Study Plan for A levels

Hey there! I would like to know the number of hours students currently taking AS and A Levels study each day, as I’m planning to compare them with my own study hours.

FYI, i am currently taking; Business, ICT Pure Mathematics, Mechanic and Law. My target university is requiring A*AA.
On Weekdays I am studying 3 hours on a daily basis.
On Saturdays I am studying up to 6 hours.
On Sundays it becomes up to 8 hours.

What do you think of my studying routine? Any deficits or do you think it is enough?

I think what you’re doing is definitely enough. .
It also depends on what grades you’re on right now, if it’s above a high grade C/B then you’re definitely doing enough to eventually get an A. If it’s any less, then I’d suggest reviewing your study strategies.

However it also depends on how much free time you have to do things you enjoy because you don’t want to burn out in year 12, especially when you probably don’t know all the content just yet. Consistent revision in year 12 is important, but the majority/peak of revision should be year 13

The general number of total hours per week I was doing in year 12 was between 20 and 25 hours - I do Maths, Bio, and Chem, and I got A*A*A at the end of year 12 mocks.
