I did the same trick with my o levels for the past 3years so you’re 100% accurate. I give you a standing ovation you’re a true IG student to the heart❤️❤️❤️✨✨
Orr you can make notes for every end of topic test using multiple resources (which is still making notes as you go along, just not after every lesson but rather at the end of a chapter) and then keep modifying your notes throughout the year by adding things from mark schemes as you do practice questions and removing irrelevant info. I feel like the title of the video gives the wrong idea that you should leave making notes til right before your exams which will just make your life a lot harder.
digital notes/digital flashcards(e.g anki or quizlet) are even better because you can easily edit your notes rather than crossing them out as you would do with paper notes! i'm doing this for my bio spec and it really helps!
where do you get questions/markschemes for each topic? i find some but struggle to find specific ones as i’m going through the spec and i don’t want to miss anything out
@@fiz3509 but I've been doing a lot of exampro exam questions and even though they have the same keywords, they're inconsistent and are different for each question. I'm so frustrated bc idk how to revise for this subject. I'm doing well in maths and geography but biology's mark schemes keeping fucking me up. it's not that biology is hard to understand, it's just the stupid exam scheme
@@hplus1 keep going w practice questions! I know the mark schemes can be hard but they will help you adapt to the exam technique and you’ll be able to answer and apply questions much easier when it comes to real tests.
@@fiz3509 just after you said this I've been doing a lot of exam questions for an end of topic test that I have tmrw and I think I'm learning and adapting from the ms like you said. I'll lyk what I get in the test edit: I'm a year late but I flopped it lol. fuck biology mark schemes
Charli G You‘ve still got a few months!! You can always try! But... In all honesty, maybe not EVERYTHING - just prioritise what will help you the MOST. Such as correct notes, flashcards, and mocks - don‘t bother with post-it notes and Mindmaps 💗✨
I’m in second year of. A level Biology AQA. Start revising early. By revising I mean spaced repetition and active recall. Also do as many PST papers as possible and learn mark scheme points
@@benaxon9721 hi I’m in year 12 doing biology, I’ve already started ppqs however, I see that I’m getting all of my knowledge questions right but the application questions I’m not getting right. After I’ve done a past paper, what would you recommend I should do so I can boost my application skills?
@@benaxon9721 Hi I'm thinking of doing A-level Biology.I see so many RUclipss talk about doing flashcards and I'm wondering if you use this method of revision?Because I've never used/made flashcards for revision in GCSEs but in preparation for them I found doing past paper exam questions to be very helpful.So in short do you think, as long as I re-cap notes/use textbook etc , use active recall methods e.g"blurting" & past paper exam questions I'll be fine.

You can make revision sources as you go along, but just use the textbook and spec info Instead of classnoyes
What textbook ?
@@samuellacobbinahhopefully the one they gave you
@yappysoba thank you.
She is right trust me
nope

lol i lost a mark once because i said "H2O" instead of "Water"
why couldnt you say water..
@@teevee7678 why should it matter
How is memorizing mark schemes useful if exams are very different each year
Similar questions I think
because the mark schemes use specific keywords

physics and maths tutor or save my exams is good :)
please make a video on chemistry!!!!
How is memorizing mark schemes useful if the questions are different every year?
yeah I'm so confused on how to do this
@@hplus1 because every mark scheme looks for the same keywords and concepts despite the questions :)

Different mark schemes are saying different things. Help !
Ik the content, its what I’m good at but I don’t get marks
I have my a levels this year do you think I’d be able to make most my resources now and be okay or is it too late? Xx

Could you possibly share your notes
How long did it take you to make your notes since you used so many different resources?
Tasnim Zaman Probably like 4 solid hours each day xxx
Do you have a copy of your notes?
so no mind maps?
is using the specification and multiple mark schemes a good way to make notes?
oh god Yes but you should use all available resources as well, including textbooks. Specifications aren’t very detailed either x
Shouldn’t you use flashcards to condense you’re notes though by only writing key points, since there is a lot of content?
ExposerDanTv Some people do but I preferred not to for biology / chemistry as it often meant I lost marks by not writing things EXACTLY as is
what is the best way to actually learn the content
Lola Xmed Personally, mindmaps! 🥰
pls make on vid on maths I'm dyingg

So did you use to copy the mark schemes and memorise mark schemes???
No, I used to memorise my own answers that had been created using the mark scheme, school work and different textbooks 💜 x
@@justadiamond4961 ah ok

Your amazing 💕💕💕

Very helpful
