i started year 12 this week, and after feeling a little stressed and demotivated, watching a few of your videos has really helped me feel more motivated and made a levels seem more manageable! thanks dude :)
Bro the thing you mentioned at the end about understanding before you made the flashcards is so crucial honestly. Makes a huge difference. Also this upload rate is 👌👌
yes, cause with biology I always come home and try to understand it, with the spec by my side. And doing a post exercise of the content we did in class. I'm getting demotivated though as I feel like I'm getting behind on all my subjects as of yesterday.
These videos are so helpful, you see I have just started year 12 and I am trying to keep on top of everything from the beginning, and your previous video and this one are extremely helpful, thanks and keep posting!
Hi Ray! Great video like always. Could you also do a video on how to make the most of your calculator at a levels, in terms of what all you could use it for? So that you avoid doing unnecessary calculations by hand, or check your answers? I've started using my calculator for more stuff, but I don't know if I'm utilizing it as much as I can, or missing out on stuff. (btw, im using the Casio fx-991 ex, like most people I think)
I briefly did mention a technique I found super useful in my video on achieving an A* in A-level maths but will try to brainstorm and think if there's anything else I can dive into which hopefully aren't too obvious
Are the techniques in this video and your other study videos 100% applicable to university level? I’m going to do sciences and I am aware that it is impossible to learn everything at uni. I really can’t imagine learning everything from lectures😖Please do a video about studying at uni! Especially on deciding what to learn. Thank you so much!!
Hi, so I take a slightly different approach and use an app called Remnote instead which is like Anki but I think it's better suited for concept-based subjects. There are a bunch of videos explaining how to use it online
Hmm? I'm not quite sure what you mean. I think a laptop was pretty much all I needed. Some people do get iPads (but I don't think they're particularly useful which I might explain in a future video)
Could I use only pre prepared flashcards as revision consistently(independent study) and then use my textbooks for further comprehension before later applying my understanding to topic questions Does this seem like a good revision routine
I think that it could be a little risky because I usually go understand -> memorise -> apply and it seems like you will be doing memorise -> understand -> apply. I have never tried it but you could do it for a topic or two and see how it works out. If you have time to do a little self-experimentation then go for it but, on the intuitive level I think that it won't work so well
Hi Ray Amjad, I wanted some advice from you basically I am currently in Year 12 doing 4 a-levels (maths, further maths, chemistry and physics) but what want to drop further maths (not finding it hard) since it is adding such a massive workload and taking up so much space on my timetable. However, I am worried this will decrease my chance of getting into Imperial College London, Bath and Leicester university for when I apply. Can you tell me if this will affect my chances.
@@ashfx1112 I want to do chemical or mechanical engineering and at the uni’s they say IF u do a fourth subject they prefer it to be further maths but I want to drop down to three and just do maths, physics and chemistry is that fine?
@@abdullahkashif465 I'm doing the same A-Levels as you, and my school does Further Maths as an As Level and then gives you the oppurtunity to carry it on into 2nd year, to complete the whole A Level. So maybe just do it as an As and drop it in year 2. But if you really dislike it, then you should drop it now.
@@abdullahkashif465 i mean, y12 just started so maybe take another week or two to decide, a levels are tough anway. unis do prefer it to be further maths but that is only if you do 4. as long as you have a decent personal statement and grades for ucas then you should be good for most unis.
@@bradleywilliams3121 it’s not that I dislike it, it’s just that it has such a massive work load as my school timetable is always filled up and I not getting enough time for all my subjects. Right now we are just doing pure and it is pretty easy I don’t find it hard just too time consuming that I can’t pay attention to all my subjects and am worried it may affect me as I could get 3 outstanding grades instead of 4 ‘meh’ grades, which I am really worried about

You're not alone ,in the first week it's going to feel a bit weird considering theres a bit of a jump from GCSEs to A levels.
Don't feel motivated, have a drive instead, motivation doesn't last
Same !!!

You read my mind. I was literally thinking about how am I supposed to remember all the content for my Alevels.
Bro same I was thinking the same thing and then boom this video pops up on this page
I’m resitting this year and all I can say is you are a lifesaver Ray thank you so much
These videos are so helpful, you see I have just started year 12 and I am trying to keep on top of everything from the beginning, and your previous video and this one are extremely helpful, thanks and keep posting!
My dude looks like a younger version of Ali Abdaal. Great content bro, helped a lot.
you are so consistent you deserve a lot more followers. keep up the good work
your videos always make my day, thank you for making them :)
also, I just wanted to say that find your voice so calming and engaging lol
Ah thank you so much, I'm so glad that you like them!!
You should have so many more subscribers!! Your advice is amazing:))
Perfect timing!👌

I would recommend watching the calculator guide he has some amazing videos

That's actually a good idea. There's a lot of tricks people don't know about. Especially for further maths
Love your channel honestly. So grateful for the advice thank you
Bravo. Excellent Explanation
Thank You! This video was super helpful!
NIce advice!
Thank you Ray :)
Brill vid love these type of vids thank you
You should create a discord :)
I'm a little clueless when it comes to Discord but maybe later in the future 😅
Hi could you make your anki decks public?
Please do more anki videos we need those. 😀👊🏻
For sure! I have one lined up about my favourite add-ons but I think I've covered most of the features well so far
is it just me or is phychology memorization?

@@RAmjad thank you for your reply :) I will search it up
could you share your decks for chemistry?
What devices do you use to study

I agree with ray. Use Seneca abd textbooks and then flashcards
Read the textbook first. Then flashcards
Best videos

im not ray but if you dont want to further maths, thats ok but it depends on what you want to do at uni

Is it possible to get access to your anki deck? :)
Yup, you can find the link to download them in the description of this video: th-cam.com/video/yoUW5qjw9yI/w-d-xo.html
