Thank u sm and i love ur vid!

@SarahChu 2 жыл бұрын

Hi! Glad you enjoyed, I think if you're starting Y11 soon, prioritize the subjects that you need for uni and the subjects that you are struggling with most. If you haven't already, go through your specification and tick off the bullet points you are confident in and star the ones you aren't so familiar with. Also, make a list of all the topics that you find challenging for each subject and go through past papers and write down the chapters that come up often- use that as a starting point, don't start from chapter 1. From then on, do as many past papers as possible up until your exams. In terms of study tips, try to study "actively" (e.g. doing past papers, turning your specification into questions and answering them, flash cards, teaching a concept to a friend etc.) as opposed to passive methods (e.g. highlighting, reading your textbook etc.) Hope that helped :)

In hindsight, it wasn't a very effective use of my time (I make flashcards now), but if there are certain things you need to memorise like the results of experiments in chemistry, I would just make tables and try and fill them out without looking at the answers. If you find it really difficult, then try doing once a day until it sticks in your long term memory!
