    My favourite tip was making your own textbook as memorising formulas is something I tend to overlook so having it written separately will help me go over it more often.

  • @leviackerman5870
    @leviackerman5870 2 года назад +16

    I think ny favourite tip will always be the redoing past papers until you get a certain mark. I actually do it after every test, from memory, and I found when I went through and read it properly, I often made really silly mistakes, e.g. subtracting vectors instead of adding. I'm going to get the A* no matter what:^))))

  • @shashirai1783
    @shashirai1783 Год назад +6

    I think my favourite tip is having a proof exam book because it's one of the simpler marks to gain and is a topic that reoccurs often but I always miss out because I can never do the proof. Being able to memorise it in my opinion is very useful as well as repeating the exam paper because I just usually leave it after doing it once.
