Hi,

I’d recommend going through your subject specifications first and using RAG (red, amber, green) to identify any weak areas. Then make active recall resources like flashcards and mind maps, complete topic-by-topic questions, and once you feel confident with all content, move on to full past papers.

For science, I’d suggest CGP textbooks, watching FreeScienceLessons, Cognito, and using PhysicsAndMathsTutor for topic-by-topic questions.

For maths, MathsGenie website is really useful as it contains revision videos and practice questions.

For English Lit/Lang, CGP textbooks, watching Mr Salles English, and Mr Bruff are great for in depth analysis and getting yourself used to practicing timed essays and reading examiner reports.

Hope this helps, good luck!

Hi,

Hopefully revision is going well! 11 exams is a lot of content to look over, so try not to worry if you don't feel like you've covered it all yet. Mocks are all about getting exam experience and learning from your mistakes - if you didn't make any in your mocks, you wouldn't have anything to learn from for your final exams. 😁

Best of luck,
