Hello, I am a first year at university studying economics and I am retaking A level maths.
So far, I’ve basically done nothing. All I’ve been doing is the maths I’ve been doing at university so simple integration, differentiation et cetera with more of an economics application. I’m pretty confident I got a first class in my maths module too, but the again it’s basically just AS stuff.
Is it possible for me to get from pretty much nothing (I got a D in the actual thing) to an A or A* within 4 months privately without a tutor? Otherwise there’s no point of me retaking and I may as well cancel the retake. I’m willing to take up 4-6 hours a day if not more to revise every single day from now on and I’ve made a wager against myself too.
The reason I am retaking was to get enough UCAS points in order to meet the requirements for Internships.
What are the best steps to approach this, now that I have much more free time from before during September-December?
The way I wanted to approach it was to pretty much attempt a past paper after I’ve done enough practice before the deadline of refunding my retake and see if I’m at a minimum B level by the end of February and try get to an A/A* from March to June.
Thank you all for your patience.
