Thanks for the advice. I also got 3Ds in my As, and I'm now struggling to know how I can get at least B's in my Alevels, that's coming up in May '19. I hope I can achieve my goals now.
Not gonna lie Ryhan...i confidently picked my subjects because i enjoyed them. I chose the same subjects as you except instead of CHEMISTRY i chose Maths. In my recent economic test...i got a U. I aspire and am motivated to get an A* - and this video was exactly that i needed. Thank you!
@@mdot9551 i used the specification , mostly all what Ryan said but what really helped was class discussions and alot of tests ( active recall) but the dumb thing is i would be the highest in my class with a d 😂 because we were pre exposed that in Economics is difficult. About uni i am doing accounting not Economics though .👊
@@78hfdl since you got a D during first year, what where your predictions and how did they change? (e.g, were you predicted a D before you broke up for summer in year 12 & did the teachers change that to an A before you sent off your application in year 13?)
I have Bio chm and Eco in a levels as well. I honestly enjoyed economics at a time but then when i opened the mark scheme i realized there is very little room for independent thinking and creativity,what gets considered a right answer is very specific so now i just want to get it over with.Oh and i always run out of time!
rafath chowdury physics is crazy as hell but manageable? I know the key to physics is just hard work, you can get away with knowing less if you just do enough papers, it’s just CHEMISTRY I don’t even underSTAND
Also with chem practice papers are definitely key because the questions do repeat. Just make sure you also get the CGP revision guide and use your spec codes.
Hi Ryhan do the a level textbooks endorsed from that exam board for Biology and Chemistry have all the material and detail to get an A or A* grade and the endorsed textbooks from the exambaord do they have the right wording that the mark scheme wants .
hello Ryhan for my first year of a level i got a D in economics and i think its because i did not really had a proper timetable and now i am resitting for the a level exam this year and i have only 6 months to finish up with my revision. Could you suggest me a way of how much time i need to spend for economics revision and if you could share your revision timetable as well. With kind regards Jenn.
I try to do lots of past papers, but my teacher only marks like 1 or 2 every couple of weeks, did you self mark all ur economics essay? How do I mark my essays if my teacher isnt gonna mark it :(
I never fully wrote out all my essays, there’s not really much point. I used to make plans for as many possible essay titles I could think of that way I was prepared for whatever I got in the exam.
I had 2.5A*, 6A, 1B, 1C which is below average for the average medical student but I've had 1 offer and 3 interviews so far. GCSEs don't matter for most unis but make sure you apply to unis that don't care about GCSEs. Apply to unis that only want you to meet the minimum GCSE requirements (e.g, Newcastle, Brighton and Sussex, Plymouth, Exeter etc.). Keep in mind though this means your other parts of your application need to be strong
Did u start writing AS notes 5 months before? Or had u already written them by the start of upper sixth form? Cos I haven’t written AS notes and I’m worrying it’s too late to get a good mark😭
Hi Ryhan ! I am from Pakistan , I am doing CIE physics and maths ( both As and A2 combine ) . I am so scared because I feel it too difficult than o level . I just want to ask that is four moths enough to get A grade in both subjects if I work hard ( like if I study 8 to 10 hours daily ) .
I was using the OCR endorsed textbook, but basically the larger ‘textbooks’ are in my opinion pointless to revise from because they have too much information in them
Murtaza Haidary No medical school (except certain colleges in Cambridge) asks for maths A level. I've had 3/4 interviews for medicine so far and I took Biology, chemistry and history
rafath chowdury some people want to do it because: money, prestige, genuinely want to help people, enjoy sciences, enjoy ethics and philosophy, want to keep the NHS alive, flexible career choices, good job security. Many reasons. But the ones going in for prestige and money arent in the right state if mind.
rafath chowdury when you’re in GCSE you are still immature and young and i know that from experience that many people (almost 60%) from my school said they wanted to do medicine for money. Now that people see what medicine is all about, a lot of people have looked at other careers which makes me happy because it lessens the number of misinformed people going into medicine and gives a chance for those who genuinely want to study the subject.
rafath chowdury Yes a lot of people tend to find that out during A-levels. They can chase money with less stress with degrees such as economics and engineering etc. Im not saying that every student wants to chase money but if you ask people, genuinely, most will say that money is a factor when deciding what career path to go through
hassan nassar yh I’m doing economics and physics and maths cuz I realised I could get the same amount of money by do these subjects rather than one like med where the competition is considerably high
YES YOU CAN but in my school you really have to pester your teachers/heads of department (or whomever is incharge) to get them changed, call it persistence. Also you need to try and get the best grades you can in all your test from here until end of year exams, even if it's just a key word test, so your teachers see that you are actually capable of reaching those higher predictions. Hope that info helps a little bit.
Most medical schools don't really care about GCSEs so long as you have a minimum B in English and maths. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't try for them. If you get high GCSEs, you'll stand a good chance in GCSE heavy unis like Cardiff
omarmanutd I don't even think I'm going to do well at all because my predicted grades are around 8 and 9 ( A*) but I'm seriously underachieving and getting only 6s (B)... A level I definitely know I'll be able to do decent because the subjects in picking I'm actually interested in and am doing well in them rn so...
Thats mad how you ended up with an A* in econ. Well done
Cheers Dylan
*Simple answer to shorten what you said. Hardwork, Practice, Revision and the cycle continues*
No, I am just useless at education.
Hello hamzah , Does research needed ? Reply fast thank
From a U to an A* English literature
omg how😩
Tamanna Akthar learned structure, embedded AOs, research and lots of exam questions
How long did that take holyyyyy sh that’s mad impressive
@@idkwhatthisis7319 It took from beginning of AS to the end.

