if you have a friend in your class who would be willing to swap answersand mark each others that’s also a strong option.
Learning how to annotate texts is extremely important. BBC Bitesize was how i learned how to do this i think but im sure theresloads of videos and articles on how to do this. You need to find a way which works well for you!
For the writing sections, quality over quantity is the key thing you need to focus on. One thing which can help is writing novafiction- stories with only 9 sentences. This forces you to condense your narrative or description. Obviously, in an exam you’llneed to write more than 9 sentences but it’s good practice. Before you start writing, come up with a list of language andstructural features you want to include in your writing and tick them off as you go so you remember to include them throughout.
Come up with a basic story that you can use most of the time and practice applying it to different questions. Quality over quantity is key for creative writing and structure is really important- having a distinct beginning, middle and end of your narrative. Before you start writing note down a list of structural features, language techniques and other stuff you want to include and as you go add stuff in. I found writing nova fiction helpful for revision (stories with only 9 sentences) because you do 3 sentences on the beginning, 3 on the middle and 3 on the end. That way you dont run out of time to do a complete narrative. Writing nova fiction also forces you to use a range of punctuation like semi colons or you simply wouldn’t be able to get everything down into 9 sentences.
English lit:
Using a clear paragraph structure is super important. I used PEAR paragraphs pretty consistently acrossmost questions because they allowed me to get lots of marks pretty consistently. PEAR stands for Point (literally answering thequestion, a topic sentence) Evidence (pick a quote) Analysis (any language structural and/or form features you can comment on) Reader (link your quote to how the reader will likely feel- its doesn’t have to be deep but using fancyish words like anticipation can make your writing sound less surface level).

Learning good quotations is immensely helpful. There’s loads of good study sets you can use which people have made or you can make your own. Either way, dont just memorise the quotations by themselves- learn the language analysis, how it links to key themes, context and characters and when it is said (this heavily influences how the reader will feel depending on if tension is rising or its a period of calm etc).
Doing lots of essays and having them marked will help you find whereyoure losing marks and then you can work on those key areas. Also reading through model essays and seeing what makes them get the highest marks is a great idea- you could use examiner reports to find common areas where people lose marks.
I used mind mapping a lot for literature so try that if you want to work on your marks. You could mindmap a quotation, a chapter,character, theme, piece of context, poem etc. Make sure that whenever you make a mindmap you include quotations which linkin and lots of details.

Do as much practice as you can. There are 3 reasons for this which i focus on. Firstly, doing practice questions means thatyoure continually exercising the parts of your brain which are needed to do maths so the more you practice the more naturally itwill come to you. Doing exam style questions also means that you’ll get used to the types of questions that you’ll be asked- tobe honest they dont tend to vary too much year on year so practicing old questions really helps. Thirdly, doing practicequestions means you’ll identify what you’re struggling with.
There’s loads of sites you can use to get questions on specific topics or find practice papers. If you have access to sites likeMathswatch or DrFrost those are helpful. Cognito has questions and videos which i would recommend. Corbett maths 5-a-dayis exceptionally useful.
Once you’ve done practice questions, you can then find what you’re struggling with struggled on and recap it. Watching a videois the way i find the best to do this- videos are especially helpful if they have example questions which you can work throughand then see how the teacher would do them. CorbettMaths, Cognito and GCSEMathsTutor are the channels id suggest youtake a look at.
Once youre confident on understanding a topic then you’ll need to do lots more practice questions to get used to what you’ll beasked in exams. CorbettMaths has loads of banks of practice questions on particular topics which are very helpful.
Science:
With science, a lot of the content is quite memory based so make sure you’re continually reviewing topics. One way of doingthis is sites like Tassomai and StudySmarter which use spaced repetition questioning. Or you could blurt on a few topics eachweek and see what youre forgetting. Like with maths, doing practice questions often will mean you know what you need tofocus on.
Once youre aware of a weaker area, watch a video and try your recall task again. I found for science that anything visual reallyengaged me- use some coloured pens, modelling clay, a whiteboard… anything that will make you think about what you’relearning a bit more.
The question types are really important so doing exam style questions is a must. Application of knowledge isvery important so practicing applying your knowledge is really useful- often it could be applying your knowledge to practicalskills so make sure you have a generally good knowledge of practicals too. 15% of your exams will be on working scientificallyso revising this is essential. FreeScienceLessons have a good playlist on that content and then you’ll need to review requiredpractical methods (check out the videos by Malmesbury science and ScienceShorts for this).
There’s also going to be plenty of calculation questions in science, in some parts of chem and across physics especially. This isagain practice, IsaacPhysics is a fantastic resource for this.
English language:
Having a clear paragraph structure for each question is super important. I used PEAR paragraphs pretty consistently acrossmost questions because they allowed me to get lots of marks pretty consistently. PEAR stands for Point (literally answering thequestion, a topic sentence) Evidence (pick a quote) Analysis (any language and/or structural techniques, depending on whatthe question asks you to comment on) Reader (link your quote to how the reader will likely feel- its doesn’t have to be deep butusing fancyish words like anticipation can make your writing sound less surface level).

