I love how you just get straight to the point in your videos unlike others who just drag the video on for 15 mins. Thank you so much!! May God bless you and I hope your hands gets better soon In Shaa Allah 😊
Haha, this made me lol. I usually waffle a lot. Ameen, and May Allah help you reach your goals and more
@@Ucademy ameen :)
@@khadijaahmed5355 It's funny how IGCSE exams would be almost completed by the time you start yours, like we would only have 5-6 left when you start,lol😂
I've been using your advice from easter to do 4 subjects which I have for the weekends and fridays, instead of doing 2 subjects on the weekdays I've managed to perfectly fit in a 3rd subject because ideally you can do 1 subject per hour which is enough to complete a paper now alhamdullillah
Alhamdullilah
Yes i agree with you especially as an A level biology student this works so well with aqa. Most questions are so similar and the points in mark scheme are almost identical that if u understand the concept of the topic and just learn how the examiners want you to answer by esentially memorising mark schemes you will do well
sending so many prayers your way in'shaa'allah you'll feel better soon,, so so grateful for your effort and content!!x
Ameen, so so appreciated
thank you! that actually gives me motivation to revise now, ive been putting it off for so long until now, exactly a week until my first exam 😭🙏 and i liked and subbed :)
Aww really means a lot.
me too you're not alone🥲
@AK What do you you want to know English?
jazakallah for your video bro, love how straight forward you are and your calm manner and patience 🙂
Wa iyak my bro
Going to try this for all 3 Psychology papers cuz ik minimal content and I shall come back and update on results day.
Awesome.
im starting revision today, rs exaxm tomorrow 💪
Got a video for you:
ruclips.net/video/dzuRLpbRU0A/видео.html
This method you propose has given me such a push to try my best this final week. But I am just slightly unsure how I’d apply to my A-level subjects: economics, geography (which needs case studies but they aren’t explicitly mentioned in the mark scheme), and business.
If you leave A-levels to the last minute, you are likely not going to achieve a good grade. I have not revised business at all and I fully know I am not getting a grade above a B. Hopefully I will get A and A in maths and economics since I have worked on those for the last few months now
Look at the examiner report for model essay and use their case study they used
@@FLAMEalan geez mate no need to sound so positive and optimistic now
@@Stelhfs-gq5rs ah thank you for that, appreciate it
Ofc do u have any memorization tips to memorize economics content. I been neglecting the paper 2 stuff
I can't stop laughing the last bit 🤣..... I will definitely subscribe
Totally true. I stopped going school while the other Beta Males are still going. They called my Dad asking where I am, he told them I am revising at home 😂😂. They said "No Problem" and gave me "Legal Study Leave". Secondly, PPQs, same, just looked at the MS and added to my notes (Even if it isnt neat). Best way of saving time
Me too but the days I missed I wasted time..
you got the question wrong
Its 1/2 pie r +120 because the rectangle has two sides and you have only accounted for one
My answer is the same…
Look again it says 60+60 at 3:08,
That’s what my wife wrote for me (since I can’t write). If I was writing it myself it would have been a bit clearer - apologies.
Glad you actually worked it out btw, appreciate the msg!
@@Ucademy no problem brother
Was literally just waiting for this 😅
JazakAllah'Khair
Wa iyak
@Ucademy i have my As level exams on October 9 i do 3 subjects chem,bio and ph and I don’t know much
Should i follow this pls reply 🥲
Sorry been off youtube for a while, as you probably noticed. I suppose yes you should have followed it, but note this is a short term solution and you need to look at longer term plans for the rest of AS and Alevels.
@Ucademy, so basically when doing a paper we should skip questions we know to save time and questions we dont know, attempt them and look at the markcheme and memorise its answer. Oh yeah, for questions we dont know we go and revise the topics. Is that about right? I'll also just go through the new spec papers because its impossible to finish old spec with the time left.
For questions you don’t know ask someone - don’t revise. Don’t have time!
@@Ucademy Ok
@@Ucademy ask who? 😭
@@hijabiixgirll Teacher/Tutor/Friend anyone who knows
Hey bro, so if i want to revise for biology paper 1 and do this method from the the past papers of 2018 to 2022, do i do this again on another day and also do i go through all the years in 1 day or every 2 day or something?
