And if there’s 11 days left, I wouldn’t bother with trying to do questions on my

own, I’d try and revise strategically

1) ensure that you’ve nailed down the content. Just knowing the content inside out
can ensure you a good C or B grade, so all the reagents, organic stuff, mechanism
etc. And knowing all the practical stuffs. Bro I’d use the chemrevise.org IAL
chemistry revision packs, they have all the content for unit 4 5 6 condensed and
concise.
For transitional metals, I believe that’s unit 5, I’d make sure I know all the
ions, their oxidation states, and their colours, and know the formation of the ions
meaning the equations.
2) try and learn as much as you can from using mark schemes and the examiners
report ( they tell what mistakes students did, or why students lost marks)
3) try and learn from your own mistakes. And the questions you attempted, and mock
exams you’ve done,
If you’re loosing out on like calculation marks, then memorise like a standard way
of approaching the questions.
For example, in chemistry, if given reagents, set up equation, if given the mass
and Mr of something, directly work out moles of both reagents, then work out which
one is the limiting reagent, then use that to work out the moles of product keeping
in mind the molar ratio between limiting reagent and product, then use Mrxmoles to
work out the mass of product formed.
4) memorise all formulas, and their rearranged forms, make like flash cards of them
and remember in which scenario they’d be used. and try and do calculation pack
questions, I m sure there are plenty online.
5) A LOT OF STUDENTS LOOSE MARKS COZ THEY DONT PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT THE QUESTION
IS ASKING, I cannot emphasise this enough, READ THE FULL QUESTION. MAKE SURE YOURE
ANSWERING WHAT THE QUESTION IS ASKING.
Understand what each command word means, like describe explain, etc, if you don’t,
it’s explained in your specification,
And don’t hesitate when answering a question, be confident.
You’ve done enough papers to pick up the trend in the type of questions for each
unit and topics, so you’ve got this.
6) ALOT OF STUDENTS LOOSE THESE MARKS IN THE EXAM, make sure you have the correct
number of decimal places, correct number of signification figures. 4 sig fig in
your calculations, and 3 for your answer if they haven’t specified, and DO NOT
FORGET THE UNITS AT THE END.
Don’t cut off 50% marks just coz your answer doesn’t much, make sure you mark
yourself fairly, but not generously.
Same can be applied to physics. I hope that helps. And if you need further tips.
You can message me.
MOST OF ALL BE CONFIDENT. YOUVE GOT THIS, YOU LEARNT EVERYTHING YOU COULD, YOU
WORKED HARD. YOURE BEAUTIFUL AND SMART AND YOULL DO WELL. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.
