aqa gcse physics/ chemistry

hi! i’m in year 10, and i have end of year exams in 3/4 weeks.
my biggest problem that i’m having with revision is being able to revise efficiently and time management.
but another is, PHYSICS.
i’m predicted grade 8s and 9s in all of my subjects, but i’m really struggling with physics. like i have done practice questions of the topics we have done and im getting close to no marks. i just don’t understand it (which is a shame because i really like physics).

could i have some tips for understanding physics and being able to effectively and efficiently revise in these weeks before the exam?
thank you! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

Hiya!

I hated physics during GCSE's, was always struggling, but realised the most important thing was understanding, it is NOT a memorising subject. Pretend to teach yourself the content, always asking why then most importantly exam questions!! If you get a question wrong try to understand WHY rather than moving on. Understand the questions.

I came out of my physics exams thinking I massively flopped but came out with an 8.

You will do amazing, practice makes perfect, you've got this.