For Sciences - Do a past paper. Then identify where you went wrong. Learn the topics you went wrong in. Learn the whole content again.Do questions related to that topic only. At last continue doing past papers. Remember practice makes perfect. Also try using flashh cards.
But the best thing that worked for me is applying your science knowledge to every thing around you. This develop your mind and also improve the ability to answer questions by understanding questions.
Thanks.

by ghlozokay so basically i want to aim for all 9s in my gcses but sadly my school is on a massive teacher lack but alongside tutoring i'd love to have other students who have taken or are at a grade 9 standard already. The main subjects i really need to up my game in are english literature and history as i want to take them for A Level. The reason why i would like to achieve all 9s is because id really like to study Law at cambridge one day and i know Cambridge look at GCSE grades
My subjects are as followed:
AQA English Literature (Macbeth, A christmas carol, An inspector calls, Power and conflict anthology (PLS HELP W THAT ONE))
AQA English Language
Edexcel Maths Higher
AQA combined science higher trilogy (this is my weakest subject in my last mocks especially biology)
Edexcel History (Crime and Punishment, Early Elizabeth, Weimar Germany and Cold War and superpower relations)
Edexcel French Higher
AQA Religious Studies A (Christianity, Islam, Themes A B D E)
Please guys i'm not trying to be ungrateful at all I am really happy as i am fluctuating between 7s and 8s at the minute but i want to ensure for my real thing i get 9s i'll appreciate any help or any tips i get given thank you so much.

you are most welcome, i have many more tips for other subjects and if i get time ill share them too, but for maths cuz i was a bit last minute i opened the past papers on one side of my pc and the mark scheme on the other side and went through all the past papers till 2017 i think, because THEY DO repeat questions they just change the numbers and honestly that was the reason i got the 9, because i learnt some last minute methods and questions from the mark scheme, for tricky vectors and ratios topics use thegcsemathstutor, and also mathsgenie for questions
for macbeth/inspector calls use the youtube channel called firstratetutors for model answers and i used pmt notes to make mindmaps and quotes and pre analysed them using top vocab, for each character and setting,etc.
i did mainly edexcel not sure about aqa sciences but the go to was to just re read the textbooks (try to enjoy what u read for bio like just try relate it to real life some bits are interesting but not for everyone, so that when you come home you just feel motivated and curious to learn/read the textbook) until you basically understood and memorised it then just look for the trigger in the question and blurt it out in past papers, of course you do need a very good understanding for a grade 9 for the higher mark application questions, so do lots of past paper questions and after reading content, try to teach someone and USE THE SPEC!!!! they will only ask u questions made from the SPECIFICATION!!!
i wish u all the best

I'm predicted a grade 9 in history and my main advice for it is ESSAY PRACTICE. Currently in the middle of revision for my cold war test tomorrow so I know how daunting the essays can be but by following the structure you will adhere to the mark scheme and examiners are more likely to give you marks more easily. Ensure to practice under timed conditions as well, if you can't be bothered type the essay on your laptop and shorten the time limit a bit as typing is faster, then get chat GPT to mark it against your exam boards specification. The advice isn't super specific but gives you a general idea of areas to improve. If possible you could also write practice essays for you're teacher to mark but I know this may be difficult due to the staff shortages you mentioned.
Also, make sure to also revise specific content (I do this through making revision tools of each subtopic and blurting them as well as flashcards for key dates) as this can get you're grade up even more and it shows the examiner you have a good range of knowledge.
Hope this helps and best of luck with everything!! ❤️

With the combined science, I was failing in year 10 and I ended up with 9-9. My advice is to buy the textbook (the massive purple one was the one I had) and just use that as your bible. I basically ignored my lessons since the structure didn't help me learn at all. Use the YouTube channel Cognito as well to learn the content. Then you should complete every single past paper on the AQA website (I did this multiple times), and use the mark schemes to learn extra content that might be explained differently to the textbook. You can use mark schemes to make notes. I learn from note taking but do whatever is best for you. I basically mainly focused on bio and chem, physics I hateddd and just ignored as the content wasn't that bad and the equation sheet helped a ton. So yeah.