So it depends on what other subjects you're doing but yes something like that sounds reasonable, I would also look up on old spec papers for further practice
bro, this is the only video that isnt completely useless
Bro got a A* in English , that ending made me subscribe
I really needed this. For making a cheat sheet, et's say you get a 3 mark question about mitosis wrong, what would you put on your cheat sheet? Just a summarised version of the mark scheme that you can learn? Also, what would you do for subjects like geography where you have to remember tonnes of facts and statistics?
Hey so the idea would be that you would make did cheat sheet on every mark (so that is three bullet points for the mitosis question). You don't want to summarise the mark scheme, it should already be the most simplified version.
bro I've improved my grade more from my last comment using your advice, but I still want to improve more, did you legit, go from like Us to A/A* in a week using this method, what should I do if I don't understand the mark scheme (for Further Maths) and I can't seem to ask a teacher, we are on study leave and teachers take some time to reply by email.
Hi, do you think i can do the same for a-level maths and chem?
We had modular tests when I would study, so not for the full Alevel. But yes, I did do it but for partial Alevel.
Ask friends/Tutors/ student room/ Reddit forums
Inshallah u will pass
i have assessments within a 2 week span in 3 weeks, i have a one week half term the week before i start however i need to cover practically every topic in every subjects as i’ve forgotten most things. Whats the best method to cover the most topics per subject? so far ive been going through past lessons and relearning the lesson but its going very slow.
If you have a couple of weeks (I would follow this advice instead) ruclips.net/video/t9NGOur128U/видео.html
Hi, hope you recover quickly and thanks for the video. Do you have any idea what I could do if I my school doesn’t give study leave and I feel like I won’t have enough time if I go.
Thanks, yes you are right so just skip school. They can't do much at this stage if you don't attend.
@@Ucademy lol , not allowed to
@@Ghost-fh3lg Says who?
@Ucademy, so im working at an 8 for science and maths, so in my scenario should i just watch a brief video that covers all the content then do questions after every topic for e.g. after i learn homeostasis and response i do a topic test on it. and for maths should i just do the topics im getting the least amount of marks from. Finally can you make a video on subjects where you have to know a lot of content for e.g. RE/History, since doing the rutta method will only work if there is less content but these subjects require you to know so much but barely ask you questions on them and also especially for history its really hard to find the 20% to get the grade you want. thanks for these videos
how did you get an 8 for both i would like grade around there for both so do you have any tips?
@@juventusfan4873 maths - find a paper with every topic in it, do it, see what u got wrong, watch vids on how to do it. Science - do what the vid says
It’s about Essay plans for Essay based subjects . There are only a number of limited general principles (eg Justice) you need to know but there are a million examples for each of those. You are confusing eg with principles.
Go through the past papers as discussed in video and learn the essay plans for each question asked in any previous paper ever asked for your exam board.
Then the final bit is getting feedback on your gaps from a teacher. External feedback is important
@@rayhanuddin6180 thanks! do you think for maths i can go from a 4 to 7 in 1 week and same for science?
@@juventusfan4873 yes, but you need to stop thinking about grades at this moment in time, just do as much as you can rn then whatever grade that is you can say to yourself that you tried your best
Insha Allah
thank you for this,for science how do we boost our grades in just a few days?
@@ifty873 thanks!
The advice by Ifty above is great except I wouldn’t watch freescience lesson I would ask someone the exact question instead to save time
@@Ucademy thank you! like a teacher?
@Juventusfan Yep, or friend or Tutor or sibling - anyone who knows.
For learning the mark scheme, is rote learning the way to go. I tried it last week and it took me so long to learn just a bit of the mark scheme. Do you recommend making notes or flashcards when trying to learn new content?
Skim through until u see a part u dont understand,
@@mokbane5169 wdym?
@@urbrofromclass1222 I think mokbane misunderstood your query.
For memorisation Rote learning/Flash cards and Mnemonics are best.
Speed is also dependent on how well trained your memory muscle is. If you hardly used it before don't expect it fire on all cylinders day 1!
Keep at it!
@@Ucademy When should I use flashcards if I am going to mainly use rote learning? Do you recommend anki or physical flashcards?
Flashcards are better for shorter quantity of items like definitions. I have no preference is over either Anki/physical. Depends what's easier for you.
for the science questions with a star/asterisk (normally 6 markers), how would we recognise the focus of the question? - its always different every year, and the focus is mostly from an unexpected subtopic - kindly suggest
So the focus is either multiple topics combined to make 6 marks or some long experiment/phenomena like How a loud speaker works.
