So proud of you love these are an amazing set of results no matter what and I hope that you are proud of yourself for working so incredibly hard. You deserve all this and more ❤️
@@oscarcastillo116 Ni idea pero este año han habido más B's que A*'s. Creo que como 6 de los 31 del curso han sacado A*. Me tiene que llegar el remark en los próximos días
Congratsss!! I am so proud of you and we all are😊you have been a very hardworking + motivating student that inspired us all one by one. And achieving such amazing grades is something you definitely deserve!! Thank you for being consistent with your vids and uploads :) Goodluck with Uni! As for me I got: Math A Physics A Chemistry B Further math C 😅
Bro, It happens to everyone I guess- I got a C in maths Year 12, which was unfortunate as I had prepared to atleast get a low A, my other subjects were at A- But I genuinely spent too long on paper 2 and then i started stressing and this lead me to rush questions and the A was taken away from me. Its gonna be hard to get a predicted grade of A star, but I genuinely think I can change this around and scrape an A star. Do u have any tips, apart from the general 'past papers, review after each lesson, prepare for all tests etc' ?
Have you considered resitting/retaking the exams in November? That may be a very solid option. You can definitely change it around. But yeah, I recommend that you do as many past papers as there are available and that you attempt them in "real exam conditions". I think that is my most valuable piece of advice. You prove yourself that you understand all the content at once! It may be misguiding to work only in 1 topic at a time as you need to train the question recognition ability for the actual exam. Also, there are lots of RUclips videos and resources. TLMaths is a game changer, a website called "proatuition.blogspot.com" is also quite good. I also did the worksheets from a RUclipsr called "Intuitive". *The last two resources are meant for the International A Level but tbh there isn’t really much difference. Hope that helps! Let me know any other thing I might be able to help you with : )
Solid results. Sister got into medicine with AAA. However, lot of universities in UK will not accept a language A level if it is your native language. Have a lot of Chinese British friends who took A level mandarin and could not inculde it in their offer.
@@yobask8855 No it is because many are native or close to native and A level English is designed for native speakers that you can include but A levels in other languages are aimed at basic second language to learn that language and not in detail. So its like cheating.
@@yobask8855 No it is. The exams are not aimed at native or almost native speakers. Modern language A levels are just above basic level. Studying a foreign language in UK at Masters level is like Studying A level English or literature. Those are aimed at native speakers to study the language in depth. English gcse is far more complex as a language depth than A level modern languages.
@@dac8939 i see what u mean, but i still do not understand why top universities dont like it. they could just add a course onto every language for native speakers.
I would get a remark - I got my two papers remarked they some how found 12 marks on one paper, and a couple on another one this was a grade boundary jump. This is quite a few years back now (almost 20)
@@MarioFabelo fingers crossed - yes it was almost 20 years ago, and it almost stopped me going to top university to read maths + physics. Though at the time I don't really remember being very anxious about most things. I guess in todays world, there is a lot more pressure to succeed early due to an ever increasing competition. Good luck :)
@@mlguy8376 Wow, you studied both Maths and Physics?! That's so cool! What uni did you end up going to? The problem that I have is that to this day I do not have anything granted for next year. I am waiting to be given my Spanish university and then if I get accepted in Dublin I will go there. Difficult times right now. I don’t stress it too much either but it is definitely underwhelming.
You got one thing wrong. For an A* in Edexcel IAL Physics, you need 90% in A2 with 80% marks overall. That means you need 270/300 in A2 and 480/600 overall.
Omg, I just realised this more than a year later. So I would have obtained the A* with just 20 UMS points more?!! 💀😂 I had 250/300 UMS in A2 🥲 Not that it matters anymore once you get to university tho!
Hello. The Presidential School opened in Uzbekistan by the Cambridge Assessment Admission Testing Organization has been conducting exams for 3 years. The test is divided into 2 stages, the first stage will be relatively easy questions. But in the second stage, 16 critical thinking and 24 problem solving questions are asked. And this is for 5th graders. My daughter want to study to the president's school this year and recently her exams. What guides can I use to prepare my daughter? Can you advise? What resourses can you share me? Thank you in advance.
Hi there! I am not aware of that system to be honest. Is it anything like GCSE’s or A Levels? If so I maybe able to give you some advice that may come helpful but if it is not one of those exams I sincerely don’t have any more idea than you do sir. Let me know about that and I’ll try my best to help you and your daughter!
Bit late here, I'm having my gcse results tomorrow, and I'm choosing maths, further maths, physics; Since you have experience, do you have any tips/advice for further maths? I'm working close to a 9 or on 8 and the gcse maths exams for me were good.
I am not the most qualified to give Further Maths advice as I couldn’t crack the subject myself. I took 5 A Levels and had to focus on Maths, Physics and Chemistry and did not give Further Maths the amount of time it required. However, if you just do 3 A Level subjects you may be able to put the sufficient work in order to get an A or A* without burning yourself out too much. You will still have to put long hours into Further Maths and get into doing Past Papers as soon as possible. In the end it is a game and the one that knows the best tricks and that recognises the patterns more quickly is the one that does best. Although I did poorly in my exams I did learn a lot and it really helped towards my A Level Maths, for which I put very little work compared to my other subjects as I had the advantage of studying Further Maths. Hope you the best of luck tomorrow!! Let me know any other doubt that you may have : )

I think that the key is understanding, exam-technique and practice. You can try to identify which one of this might be the thing you can improve on. Personally sometimes I simply didn’t get it. Other times I didn’t know how to correctly approach a certain question to maximise potential marks and other times with math it was just lack of practice. I also struggled at some points throughout the course. Even those that end up getting top grades don’t have it figured out until just a few months before the exam. It’s always about not taking it too seriously on yourself and focusing all your efforts into improving your weaknesses instead. Let me know any other thing I might be able to help with : ) P.S. I would recommend you to resit any component you think worthwhile. I personally did a resit in November for Paper 3 and passed from a 34/60 to a 60/60!
@@w.j.b6731 Tbh I didn’t use the Physics book at all. Never opened the book at home. It lacks a lot in regards to exam technique and includes questions that are mostly different to the format that will appear in the exam. I have free Anki flashcards for Physics that you can download and may help you! Physics and Maths Tutor has both notes and flashcards that are amazing! Do many past papers and make sure to understand the logic behind the questions (go answering questions topic by topic if necessary although it’s good to be able to do the whole paper). Maths is very similar although the book might help a bit more.
For the history of my school in Y13 about 60% of the class always got A*’s and the other 40% got A. This year there have been many B’s in Spanish. That I am aware of only 5 people got A* from 31 students that are all native Spanish. It’s as frustrating as it gets as I am Spanish and feel like I did perfectly well and got an 88-A. I am waiting for the remark hoping that I get the 90-A*🤞
@@Qurann21 That is true but as a Spanish person I assure you that, except the Texts component, the other 3 are absolutely trivial exams for a Spanish native. The level of these components is so low that even the teachers want us to work on a higher level than what is required in the exam to keep us motivated. Therefore they teach us at the same level of Spanish schools (C2) which is quite superior compared to the A Level which is about a B2 (don’t think it reaches a C1). So yeah, that’s why it was incredibly frustrating. Now waiting for the remark 🤞🏻
