I might fail my a levels advice needed asap!!!!

•

Focus on the tough stuff first: Pick the subjects or topics you're struggling with the most and tackle those first. It’ll give you a confidence boost once you get them out of the way.

•

Do past exam papers: They’re a goldmine! You’ll get used to the format and find out what kind of questions come up often.

•

Active recall > passive reading: Instead of just reading notes, quiz yourself. Try to recall the info from memory – it helps lock it in way better. Plus this is way more fun!

•

Study with friends: If you can, get together with classmates or friends. Explaining things to others helps reinforce your own understanding.

•

Ask for help if you’re stuck: Don’t be afraid to ask your teachers or tutors for clarification. Most universities (like Bournemouth Uni!) offer extra support, whether it’s workshops, office hours, or online resources.

•

Stay organized: Keep your notes tidy and create a study plan. It’ll help you stay on track and avoid last-minute panic.

•

Look after yourself: Sleep, eat well, and take breaks. If you’re well-rested, your brain will work way better. Don’t burn yourself out!

•

Stay positive: It’s all about mindset. Take things one step at a time, and celebrate the small wins. You’ve got this!
