HELP!!) REVISION APP-UpLearn/SaveMyExams/StemUp??

username7312016

Hi! I’m now in year 12, studying Biology(OCR), Chemistry(OCR) and Math(Edexcel).
I’m looking for a revision app to replace my current 1:1 tuition as it cost way too much money(£1k😭) for just a month

As I believe that math cannot really be self-taught by those type of apps (its more like trained with past papers), I’m sticking with the current tuition and doing past papers question.

However for biology and chemistry, I’m cutting the tuition that I was getting ands do need those resources. I don’t mind it costing a bit for subscription. I’ve searched up a bit and shortlisted some, but I cannot decide within:
-UpLearn
-SaveMyExams
-StemUp

I would say I am pretty much a visual learner, so the videos for UpLearn and SavemyExams seemed appealing to me.

I would love to hear from people who has actually used any of those resources

+Am I right about the math learning strategy/method? Or would there be anything that might help me with my math as well.

Thank you!!!

I use SaveMyExams and it's quite nice to have everything in place! I would say it's worth it.

For biology, up learn is amazing. Very good for visual learning and active recall, seems to be the only way for it to stick in my memory! Also good for chemistry, I’m a different exam board but is good for explaining things

save my exams is pretty good if you don't have notes for a subject. however, for topical questions there are more on pmt. but whatever topical qs are present on SME, they give an explanation on how to answer them, so that's helpful

Does your school not offer sufficient resources? - I've never felt the need for a revision app, but to each their own. TLMaths on youtube is good for maths, and I'd imagine there are similar youtubers for biology and chemistry.
