Fr same but eventually the whole idea of just understanding a topic in full detail is very satisfying which therefore allows you to learn more and understand new concepts
It’s because ur brain is probably already fried by the time ur studying. It’s best to study after waking up PROPERLY (like when ur no longer sleepy). Your “brain power” will be at an all time high because of the fact that there isn’t much that u have focused on yet. Try this, and just revise on topics or whatever u never seemed to fully understand in your classes. Good Luck on your exams :)
i’ve been unable to sleep, and came across your videos and holy shit you’ve opened my eyes to an entirely new perspective when it comes to GCSEs, genuinely amazing advice. Thank you so much
Is it possible for you to make a video about how to revise GCSE history effectively, as I havent really found any well explained guides and I like the short and effective style of your videos.
Like how do I actually revise, I just cannot do it. I have my last set of mocks next week and have done no revision. Last time I tried to do some I failed miserably.
Same over here. What I'm doing is going through those shortened but detailed videos ,on for example science, and taking thorough notes, do exam questions on the unit you have revised and you will get used to it, as well as past paper walkthroughs. May i suggest after these mocks creating a revision timetable where 2-3 hours a day of spread out revision of different subjects can help you regain the information and achieve higher grades. For these mocks, don't stress, just try your best from the simple notes and that can push you above a grade 5 to pass and higher in GCSES.
ur not meant to do all ur subjects per day. If ur starting to revise now I suggest do like 2 - 3 hours a day. Do maybe 1 - 3 subjects per day I prefer doing like 2 subjects a day and my entire revision is like 2-3 hours per day. Pretty chill.
btw i just wanted to ask do you think using flashcards on a language gsce is the best way to hypothetically memorize all the vocabulary you need for exams
hey, i got an 8 in French this year so I think I did decently good and know where I went wrong so here’s my two cents :): - flashcards are the best but depends how you use them. - if your doing GCSEs rn I would highly recommend as a minimum you download the specification’s mandatory and outlined vocabulary you need to know. Even things you might not have been explicitally taught in class is on there that your expected to know and at least you’ll know and familiarise yourself with the exam board’s style. This is especially most helpful for reading in which you’ll be able to reduce your problems solving and instead reserve that energy for the harder stuff as you already know what certain keywords are, reducing chance of error and misunderstanding. - in terms of topic vocabulary, I’d be careful how much you learn. You want to learn words that are both general and can be applied anywhere if you change certain things but also the “special” ones. For instance I still remember in the social media section of French AQA GCSE, the phrase “grâce à” was very popular (thanks to). The main point is don’t learn tooooo many words that you forget all of them. Having a wider breadth is good for reading but for writing it might just confuse you. I’d say have a certain bank of words for each topic that you know 100% you’ll be able to say and get marks on confidently. Eventually, start revising pre-made flashacrds specifc to your exam board. It’ll save you time and there’s so many on Quizlet!! You can also copy and edit these do you wish to add your own. This allows you start extending your breadth in vocab. But you need a baseline first before you start overwhelming yourself. I mentioned listening and reading before, and listening especially is sooo hard .. your exams are soon anyways and suggest you start doing practice. However when you’re marking or reviewing these, start making flashcards on really really tricky words you notice or have never seen. The more practice you do, the more you realise those words you’ll have seen before, even if you haven’t been taught it! This is because the exam board may like repeating stuff. And by being able to recognise these yourself, you’ll be ahead of the game from everyone else as you already have an idea of the tricky words yet everyone else hasn’t bothered to be exposed to them before and are thinking for longer and inaccurately in the exam. A slightly rushed advice post but I hope this helps :)
Hey I was wondering if I’m doing something wrong with my flash cards for science because I’ve made like 570 just for biology and it’s taking forever to actually do the flash cards any advice?
it can do to be honest but being dependant on the mark scheme won't secure a top grade, but it's about memorising the key facts of the answer to the question and implying it yourself to those exam questions again to make sure that you know how to answer it. Many people have used this way and if it benefits you then yes it can get you top grades, but don't be always reliant on just a mark scheme.
start now! By doing past papers it would define your strengths and weaknesses in a topic eg you struggle in paper 1 biology write the topics you got wrong and revise until you have a full understanding. Also by doing past papers you would know the exam structure very well. hope this helps👍
im so slow at learning. it literally takes me hours to write notes and flashcards and understand a topic.
Me too bro
Fr same but eventually the whole idea of just understanding a topic in full detail is very satisfying which therefore allows you to learn more and understand new concepts
It happens to me too. I think we need sleep and excercise( adrenaline) for better concentration.

I’m glad I could help 🤝🏽
Its kufr to sau that
@@clooxies2952no it’s not
this guy is single handedly saving my gcses
Thanks for the help man, I really appreciate it
Can you make a video on revision method for subject such as science or any other??

What’s ur exam board bc I have a sheet that shows how to answer all the questions for a grade 9 I do Edexcel
@@yvonneahamefule1669 mine is AQA
@@yvonneahamefule1669 Do you have any other grade 9 answers for any other subjects because I do AQA instead of Edexcel
Can you make a video on revision methods for subjects such as English literature or language? Any other subjects is fine, please.
Make a video on blurting i never really understood it
Thanks!
please make a video for people who struggle to wake up early to study

"start one month before mocks"
Me whose mocks started today
Btw nice video :)
How? As i spend 1hr just 4 biology!
ur not meant to do all ur subjects per day. If ur starting to revise now I suggest do like 2 - 3 hours a day. Do maybe 1 - 3 subjects per day I prefer doing like 2 subjects a day and my entire revision is like 2-3 hours per day. Pretty chill.
I spend a whole day just for bio 😭
Bro Ur just telling us not to make a revision timetable, how do u study, do u only do flashcards and do past papers

which unis did you apply to and get offers for? and for what course?
Hey I was wondering if I’m doing something wrong with my flash cards for science because I’ve made like 570 just for biology and it’s taking forever to actually do the flash cards any advice?
570 is insane how long did that take you
does revising the markscheme for science give u the top grades
it can do to be honest but being dependant on the mark scheme won't secure a top grade, but it's about memorising the key facts of the answer to the question and implying it yourself to those exam questions again to make sure that you know how to answer it. Many people have used this way and if it benefits you then yes it can get you top grades, but don't be always reliant on just a mark scheme.
if im taking IGCSEs would this program still help me ?
Yes it applies for both IGCSEs and GCSEs
hehe...pov: me n my irresponsible sleep schedule
When should I start doing full papers
start now! By doing past papers it would define your strengths and weaknesses in a topic eg you struggle in paper 1 biology write the topics you got wrong and revise until you have a full understanding. Also by doing past papers you would know the exam structure very well. hope this helps👍
Now
Right now is the time
