    Thank you soo much for all of these videos, they've been more helpful than you even know! A lot of these types of videos tend to be redundant or oversaturated in terms of content because everyone says the exact same things. But, you're the first channel that actually gives general advice AND unique tips/resources that I never knew about. I do similar A levels to you and since watching these a few months ago my predicted has actually gone up 2 grades :)) I'm now predicted all A*s

    This is a helpful video and thankyou.
    My test will be in June 2024 and its home learning.
    I aim to study every day after work.
    How many hours per week would you recommend on revision? What do you personally believe is the hardest topic?

    • @luluhalim
      @luluhalim  ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I’m happy it was helpful! I aimed to study 5+ hours a day before the exam, and during normal days it would vary on the amount of work I had to do, but around 1-2 hours I’d say.
      In terms of the hardest topics, for me, I found y2 integration and the sequences a bit difficult.
      Good luck I hope it works out!

      Happy it helped! Depends really on the time, closer to mocks and exams it would be a few hours (3 to 7) but on other days it would vary depending on homework and how much work i have to catch up on. I would say focusing on what work you have to do and being efficient is more important than time overall ^.^

I didnt take Physics for my A levels though but took it for my igcses and got an A*... which paper do you think would be a better choice to opt for in terms of getting a higher score? I've heard that s2 is easier than s1 but has less resources on TH-cam while others say m1 is easier bc it's a less advanced course. thanks in advance :)

    • @luluhalim

      Heya, I would recommend looking at the information about A levels in the UCAS page (just type in what are A levels UCAS and it should come up). We use a letter grading system and A* is the highest grade, and usually people would do 3-4 subjects. There is a wide range of subjects (really anything you can think of), but it also depends on what your school offers. Hope this helps!🙌🏻
