    hey! i hope all your exams went well! i guess you have two options you can either do some gentle revision now and throughout the holidays to remind yourself (you'll probably remember more than you think) or you can refresh your gcse content as you go along working your way through the a-level. tbh probably best tactic is that you could just do a week or two of reasonably internsive recap right before you start again to both get your brain back into the working mindset and get most of it back in your mind :)

    For practicals In the textbooks they have specific numbers allocated for different practicals do I need to remember those and use those exact values in my practical endorsements, is it that when I do my practical endorsement the examiner who is testing my understanding on how to carry out the experiment will give me the values for the task needed to perform the practical endorsement? I am doing alevels independently so I would love to know how the procedure is for the practical endorsement as I have emailed so many teachers but no one seems to be responding, was hoping you could help me know what is to be expected for the practical endorsement please❤

  • @yanr4n

    @yanr4n

    8 ай бұрын

    Hey! I can't give you an answer for sure because I did my practical endorsement in school rather than at home. When I did mine though, we didn't have to do the practical in 'exam conditions'. Before the practical, we wrote down equipment lists, methods and drew diagrams, which we were then allowed to look at during the experiment. If that doesn't happen for you, I can't confidently tell you that you don't have to memorise the specific numbers, so I would stay on the safe side and remember them. For the actual exam you'll need to remember everything to do with the practicals anyway (at least that was the case for AQA), so might as well get ahead and memorise them now :)

    Hey! If you're behind a bit I would focus on dedicating your time towards studying the actual content until you catch up, then work on the practicing more complex exam questions. It can be easy to fall back because of the volume of content, so you'll probably find it most helpful to study the chapters you're behind on now. Maybe every day you could do an hour where you study new content and then 30min-an hour where you do homework for class and some simpler practice questions to make sure you get the base content?