Either case you need to have seen the topic before to recognise it. It’s like asking me how you would recognise your friend (because you seen them before … many times)
@@Ucademy okay, thanks sir
i havent started revising due to being so overwhelmed with work. my politics teacher is wanting us all to fail and hasnt even taught us how to write an exam paper. for business, i havent had the best grades but i know what to improve and for sociology i am cruising. really not sure how i will do though, a levels are killing me
Still time to improve Alevel grades. You got this - don't rely on school if you want good grades.
@@Ucademy inshAllah, realistically think i can achieve A or A* in sociology, A if im lucky for business but probably B and politics is not looking good. not sure how i can improve it due to very limited resources online
Inshallah,
1. Stick to the official mark scheme and examiners report (That should be sufficient).
2. See if you know anyone that score A or a stars in politics and see what resources they used for it.
I was getting study leave for all week however on Tuesday and Wednesday I have to go in for an art exam so 2 days wasted 😭
Ah that sucks… but go smash that Art exam
@@Ucademy thanks
It’s annoying because our teacher kind of messed our art GCSEs and then component 2 we have to do tomorrow
Tbh I ain’t even bothered about art i think I can get a grade 4/5 which is alr arts a waste of time too
I need to focus on core subjects I was planning to have all week wake up early and focus however this teacher ruined the plan 😭
@@hijabiixgirll Fear not, God does not burden a soul more than it can bear. You can do this inshallah :)
@@Ucademy in Sha Allah
Remember me in ur duas pls
how do you create a cheat sheet for text based subjects like business or computer science where they ask you to define words out of multiple words in the syllabus
You simply put down the word and the definition.
Now you can learn a cheat sheet using Rote learning or flashcards.
My first biology exam is June 7th so you recommend I do this or actually do some papers and also is this the same for chemistry?
Good question. Do this instead:
ruclips.net/video/t9NGOur128U/видео.html
@@Ucademy thank you I actually watched this earlier today that’s why I wasn’t sure what to do lol
What if I don’t know content like for chemistry/physics? Also what if my memory is rlly bas
Gets better with practice. Memorisation over understanding at this stage. Best of the worst situation.
@@Ucademy truee in sha Allah I get 5😔
is B to an A possible for physics a level in 1 week? i am planning to do 4 past papers for physics every single day on that last week.
Yes absolutely
@@Ucademy i am on the same grade for chemistry and maths. is it possible to go from B to an A* for a level chem(4 weeks) and maths(3 weeks) which is in about 4 weeks time . i am planning to do 4 past papers for chem and maths as well everyday up until exams insha allah. maybe a bit more for maths because i love doing maths.
@@Spacekid_Productions nice congrats. but isnt that old spec?
bruh where was this when i needed it
You got this
Any advice if I am still struggling with memorising some parts of the content and my GCSEs are next week?
What method you using to memorise?
The more you memorise the better your brain becomes at memorising
same😭😭
@@Ghost-fh3lg What method?
@@Ucademy rehearsal , reading information . It takes too much time to write, only write things out when I need to simplify it
👍👍
@Ucademy, making sure im doing the right thing. Im going through papers from 2018-2022, and Im just copy and pasting the question & answer from the past paper into Anki, and I just memorise them. Am I doing it right?
No, only the questions/answers you don't know.
@@Ucademy Oh ok. I guess for me that would be graph questions and 4-6 markers in science.
@@jouad5611 so you don't want to just copy the answers rather how to solve graph questions. For example look for trends, read the labels, before turning points, use the numbers mentioned+ text information, instantaneous rate etc
@@Ucademy Yeah I understand. I also wanted to ask you about the past paper topic questions on PMT? The quesions are the exact same ones in the past papers, but sorted by topic. I was thinking of doing them instead of full papers. Your thoughts?
@@jouad5611 You can do them if you want, I prefer to do papers
how to revise for A-level English language with only 16 days left :( ive not revised at all pls help me I need a B to get into uni
Start today. Best time to start was 2 years ago, the next best time is today.
I will speak to a few friends/tutors on ideas as not my area of expertise, but essay plans for each question would have been my approach.
Any advice for law alevel not done any revision!!
