  • @leviackerman5870
    @leviackerman5870 2 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    I think ny favourite tip will always be the redoing past papers until you get a certain mark. I actually do it after every test, from memory, and I found when I went through and read it properly, I often made really silly mistakes, e.g. subtracting vectors instead of adding. I'm going to get the A* no matter what:^))))

  • @shashirai1783
    @shashirai1783 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I think my favourite tip is having a proof exam book because it's one of the simpler marks to gain and is a topic that reoccurs often but I always miss out because I can never do the proof. Being able to memorise it in my opinion is very useful as well as repeating the exam paper because I just usually leave it after doing it once.

    My favourite tip was making my own proof book as I find memorising in maths more taxing for some reason just because there are so many details you need to remember. Thank you

    my favourite tip is the tailored tutors one I didn't have a maths teacher for a couple of months and the teaching on there is so good I HAVE TO GET AN A* :)))))

    I love the tip about repeating past papers until you get the grade you want! I usually just mark the paper and never loook at it again.
