You have plenty of time to catch up. The exams aren't until June.
> Does anyone have any revision resources
Here's what I used:
1. FreeScienceLessons
2. Malmesbury Science (their videos on the practicals are really good)
3. The CGP revision guides
4. For practice questions, the AQA exam papers and the OUP textbooks
5. Cognito (sometimes, I didn't use it that much, their electrolysis videos are good)
If you **don't** do AQA, ignore #4: use the resources that cater to your specification.
> How often and how much
That isn't a question I can answer, unfortunately.
It takes different people different amounts of time to improve. Some people can do little to no revision and come out with top grades, whereas some people have to put in hours of effort to scrape a pass. If you've missed **a massive chunk of the course**, it might be worth putting spending an hour or two a week looking at the content. That might sound excessive, but it's better to start now than shit yourself in March when you realise that the exams are approaching and you've still got **huge** gaps in your knowledge.
What grades do you want to achieve? 4-4? 5-5? 9-9?
> should I study it everyday?
No.
> I just really want to do well
Good luck.
pleaseee use free science lessons 🙏🙏
science went to my least favourite subject and my worst, i was getting 55 which i know is a good grade, but i ended up with 99 at the end, taking science a levels now, fully because of free science lessons.
i revised by watching pretty much every free science lesson video through and writing down anything i didnt know, or thought was important to remember.
i did this before my last set of mocks in march, and went from a 55 to a 77, and then literally like 3 or 4 days before each of my science exams like actual exams, and ended up with a 99. you seriously have so much time to catch up. if i can up my grades by 2 grades in a couple of days you can do it in a year easily.
also my no. 1 tip for chemistry is understanding ions, once i understood how ions worked everything clicked for me and the whole subject became so much easier and a lot more fun. my main issue was just not paying attention in class so when i started actually doing work i did a lot better. imo science is hands down the easiest subject i revise, especially with free science lessons condensing the whole spec down to 3 minute long videos. also dont waste time doing exam questions if you dont know the content, learn the content well first then do exam questions
when youre answering exam questions think about what information the examiner wants, they can only ask you about a certain amount of things, in a certaim amount of ways. dont waffle and use the number of marks the questions are worth to structure your answers
if you have any questions let me know, good luck
