I’m not sure if you’re busy and if you’re unable to then i completely understand, but you would you be able to make me predictions for this years papers using the predictions for last years papers and last year’s papers? (Maths and English specifically). Thank you so much for everything ! (Regardless of whether you’re able to or not xx)

    • @@A.Daniel509 yee bet but my schedule started a week or so ago:- Im taking igcse 9-1, 8 subjects Chem:- April 05-08 (Past Papers: April 09) Physics:- April 10-12 (Past Papers: April 13) Bio:- (I've alr revised this subject so April 14, Past Papers: April 15) Math:- April 15-17 (Past Papers: April 18) History:- April 19-20 (Do past papers along with notes on April 20, as well as learn how to answer essay-types) Geo:- April 21-24 (General Knowledge and key words up to April 22, April 23/24 are Past Papers Along with case studies) Do past papers on your weakest subjects up to 2 days before the exams start, and then do more questions on the subjects which u take first, as you need to hit the ground running 👍 If it really is that stressful, I recommend getting familiar with caffeine and staying up before your exams start, and only revising parts you don't feel comfortable with a day before the exam. Make sure that you get ur spec, and avoid social media and games, as these next 1-2 months are the last haul before Summer. Gl bro 👊

  • I wasted the last 2 years of my life by not paying attention in class, flopping my gcse mocks and literally binge watching Netflix series. Just today, I realised i’m screwed. I started stressing like crazy watching ‘last minute’ videos for gcse - it didn’t help but it made my stress level worse seeing that there’s just so much to do is so little time. I am so glad I came across this video. Giving me some hope to get from such little to at least all A’s. From this video, I’ve realised that GCSE is mostly memorisation and with the motivation I can achieve what I want. It’s not too late to start. So to my future self, when opening those results on the 22nd of August, I hope you succeeded. Hard work will pay off.

  • This gave me so much more courage. I recently travelled from abroad and now living in the UK, and because of the college system, i was stuck in entry level english and maths for 3-4months and was just moved up to Higher maths and 9-1 English Language in December. Though im doing alright in english language, i have high ambitions for higher maths which i’m not even close to achieving and i already regret 2/3 months i had before to study in which i didn’t know. Now i have 1 month and almost 3years of content to learn and understand and be able to apply… it sucks and i can already feel the burn out (esp having worked so hard abroad learning a new language for top grades, only to move to england and be told they weren’t even GCSE equivalent) but i’m determined and willing to sacrifice anything that stops me.

  • If you do Pearson Edexcel history (like me), learning how to structure your answer for each question type is really important! It helps a lot because even if you mind blank and can't remember specific facts, try to follow the formula and you should get at least some marks. I have structures for all question types for Medicine, Cold War, Richard and John, and Russia - if anyone is struggling with structuring their answers for any of these topics, I can let you know what formulas I use! Good luck everyone - but I'm sure you don't need luck, because you're strong and you can work hard right now to get the grades you deserve! Plus, you're worth so much more than your grades :) don't stress too much xx

