A-level help
I am in year 13 studying maths, chemistry and physics. I have been getting around Bs in most of my mocks but I need at least 3 As. For the mocks, I normally did like 2 week of actual revision. My first exam is physics in around a month and a half. How can I move from Bs to As in the span of 2 ish months? In particular for physics?

Go and talk to relevant teachers and ask for their help / advice - this is exactly what they are there for.

Do at least 2 past papers each week! Mark and write down your improvements (like you’re weakest area is Particle Physics, so do PMT questions on Particle Physics)! Go over your notes every week, and revise. In OCR Physics, to get an A, you normally need around 70% so see if you can get yourself to try and get 75% by zooming in onto the questions you struggle with most. Are they six markers, multiple choice, describe, explain, calculation questions?

I'd look at past papers and identify the areas you need to work on. Use textbooks and materials online to learn more and improve your understanding, and then work on the questions for these topics.
There are tons of videos and websites online that will be able to explain things, and once you've used these and understand all that you can, the only thing left to do is practice with past papers.

This isnt subject specific, but i always found past papers to be useful.
