Study Tip #1

this is specific for what i did on aqa gcse science to get me three grade nines in triple science

use your websites!!!!!

my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITES:

SENECA - repeated questions, breaks down each topic by topic, it kinda functions by giving you the information and then interactively asking you to fill in the blanks to test your memory. i think this comes under active recall (idk ive seen too many videos on studytok) but it really helped me. there are also exam questions and revision specific modes which are great for last-minute revision sessions, especially towards GCSEs - the main con is that there is a limit to the number of exam questions you can do each day, and a couple of the courses (hyperlearning?) are locked behind premium too. i didn't buy premium and still found this website absolutely brilliant

COGNITO - kinda similar to seneca but the main function of this website is the videos - these are the best videos i found for gcse science - they are clear, colour coded and allowed me to visualise difficult topics, especially on physics paper 2 - if you know you know. there are also loads of questions similar to seneca but you have to submit so actually have to process the questions, and they tend to mimic exam questions a lot better, telling you the marks you might get for a specific question etc.

PHYSICS AND MATHS TUTOR - EXAM PRACTICE QUESTIONS - they have every exam board, every topic broken down into questions and past papers which are essential for revision. i would really recommend using videos and seneca to learn the content and then use physics and maths tutor to practice exam technique

FREE SCIENCE LESSONS - everyone knows him, his videos are really informative, i personally didn't find them particularly engaging and preferred cognito overall BUT the required practical videos are brilliant, and its really good to cross reference your knowledge, and make sure to watch the videos that you like as this will encourage you to actually want to revise lol

these were what i used for science, i also love the cgp guides as well which i would recommend too.

bye :)

Hi there!!!!

hi my name's ellie, and welcome to my study blog! I'm currently a student in year 12 studying maths, further maths, french and english language for my a levels

this blog is going to mix of study tips that I've found really useful when studying my GCSEs and over the first 6 months of my a-levels, and also as a log of what I realistically do on an everyday basis school-wise

grade wise, at GCSEs i got 9 grade nines, and one grade 8 and 7 as well as an A in additional maths, so these tips are what helped me to achieve top grades in all of my subjects

I'm aiming at the moment of the rest of this school year towards oxbridge, which is where I would like to study at university - courses I'm thinking about currently are french and linguistics, although since my a levels are quite broad i still have a lot of options

so, that was just a quick intro to me and this blog, stick around for my tips and updates, thanks for reading byeee :)