    • @@bubbxles1843 sure! For Russia: Q1 this basically structures the answer for you, all you have to do is fill in the lines! Q2 - 12 marker "explain why" question. they will give u 2 bullet points in the question which u can use. so do 3 paragraphs - one about the 1st bullet point, one about the 2nd, then one using your own knowledge. (there's nothing saying you MUST use the bullet points, but they're there to help, so I'd use them if I were you) each paragraph should IDENTIFY a reason, then DEVELOP with your knowledge, then LINK back to the focus of the question. "one reason for this was..." then insert some facts, then "this led to / caused / meant that" (link it clearly back to the Q) IDENTIFY, DEVELOP, LINK! don't overthink this question, just 3 short/medium paragraphs, each one explaining a reason Q3 will ask you to look at two sources and state "how useful" they are. for this question I use JCOP: J- Judgement. "source A is useful for the enquiry because it shows/suggests/implies..." C- Content. directly quote the source - "the source says that..." make sure you quote something that is relevant to the point ur trying to make O- Own knowledge. after quoting the source, say "this is accurate as I know that..." and insert some relevant facts that you know P- Provenance. this is about how reliable or trustworthy the source is. "the provenance of the source makes it useful because..." for example if it was written by an eyewitness, that makes it more reliable so in summary for Q3=two JCOP paragraphs, one for each source Q3b is nice and easy. just state the main difference between the two interpretations - it will probably be made quite obvious for you. try to quote each interpretation briefly Q3c - this says "suggest one reason the interpretations may differ" - for this one you ALWAYS want to say that they differ because they have used DIFFERENT SOURCES OF INFORMATION. this answer works for every possibility. each interpretation will correspond to one of the sources, either A or B. "the interpretations may differ because they have used different sources. interpretation 1 focuses on ... so may have relied on sources like source A, which says... however, interpretation 2, with its focus on ... may have used sources like source B" I hope that made sense Q3d is the 16 marker. DON'T OVERTHINK IT, just because its a longer question u don't need to panic! you can use your "main difference", that you wrote about in Q3b, as the basis of ur 1st paragraph each paragraph should look something like this: Argument, Knowledge, Other argument, Judgement step 1: think about what ARGUMENT is being made in the interpretation (always start with the interp they're actually asking u about!!) your first sentence could start something like "interpretation 1 argues that...", I would also include a quote here step 2: back this up with your KNOWLEDGE. one, maybe two sentences of your knowledge that agree with the argument made in the interpretation step 3: what does the OTHER interpretation argue? "however / on the other hand, interpretation 1/2 argues that..." this is literally just one sentence stating what the other interp says! step 4: make a JUDGEMENT. "therefore, we may agree more/less strongly with interpretation 1/2, because.." this seems like a lot when i type it all out but honestly it's not so bad. INTERP IN QUESTION, KNOWLEDGE, OTHER INTERP, JUDGEMENT. do 3 of these paragraphs - with a very short intro and / or conclusion if you have time - and you'll do fine. when you're planning your points, look at both interpretations and highlight the key points they're making. try to find 3 and these can then form your 3 paragraphs I hope this made sense, I can clarify if anything isn't very clear! and if u want me to write any example answers then I can

    • @@bubbxles1843 For cold war: Q1 is "explain two consequences" this is nice and simple, just two short paragraphs start each one with a clear sentence about what the consequence is. then explain how the event in the question led to this consequence. for example, I recently did a question "explain two consequences of the Cuban revolution". for my first paragraph I wrote that one consequence was that relations between Cuba and the USA worsened. i talked about how the USA had close ties with Cuba and many Americans owned land and businesses there, but when Castro took over, he nationalised business and industry, which took companies from Americans. this damaged the partnership between the USA and Cuba also my top tip is that you can talk about increasing or decreasing tensions for pretty much every cold war Q1. consequence of Cuban revolution? increased tension. consequence of Berlin Wall being built? increased tension. consequence of Gorbachev's new thinking - decreased tension. Q2 - honestly the idea of a narrative account is kind of a weird one, but its not too simple. make sure you've learnt the sequences of events for major crises. for the narrative account you'll want to structure your answer as a beginning, middle and end. paragraph 1: how did the event start? paragraph 2: what was the turning point / middle / major crisis of the event? paragraph 3: what brought the event to an end? the key thing for this question is to LINK YOUR PARAGRAPHS TOGETHER - by this i just mean phrases like "as a result" "this led to" "consequently" etc - it's important to show how one thing led to another Q3 is nice because you get a choice. pick the 2 questions that you know the most about. this question is ALWAYS the importance of something on SUPERPOWER RELATIONS. they might rephrase it as "relations between the USA and USSR" or "the development of the cold war" but its always the same idea of relations between america and the ussr. for each 8 marker here, make 2 or 3 points about how the event impacted relations by the way for cold war I'd recommend really focusing your revision on consequences of events/crises, sequences of how one thing led to another, and how everything impacted relations. since these are the basis of the exam questions they're probably the best things to focus on in terms of revision again, i hope i made sense and sorry my replies are so long!!! and again I can explain anything if needed or send model answers

  • I feel like this strategy works until you enter a subject which is not knowledge based but more skill based. At A level a lot of the subjects begin to develop skills as well as knowledge, for instance a subject like further maths will have a question on every topic and many questions will require problem solving skills as well as knowledge. Most importantly, don't just learn facts, in the long run it will lead to failure, as concepts should be understood rather than learnt otherwise the courses you took were pointless regardless of the grade; it doesn't matter whether you know and can describe young double slit experiment for instance if you can't understand why it happens.