Pray 🙏, but as previously mentioned not my area of expertise for such short notice other than the generic advice already in the video
how would this be done for essay based subjects like history/english?
Think you found the answer in another comment
@@Ucademy yuppp thank you!
is it not better to be doing the practice papers urself to see what you know?
Yes, in an ideal world. But now is the time to cut your losses (assuming you are in year 11).
Maybe a few to test yourself, but much more important to have memorised all the patterns.
yh but how would u kno if you dk the content
How would you know what? The mistake identify what content you need to prioritise learning.
Would this also work for subjects like Cs
Yes, I did CS for Alevel and it works for that too.
Hi, just a few questions I wanted to ask. What if something that hasn't come up from the 2018-2022 papers comes up in my exams? I wouldn't know how to answer it. You said not to revise content, but what if it is an application question like for biology. If I haven't understood the content, how would you get the marks for that. And if the questions won't be the same so how will learning the markscheme help. Thirdly, in terms of actually memorising the mark scheme. I tried your method of rote learning but it takes a very long time to learn things. I spent an 1 hour today trying to learn 3 pages from a revision guide. Is there something I'm doing wrong or is there a better way? Lastly, what do you mean by pattern recognition? I don't understand how you could do well without learning the content?
Sorry I've written so much, I'm so stressed and I don't know what to do.I hope you can help. I hope you can help.
Don't stress, if this method doesn't work for you it's alright. Everyone has a different way of learning effectively. What I did was google revision methods and spent 1 day testing which was the best for me. Then I employed the best working ones. Remember that if something that you are not sure about comes up on the test, the best thing to do is either guess or just write down everything you know about the question, and hope that you get a few marks. Trust me if you put the effort in now, you don't have to worry about anything, come results day. Because you know that you have grinded out the exams + remember that the exams are spread out across 2ish months, so don't worry, you have a bit more time than you think (don't procrastinate tho!)
@@ProfessorSlimezz What revision method worked for you? I don't know if I should learn the content first before doing past papers or do past papers now. Since I only have 1 week to go, I don't have enough time. It would take me 5 hours or something to learn 1 topic of biology, which means that I won't have time for my other subjects. I tried a past paper and I'm only on 40%, which is not where I want to be with 1 week to go.
@@FlyingChickens-mh7bg me personally, I am able to bang out 1 topic in science in arround 1 day (it's all about mindset, I guarantee you know more than u think). I did the entire of paper 2 bio in like 3 days, and went from 2 marks to 28 marks, which is pretty good considering it was 3 days and the paper is out of 70, but to answer the question I used Seneca learning to do that, it's free btw so u don't need to pay. All u gotta do is choose the right course, then pick which ever topic + begin revising. There is also cognito which is really similar but easier to use and focuses more on videos.
@@FlyingChickens-mh7bg 40% is a solid start, shows u know the fundamentals - trust me dude u are gonna do great, check your paper to see the biggest weaknesses, like are you dropping marks on the 6 mark questions or just generally not understanding what the question is asking
@@ProfessorSlimezz Thank you so much for your help!
Does thus apply on science aswell?
Yes 100%
Does this apply to GCSE Geography?
Probably a bit late but yes.
@@Ucademy Ironically today my Geog Paper 3 exam was the worst exam I ever had - I missed out a 9 marker and a lot of unseen fieldwork
Can I get 3s, 4s and 5s to 6s and 7s if I do this?
I don’t see why not. But depends on how many subjects/how far from the next grade etc?
Does this method work for business?
Yes should do, with case studies be sure to learn the general principles rather than specific answer for the queries
Does this work for a level maths perhaps?
Yes, I did it for Alevel Maths to get A*.
But you have sometime for Alevel Maths (June)?
@@Ucademy yeah I do. I am unsure of any other good tactics.
A broader and more applicable plan here: ruclips.net/video/t9NGOur128U/видео.html
I don’t have study leave 💀💀💀💀
Take it! They can’t do anything about it
I’m taking a week off this week
Yes :)
@@Ucademy My parents wont allow me to take a week off and I have no study leave whatsoever. I have strict parents since I'm based on a south Asian household, what do I do?
Show them my video? Maybe seeing me explain it might convince them. But explain to them that school is teaching generic content + you need to focus on papers. Bring it back to their pain point... getting you good grades.
Otherwise you make the most of your circumstances.
what the hell on earth😂
