😂

same im year 13 not doing any stem subjects haha

lol

Lols welcome to the club😂

LMFAOOOOOOO

Hope I get the grades I need to do physics a level 🤞

If you look at the channel page, you'll see sections with the playlists divided into each paper.

anki is a really good app for flashcards

I'm not sure if this would necessarily be applicable to your subject, but I find that Quizlet is a useful app for making and reviewing flashcards. It's free (with ads) and if you get on well with it you might want to consider a subscription.

anki is good for flashcards because it uses spaced repetition, also quizlet is good

I recommend StudySmarter (also called Vaia)

man said 50 thats brazy

The best advice I can give you at this point is to temporarily reduce your extracurricular activities. Maybe pick one that you really want to do and put the rest on hold. Your exams will be finished by the end of June so you can then go back and do all the extracurricular activities that you want.

Shaun where is the smile right at the end of the video 😭

Do only football

I’ve been doing an hour and a quarter of revision each day since december so i soooo hope it pays off

Hi. My own view is that past papers are best left until you have revised the material. However, lots of students use them earlier than that. Perhaps try one earlier and see how it goes and then decide.

Many schools use past papers as mock exams and many schools make their mock exams by selecting individual questions.

Something to mention is that for mock examinations teachers may mainly use the 2023 past papers as teachers have access to them but not the general public

they do!

I'm not sure when the papers for may/june 2023 get published, but if they don't by the time you sit your mocks, the teachers will probably use them. Still, practising past papers is a very good way of understanding what the question is really asking for.

If its your actual GSCE mock, they may also use the 2023 mock paper that is only released about a week before GSCEs start, which you wont be able to find online. Either way, dont try to find the test beforehand, and just use older past papers for revision.

I think that the GCSEs in 2024 will be just as easy or difficult as 2023. Exam boards go to great lengths to try to ensure consistency from one year to the next. The reason that exam boards put past papers in a secure area is because many schools use them as mock exams.

2023 was kinda lucky imo

Hi. The first exams are in May so you have three months from now. That's plenty of time if you've already started. I cover how to make flashcards in my video "How to revise effectively."

For me, past papers work best once you've revised. Then do a paper, check the mark scheme and see if you missed anything. Go back and relearn that.

All my videos cover both higher and foundation tiers. If anything is specifically for higher or foundation, then that will be stated at the beginning of the video.

@@Freesciencelessons Ok than you very much sir

@@Freesciencelessons Hi Sir hope you are doing well, This has also been a big question of mine. If your videos cover both foundation and higher tier syllabus then what is the difference between them in terms of question papers and your videos. Thank you very much

I would say that you have a month before the first set of exams so use the time very wisely. You still have time to get excellent grades.

I can't say whether any specific person will jump grades but I do get comments from students who use my videos and do that. Work hard and do the best you can.

I think it also depends hoe you study. I think a great way to improve your grades fast is- Listen in lessons,(if your not shy anwser and ask questions,if you are anwser them in your head so you still engage). Do past paper/homework(your homework is what you have learnt/revision anyways) Understand what your learnign rather than memorisig first and dont cramp it all alot. Like first,figure what your strugglign on and what are the most / high marked questions.Prioitise them and the easy ones that you have learnt, test yourself on them every once in a while

I really cannot answer that question I'm afraid. I've taught A level Chemistry to students who achieved a 6 or 7 in GCSE Chemistry who went on to do very well at A level. I've also taught students who achieved very high grades at GCSE who struggled with A level. I would say that the key thing is to aim to do the best that you can do.

i'd say an 8 is a secured a level chemistry (same as I did) but again as Mr Shaun said it is possible to get a top at gcse chem and flop the a level. it all depends on how much you're committed to chemistry

Hi, I'm an A level chem student in second year. I'd say focus more on developing a good work ethic and discipline to study as it helps a lot going into the A-level already knowing how to study instead of spending the first few months looking at how to revise best. Also when studying gcse chem, make sure your study enables you to actually think and apply chem logic instead of just memorising words and numbers etc.

at my school they say a 7 is good for a level

well you normally need a grade 6 but aim for higher of course

There is always an equation sheet but normally it only has a small number of equations on it. The rest have to be learned. In 2024, students will get ALL the equations on their equation sheet. However, in 2025 the equation sheet will go back to normal (ie some but not all equations).

@@Freesciencelessons hi i did really bad in my mocks i got 1 2 3 4s 2 5s 4 6s is there still enough time to get 9s??

Working Scientifically is a topic at the beginning of all of the AQA science specs (Edexcel has something similar). It looks at how scientists work including how we assess the validity of data.

Will it award us any marks for knowing how to work scientifically?

Go to this page: www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/science Select your subject, then go to Assessment Resources and you will find the past papers.

Ok thanks sir

I have no plans to at the moment. I've never taught it before so I don't think I'd do a good job.

@@Freesciencelessons do you know of any good youtubers who simplify a level physics like you do with bio and chem? I'm applying for it and I think I'd do good in theoretical aspects but mathematical aspects of physics I'm not so confident in.

If you're struggling with A level physics, then the 2 best channels are science shorts and TL physics

thats honestly so sad because u are my fav yt channel for sciences and im picking alevel physics ;( my teachers dont teach i pass my exams coz of u ;( @@Freesciencelessons

Have faith in yourself Shawn!@@Freesciencelessons

I would suggest a small amount of revision now to get him started. Then once Year 11 starts, increase the amount.

Good luck

It's only a mock, do what you can, it will be a learning experience whether you do good or bad :)

how time goes so fast

chill mate he’s giving a free service and you have the gall to demand extra 😂

there are probably plenty of revision resources for that subject, you cant expect someone who has no experience in said field to make revision resources on it

I think that the exams are probably more or less as difficult as they're going to be. The only thing is that the 2024 students will be given all the Physics equations. From 2025, the equation sheets will go back to pre COVID (ie only a small number of equations), so students will have to learn the rest.

@@Freesciencelessons Thank you 🙏🏻

@@Freesciencelessonsso do you mean that we don’t have to learn any equation this year?

@@AkramAbram912 no, but learn the units they wont give u them