Salma Ahmed same I got a D in Econ’s, if you found helpful tips lemme know. Writing May 2019 too
Salma Ahmed what did you got now??
Hi, wondering if you achieved your goals??
I have two As and a B and i need to turn the B into an A*. Really scared cuz I’ve never gotten anything above A even in GCSEs
You can do it
How r u doing now?
From an U to a B ❤️
- - a* U (because U is pronounced as "you")
How did you do it I’m getting E in economics at the moment ??
Lucas Prosser what exam board are you on
For saying “an” instead of “a,” it’s no wonder you got a U.
Minimo TV we switched from Ocr to aqa that’s how deep it is
Why is this only showing up 2 weeks before my A level results 😭
Lmao

Looool "I don't think that is physically possible" Keep up the great work!
Great advice!!
I watch videos like this for motivation and this just really guided me and motivated me. THANK YOU FOR SHARING
Insightful video!! I agree past papers are king for A level revision, I’ve raved about them in a few of my videos
Just got mocks back and got the same grades as you... Sign from God, i think so 👌🏾👌🏾
What if you're sitting an exam that has never been sat before and there are no past papers?
Doing old spec papers can still be helpful ngl
@@63kg32 better late than never.
Useful as always my guy
Great video! Great timing! Thank you Ryhan :)

I swear I neeed Biology tips ocr bio is too much

Been waiting for this vid for ages
Hope it’s useful !

I’m struggling like hell with AS chemistry. I just can not wrap my head around it (and I’m taking bio,physics chem AND math). Please help :((
Fatima Khan how you finding physics
rafath chowdury physics is crazy as hell but manageable? I know the key to physics is just hard work, you can get away with knowing less if you just do enough papers, it’s just CHEMISTRY I don’t even underSTAND
Ahaha I feel your pain I've taken all them and physics is the one I find the hardest. Also in my AS year
Zain Akif dude. This is impossible. How’d you do in your IGCSE’s?
Also with chem practice papers are definitely key because the questions do repeat. Just make sure you also get the CGP revision guide and use your spec codes.

Your amazing ryhan
From where did you do all the past papers from?? Wanna know the resources for that. Pleaaasseeee reply 😫
Upload more frequently pleasssssseeeeeee
If I got an E in English literature at AS do you think it would be a good idea to resit the exam or should I spend that time working harder for A2.
I try to do lots of past papers, but my teacher only marks like 1 or 2 every couple of weeks, did you self mark all ur economics essay? How do I mark my essays if my teacher isnt gonna mark it :(
Asma Motin good question
I never fully wrote out all my essays, there’s not really much point. I used to make plans for as many possible essay titles I could think of that way I was prepared for whatever I got in the exam.
really want to know how many hours of studying you did everyday?
Your videos are brilliant!
Doing bits
Where can I get past papers for GCSE and a level?
Bro, if you got a D at the end of year 12 what was your university prediction for economics?
Did you repeat your AS level or did you just turn your D to an A by hard work?
When do you recommend we start A level revision?
hassan nassar From the first day of school
In the womb
As early man
Did you apply to Oxbridge with your low predicted grades in y12 ?
This is basically whats happening with me (first part)
Can I only follow the specification cause my book has extra stuff
Why did you pick Durham instead of the other two??
Ryhan is it possible for a person with bad gcses but good a levels like aab get into foundation year with medicine?
Or should I resit and get the b upto an a or a*

Do you take out the medical books from the library or have you bought your own copies? Thanks!
Hey Ryhan - when you mention about resources, can you tell me which resources you were using initially i.e. for AS... just curious.
I was using the OCR endorsed textbook, but basically the larger ‘textbooks’ are in my opinion pointless to revise from because they have too much information in them
thanks! at the moment i'm using the CGP one.. seems to be ok
when you say revision, do you mean learn for the 1st time? thanks xx
Hello does it necessary to do research in economics in order to get A+ in economics?
I'm 18 I'm planning to take A-levels when I'm 19 am I late ? ( please answer back )
Sandana _1124 Hey I'm 24 and in my second year of A levels- it's never too late!
laura kyna thanks appreciate it
Never too late to gain knowledge
Definitely not
At all you will see people older than you
hi ryhan,can you get into medicine with economics + biology and chemistry.and can you get in with phycology with biology and chemistry too.
Murtaza Haidary yeah you can
Yeah you need bio + chem mainly for medicine and another academic subject
so I don't have do maths a level
Murtaza Haidary No medical school (except certain colleges in Cambridge) asks for maths A level. I've had 3/4 interviews for medicine so far and I took Biology, chemistry and history
omarmanutd what are your predicted grades and have you had any offers back?
Do we memorise when studying for econs?
Did u give retake or AL?
What do you think about Aviation in the future
The fact that you’re bad at math, makes me feel really good.
Because i suck at math and im pre-med 😂😂😂
Hey man, what tripod do you use?
I need to be like him
i wants to get an A
Thanks man
I swear isn’t the competition for med really high cuz everyone wants to do it but why though??
rafath chowdury some people want to do it because: money, prestige, genuinely want to help people, enjoy sciences, enjoy ethics and philosophy, want to keep the NHS alive, flexible career choices, good job security. Many reasons. But the ones going in for prestige and money arent in the right state if mind.
hassan nassar but tbh there’s so many other ways you can get money and prestige

Did you repeat or u continued with a D and got A*
