    I have been starting to revise maths on Hegarty Maths by doing the past papers as I did it up to question 8 and next I want to carry it on starting from question 9.What is your advice?

    How would you recommend marking topic questions from physics and maths tutor
    How would i learn from my mistakes like doing it again?
    ( science ) cause i do topic questions for a topic and i dont know what to do with the ones i get wrong ( if that makes sense 😭 )

    Should I do all topic past papers before doing the full ones

      You don't need too. I certaintly didn't! I liked past papers because they mixed up questions so you get more variety.

    How do I consolidate questions I get wrong? Should I just input the question and the markschemes into anki?

    • @RAmjad
      @RAmjad  4 місяці тому

      It depends on the question. If it's something that's more understanding-based then you may want to put a flashcard about the general concept into Anki. If not, then you can put the question/answer into Anki.

    i bought the biology chemistry and physics grade 8-9 targeted workbook, would u advise starting them now or waiting closer till the exams?

    • @RAmjad
      @RAmjad  4 місяці тому +1

      I'd suggest starting them now because it gives you more time to think about the really hard questions. They're more problem-solving focused and you don't really learn problem-solving overnight.

      @@krixzby695Hi, sorry I missed this comment. I respond significantly faster on Instagram.
      I honestly can't remember much as I last did these subjects when I was 16 at GCSE. I think I just interleaved that with things I was good at and enjoyed more. For example, doing a science past paper, then writing a practice essay, then doing another science past paper.
      But for me personally, when full revision kicked in the months before exam, I began to disassociate myself from my emotions and didn't have any feelings towards any subject. I just did it. Maybe use some subjects you enjoy to build up momentum then switch to ones you enjoy less?

      Do lots of practice questions that are grade 9 questions.

    Hey Ray, i know you are busy currently and may not be able to reply to comments but can I ask if you did the new specifications and if so, did you do the old spec past papers? i was wondering if the difference is massive and if i benefit focusing on the old past papers until June for my alevels and alongside reviewing and recalling the content. Thanks
